Release Date
The Dark Pictures Anthology is developed by the Supermassive Games as a collection of different games that tackle various themes and horror styles.

Publisher Bandai Namco Entertainment publicly revealed the game on 14 April 2020. The game will be available for Windows, PS4, and Xbox One on 30 October 2020.
Gameplay
Trapped and stranded in the desolate town of Little Hope, four college students and their teacher are unable to flee the nightmarish apparitions that unceasingly chase them across an impenetrable fog.
