AI companionship

Salix Games will release Limerence, a narrative experience co-developed with Gameinaframe, for PC on October 29, 2026. Players will assume the role of Claire, who, after experiencing personal loss, engages with an AI relationship app called LiAIson to create a partner named Kai. The game explores themes of human connection versus AI companionship, focusing on the implications of a relationship based on emotional needs rather than genuine human interaction. Key features include a simulated smartphone interface, relationship-building with the AI companion, decision-making that affects Claire's emotional journey, and the exploration of digital life and its truths.
