Disco Elysium is a stylish open-world role-playing game in which players decide what sort of detective they want to be. After waking up in a trashed hostel room with a hangover and no memory of his past, follow a detective trying to piece his life back together while investigating a murder in the town of Revachol. After initially appearing to be an open and closed case, it soon transpires that this murder has triggered a chain of events that has wider implications for the city and its inhabitants. Death, sex, taxes, and disco – nothing is off the table. Revachol is a real place with real challenges. Players can solve the massive murder investigation or relax and kick back with sprawling side cases. The detective decides, and the citizens abide.
