It's been a long trip, but Prominence is finally nearing its destination, and today marks the first live glimpse of the upcoming sci-fi mystery in a new trailer.

In Prominence, the Letarri have launched a mission to colonize a distant planet, but something has gone terribly wrong. You'll awaken aboard a hi-tech facility of some kind, alone and unsure what has happened or even who you are. Only by exploring can you piece together "an evolving mystery that is revealed by physical clues, audio recordings, data archives, and a damaged central computer system in need of repairs."



The video offers a first-hand look at the facility, highlighting the panoramic, first-person presentation that will carry you through the adventure. Where you go and what you do will have an impact on the outcome as well, as Prominence promises a branching storyline and multiple endings.

Following several years in development, Prominence is now on course for a release some time in 2011. For more details in the meantime, beam on over to the official website.
