Omensight is an action role-playing game developed and published by Canadian studio Spearhead Games, and is the spiritual successor to Stories: The Path of Destinies.[1] It was released for Microsoft Windows and PlayStation 4 on May 15, 2018, and is set to launch for Nintendo Switch on December 13, 2018.[2]

Described by the developer as an "Action Murder Mystery" game, the player primarily takes the role of the Harbinger, a mythical warrior who only appears in times of crisis, and as a dark god destroys the world of war-torn Urralia. In order to save the world, the Harbinger must use their Omensight power to go back in time, reliving the final day to investigate a series of events that led to the murder of a priestess. The Harbinger comes across four other playable characters which are the key to solving the crisis.
