Publisher Bandai Namco and developer Supermassive Games have released the reveal trailer and new screenshots for The Dark Pictures Anthology: Little Hope, the second entry in The Dark Pictures Anthology due out for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC via Steam this summer.
“We’re really excited to talk more about Little Hope!” said Supermassive Games CEO and The Dark Pictures Anthology executive producer Pete Samuels in a press release. “As the second chapter in The Dark Pictures Anthology, Little Hope is an all new and disturbing story for players to experience. Whether they are playing alone or with friends we can’t wait for players to get their hands on the Little Hope this summer.”
Here is an overview of the game, via Bandai Namco:
In Little Hope, abandoned and all alone, four college students and their professor are trapped by a mysterious fog in the isolated eponym town. They search desperately for a means of escape whilst visions from the town’s occult-steeped past haunt them from the shadows. In order to stay alive, they must uncover the mysteries behind these relentlessly-pursuing dark apparitions before evil forces drag each of their souls to hell!
Players can take the role of each of the five protagonists of this brand-new cast, one of them being represented by Will Poulter. Like the first game, Man of Medan, Little Hope is designed to be replayable with multiple storylines, paths and endings. Each decision will matter and can have repercussions on who survives or meets their demise!
The Curator, the omniscient figure voiced by Pip Torrens which overarches the series, will be back to witness the progress of players, giving them an occasional “hint” if they wish so. The Shared Story mode and the Movie Night mode, allowing multiple players to share their story online or offline, will also return as game modes, alongside the standard Theatrical Cut and the Curator’s Cut. The latter will be available earlier as a pre-order bonus.
Watch the trailer below. View the screenshots at the gallery.
