To get us in the mood for the upcoming release, THQ Nordic made another trailer for the horror reboot “Alone in the Dark” available for viewing. This time it's all about the residents of the mansion and their reactions to the two main characters.
After a further postponement, which the developers are using for the final polish, the reboot of the horror classic “Alone in the Dark” will be released for the PC and consoles next month.
To sweeten the wait until the release a little, THQ Nordic made another trailer for “Alone in the Dark” available for viewing. The trailer called “Into the Madness” revolves around the manor house and its residents. The developers also show us the way in which the residents react to the two protagonists.
As is well known, in “Alone in the Dark” we take control of two playable characters. The detective Edward Carnbey, known from various other series spin-offs, and the young Emily Hartwood.
As the trailer makes clear, the residents react differently depending on which characters you are playing.
A classic returns
According to the responsible developers at Pieces Interactive, “Alone in the Dark” is a modern reinterpretation of the survival horror classic published in 1992. The story of the reboot takes place in the 1920s, in which Emily Hartwood's uncle disappeared under mysterious circumstances.
Together with detective Edward Carnby, Emily sets out to find her uncle. In an old mansion, the two discover a dark secret. When the protagonists arrive at Derceto Manor, a home for the mentally exhausted, they encounter strange residents, portals to nightmarish worlds and dangerous monsters.
In terms of gameplay, the developers attach great importance to exploring the game world. In addition, as in the original, there are quite tricky puzzles and a grippingly staged story. There is optional help so that even newcomers can find their way around. The associated features include, among other things, optional hints in the area of puzzles.
“In the Gothic American South, you control one of our two protagonists. Play as Edward Carnby or Emily Hartwood. Explore your surroundings, fight monsters and solve puzzles to uncover the true secret of Derceto Manor,” says the official description of the horror reboot.
“Alone in the Dark” will be released on March 20, 2024 for PC, PS5 and Xbox Series X/S.
