A third-person narrative title led by Italian theater director turned game creator Paolo Sacerdoti, Specto Studio’s Hail Macbeth is set to provide a bold new interactive adaptation of Shakespeare’s classic tragedy.

Hail Macbeth will set out to reimagine the relationship between player, character, and fate, prioritizing storytelling over mechanics.

As a result, each interaction in Hail Macbeth will enhance the experience, rather than dictating play. On that note, this adaptation will challenge players to navigate a world where choices feel both personal and inevitable, bringing new layers of meaning to one of literature’s most haunting tales.

Paolo Sacerdoti said the following:

“Macbeth is the perfect intersection of action and introspection.

Its themes of fate and free will feel uniquely suited to an interactive experience. That tension between control and inevitability is what drives Hail Macbeth, making players complicit in a story they can’t change. 

I’ve always been drawn to video games for their ability to create deeply personal, immersive storytelling experiences. 

Coming from theater, I see Hail Macbeth as an opportunity to explore that potential—giving Shakespeare lovers a way to discover the power of interactive storytelling, and gamers a fresh way to engage with one of the greatest stories ever told.”
