**Updated**: The video has been made publicly available again, so this is now official information rather than a leak.

Original news text:

Before the full launch of the third **»Pathologic,»** the developers from **Ice-Pick Lodge** will present a small demo featuring a prologue titled [Pathologic 3: Quarantine](https://store.steampowered.com/app/3389330/Pathologic_3_Quarantine). The demo will be released on [Steam](https://store.steampowered.com/app/3389330/Pathologic_3_Quarantine) on March 17. The exact release date was revealed in a [recent trailer](https://youtu.be/jXo5_CrY-sM), which has since been restricted. It appears the trailer was inadvertently published ahead of schedule.

One of the standout features of the demo is the opportunity to visit the Capital for the first time personally. Through gameplay, players will learn the setup of the main storyline and familiarize themselves with the key gameplay mechanics. As previously mentioned, **Pathologic 3** is a remake of the Bachelor Dankovsky’s campaign from the original **»Pathologic.»** However, this is not a straightforward retelling, as the trilogy includes new elements such as an ambitious time travel mechanic and detailed examinations of the sick.

**Pathologic 3** is expected to be released this year on PC ([Steam](https://store.steampowered.com/app/3199650/Pathologic_3/)), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series. The trilogy will also be available for free to all backers who supported **Ice-Pick Lodge** on Kickstarter or the «Niti» platform during the fundraising for [Pathologic 2](https://stopgame.ru/to?https%3A%2F%2Fstore.steampowered.com%2Fapp%2F3199650%2FPathologic_3%2F).
