Until Dawn developer, Supermassive Games, has introduced a brand new multiplatform horror anthology collection with Bandai Namco.
The Dark Pictures is a horror anthology collection being developed by Supermassive Games and Bandai Namco, and the developer has introduced that the primary of the standalone, cinematic horror episodes, Man of Medan, will launch in 2019.
Man of Medan tells the story of 4 Americans who take a ship and her captain out to sea to pilfer the wreckage of a WWII aircraft. The journey out is the calm earlier than the storm – fairly actually on this case – as all hell breaks unfastened on board as soon as they begin poking round.
Players can run via the game as every of the 5 characters, and there are branching storylines, completely different paths, and a number of endings.
“We are incredibly excited to announce the Dark Pictures Anthology and the first game in the series – Man of Medan.

“The Dark Pictures, is the first example of a horror anthology series within the video game world, which positions gaming to a style closer to [fans’] favourite TV shows with new, standalone experiences brought to [them] on a regular basis. It’s a bold new model, but one we believe fans of both gaming and horror will love,” added Bandai Namco’s VP of Digital and Marketing, Hervé Hoerdt.
Yesterday, it was found that Supermassive Games had trademarked Shattered State, and matched with the Gamescom website teasing a brand new IP from Bandai Namco and a European studio, we speculated that it may need been a brand new game from the 2 corporations.
