While we wait to find out if there will really be less space for the horror genre in the future of Frictional Games, the developers have distributed a new update for Amnesia The Bunker, with which the title welcomes a new level of difficulty.
L’Amnesia The Bunker update 1.31 contributes to introducing a series of improvements for the general quality of life of the horror experience, which should now be more enjoyable, stable and fluid. Scrolling through the patch notes of the update, we also discover how the developers thought of adding the difficulty “Very easy“, perhaps to accommodate those users who find it particularly difficult to approach the horror genre. Below are the most important changes of patch 1.31:
Added new difficulty “Very Easy”; An activation/deactivation mode dedicated to the camera inclination has been implemented; Increased subtitle font size with “Very Large” option; Camera shake disabled when “Reduced camera motion” is enabled; Improved the aesthetics and readability of some photos; Fixed an issue where the flashlight could remain lit when item use toggle mode was enabled; Fixed an issue with the fuse interaction icon in the Officer Hub; Fixed an issue that made it difficult to obtain the “Toot Sweet” achievement when playing at 120 FPS.
The developers explained via a post on X|Twitter that, by selecting the new difficulty, “all sliders in the custom settings are take it down a notch from normal easy mode“.
