Undoubtedly, one of the most anticipated new releases in the horror genre this year is the relaunch of Alone in the Dark. This franchise joins other successful games, such as Resident Evil and Dead Space, which have received great changes in recent years.

Here's What We Know

Alone in the Dark may be considered the "granddaddy" of the genre, but with the reimagining of the original game and the relaunch of the franchise, developers Pisces Interactive and publisher THQ Nordic are hoping to restore the success.

THQ Nordic has expressed positive plans for the future of the Alone in the Dark franchise. In an interview with GamingBolt, Andreas Schmiedecker, Associate Producer at THQ Nordic, said that the company plans to focus on the franchise in the long term and is considering developing more sequels in the future if the relaunch proves successful:

"We’re excited to bring back Alone in the Dark with the attention the franchise deserves and are eager to know what old and new fans think of our attempt. We’re commited to the franchise in the long run and will be happy to explore if further if audience reception stays as positive as we have been experiencing since the announcement." of our attempt."

The survival horror genre has recently experienced an incredible resurgence, and the momentum continues to build, as seen in the line-up of upcoming titles in the genre that are currently in development. We hope that Alone in the Dark will add its weight to this positive trend.
