THQ Nordic and Pieces Interactive have announced the release of their horror-survival game Alone in the Dark, a faithful reimagining of the original which was released in 1992. Set in the gothic American south in the 1920’s, Alone in the Dark features a noir-setting with classical Lovecraftian horror-elements, where the familiar meets the surreal.
Set in the haunting Derceto Manor, players take on the roles of Emily Hardwood and Edward Carnby, portrayed by Jodie Comer (Free Guy, Killing Eve) and David Harbour (Stranger Things). Together, they must unravel the disappearance of Emily’s uncle, delving deep into the secrets that shroud the manor’s dark past. Alone in the Dark challenges players to solve puzzles and to confront terrifying entities along the way to uncover the truth.
To bring the chilling atmosphere of Alone in the Dark to life, content creators were invited to experience a real-life haunted house, mirroring the horrors found within the game. Armed with GoPros and CCTV cameras, they embarked on 60 to 90 minute runs, capturing spine-tingling moments. Watch the Alone in the Dark In Real Life video here:

The Digital Deluxe Edition includes the base game, Derceto 1992 Costume Pack, Vintage Horror Filter Pack, and the Director’s Commentary Mode.
