Frictional Games promises to terrorize us in ways never seen before in Amnesia Rebirth.

Ten years have passed since the launch of the first game of the Amnesia saga; a whole decade that has allowed the Frictional Games team to refine its mastery over terror with great games like the essential SOMA. His next step? He has been begging, five years since his last game, but finally the announcement of Amnesia: Rebirth, a new horror adventure that promises not to leave anyone indifferent has been made official

“Rebirth represents another evolutionary leap for Frictional Games, challenging players to remain calm in the face of unimaginable terror,” the authors of this adventure have already reported First and brief trailer. As it was intuited in the tracks offered by the authors of Amnesia during the last months, this time we will face fear in a desert.

Specifically, we talk about the Algerian desert, where we will take control of a new character called Tasi Trianon whom we already heard in the teaser of the new Amnesia. “He has embarked on a distressing journey through devastation and despair, terror and personal suffering while exploring the limits of human resistance.” Promising, right? “You will hold your breath. The creature is only a few inches away from you. Its only purpose,” says the official description of Amnesia Rebirth, “is to feed on your terror.”

In the line of previous Frictional Games games, your only escape option lies in stealth, using the shadows to avoid being detected by those nightmare creatures that will torment us from beginning to end. In this sense, there is an interesting detail in the description of the game, and it is that it talks about gathering “the fragments of a shattered past “, which may allow us to live scenes from the past.

Already when clues began to emerge about this new game, symbols related to Ancient Egypt were mentioned, and there was even talk of the possibility that the action would take us to Kazakhstan in the days of the Soviet Union. The timeline coincides with the latter, so the story of Amnesia Rebirth could not look better. There is much to solve, yes, but we already know that this horror adventure will go on sale in the autumn of 2020 on PC and PS4, repeating the SOMA platforms in their origins, although this adventure ended up also disembarking on Xbox One and Switch.

Little else is known about the new Amnesia for now, but in the past, Frictional Games said its new game promised to be terrifying. “We want to create the kind of experience that is not only difficult to get in other places, but also leaves a mark on those who play it,” they said back then.
