We still have a little time before the release of The Devil in Me, the fourth episode of The Dark Pictures saga which began in 2019 with Man of Medan, which will also be the last episode of Season 1. For the gamescom festivities 2022, the Supermassive Games studio invites us to discover some of the gameplay mechanics in a video that immerses us in this atmosphere reminiscent of the Saw films. It is true that the studio's games tend to cast a wide net when it comes to making references to well-known horror games of the 7th Art. If you will have to solve puzzles, make choices (even if it means sacrificing a friend or a girlfriend), The Devil in Me will offer some new features, such as exploration sequences, more movement for the characters, less limited in the scripts already established by the creators of the game. It will be possible to run, jump over an obstacle, jump over crevices, but also walk in balance on a beam. So many new mechanics in a game that promotes storytelling, with however several possible endings each time. A specialty of the studio which marketed The Quarry with the help of 2K Games just a few months ago.
The release of The Dark Pictures Anthology: The Devil in Me is set for November 18 on PC, PS5, Xbox Series, PS4 and Xbox One.
