Supermassive’s space horror adventure, and the next game in the Dark Pictures Anthology, Directive 8020 is set to launch on 2nd October this year. Just in time for the spooky season!
As an alien organism that seems to be able to mimic other life invades a colony ship, you’ll have to try to find any way to survive that you can. This is one small step and a giant leap forward for the franchise, switching things up with persistent real-time threats, new stealth mechanics, and enhanced interactive cinematics. It’s all powered by Unreal Engine 5.
The game will feature Hollywood actor Lashana Lynch who you may have caught in Bob Marley: One Love or the superb The Woman King.
Here’s more from Supermassive:
“Earth is dying and humanity is running out of time. 12 light years from home, Tau Ceti f offers a small sliver of hope. When the colony ship Cassiopeia crash lands on the planet, its crew soon realize they are far from being alone.”
“Hunted by an alien organism capable of mimicking its prey, the crew of the Cassiopeia must outwit their pursuers to make it home alive. As they battle to survive, they are confronted with the hardest choice of all: to save themselves, they must risk the lives of everyone on Earth. In space, death takes many forms.
- Next-Gen Cinematic Survival Horror – Experience immersive cinematic storytelling and edge-of-your-seat horror on a deep space mission to save humanity.
