Close to the Sun is a first-person horror adventure video game developed by the Italian video game producer Storm in a Teacup and published by the British company Wired Productions. Developed using the Unreal Engine, the game was released in May 2019 for Microsoft Windows and in October 2019 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One and Nintendo Switch.

In the game, the player guides a journalist named Rose Archer, who seeks to save her sister, Ada. Set in an alternate reality in 1897, the two prominent inventors Nikola Tesla and Thomas Edison fight for technological predominance on the globe. Close to the Sun almost exclusively takes place on the colossal sea cruiser "the Helios"; operated by Tesla, it serves as a hub for the world's most successful scientists and inventors.

The game was noted for its many similarities with the BioShock series. It received praise for its creative concept, its enthralling narrative, and its rich and imposing environment, but distaste for its rather mediocre to frustrating gameplay, especially when it comes to running away or solving puzzles.
