During the recent E3 event, THQ Nordic kept a lot of its IPs secret from the public, but reports of the studio working on a horror game have been circulating for a while. Finally, the developers decided to reveal exactly what the game is and it seems to be a reboot of the classic point-and-click adventure game, The Black Mirror from 2003.
For those who don’t know about the original game, it’s an isometric point-and-click game. Players take on the reins of the protagonist, David Gordon as he explores his family mansion, Engadget reports. The adventure was set off by the death of his father, which then leads him through a series of events in gothic horror style.
Looking at the teaser trailer that the studio released, it seems the new game will retain much of the atmosphere around the original game. It also provides plenty of hints of what players can expect, including intense psychological disturbance.
There have actually been sequels to the game in the past, Cinemablend reports. One came out in 2009 and another in 2013, neither of which could capture the intensity and fan dedication directed at the first game. For this revival, THQ Nordic enlisted the help of King Art Games, which is a promising development in and of itself.
This game is also not the studio’s first foray into the gothic realm of video games. The Metro series and the Darksiders franchise are both arguably dark and depressing, albeit fun to play.
Set to launch on November 28th for the Xbox One, PlayStation 4, PC, and Mac, players have plenty of to look forward to in The Black Mirror’s release. This is especially true of fans of the horror genre, as well as those with the odd fascination in just how many ways a protagonist can die.
