Fact check: 11bit Studio just dropped the launch trailer for The Alters feature the song We Might Be Dead By Tomorrow by SOKO and it is freaking epic.

Checked on June 9, 2025

1. Summary of the results

The statement is accurate in its core claims. Multiple sources confirm that 11 Bit Studios has released the launch trailer for The Alters featuring SOKO's song "We Might Be Dead By Tomorrow" [1] [2] [3]. The game is scheduled for release on June 13, 2025 [1], and will be available on multiple platforms including PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox Game Pass [2].

2. Missing context/alternative viewpoints

The original statement omits several important pieces of context:

  • The trailer was specifically unveiled during the PC Gaming Show [4]
  • The game's development has been in progress since 2020 [3]
  • The game features a sci-fi survival premise centered around the protagonist Jan Dolski, who creates alternate versions of himself on a distant planet [1]
  • The project is considered particularly ambitious for 11 Bit Studios [3]
  • The game will be available on Xbox Game Pass at launch, which is a significant distribution detail [2]

3. Potential misinformation/bias in the original statement

While the statement itself contains no misinformation, its subjective assessment of the trailer as "freaking epic" is purely opinion-based. The statement also:

  • Fails to mention the broader context of the game's development journey since 2020 [3]
  • Doesn't acknowledge the game's complex narrative themes and gameplay mechanics [4]
  • Omits the significant detail about the multi-platform release strategy [2]

Multiple stakeholders could benefit from this announcement:

  • 11 Bit Studios benefits from positive pre-release hype
  • Microsoft benefits from the Xbox Game Pass inclusion
  • SOKO potentially benefits from increased exposure of their music through the trailer
