At the PlayStation State of Play event, Supermassive Games, the team behind The Dark Pictures Anthology, revealed the story trailer for their upcoming game Directive 8020. The preview, which can be seen below, gives us a look at the terror and isolation we can expect from the game.
The official synopsis of the game reads “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.”
“I’m thrilled to take you deeper into the dangers that you’ll face onboard the Cassiopeia,” said game director Will Doyle. “The team at Supermassive Games has worked tirelessly to craft a narrative experience that melds sci-fi exploration with spine-chilling horror, where every choice could lead to a disastrous death.”
The game is set to launch for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC on October 2nd. Keep it locked to Horror News Network for more on Directive 8020.
