Состоялся анонс Sinking City 2 как полноценной хоррор-игры.
Недавно анонсированное продолжение одной из самых недооцененных детективных приключенческих игр 2019 года, The Sinking City, еще больше окунулось в мир ужасов.
The Sinking City 2: Embracing the Darkness and Evolving the Horror Genre
🎮 The Sinking City, Lovecraftian horror detective game released in 2019, is returning with a darker and more terrifying sequel, The Sinking City 2. Developed by Frogwares, known for their Sherlock Holmes adventure games, this highly anticipated continuation promises an enhanced horror experience, improved combat mechanics, and optional detective gameplay.
🌃 Original game took players to the gloomy fictional city of Oakmont, Massachusetts, in the 1920s. It blended third-person shooting combat with intriguing detective mechanics, allowing players to unravel mysteries and advance the narrative. However, The Sinking City didn’t quite cross the threshold into pure horror territory.
🕵️♂️ The Sinking City 2, Frogwares aims to fully embrace the horror genre. The sequel’s reveal trailer, unveiled at Xbox’s Partner Preview event, teased a 2025 release date. Drawing inspiration once again from H.P. Lovecraft’s cosmic horror writings, the cinematic trailer showcased heavy horror elements, setting the stage for a spine-chilling experience that will leave players drenched in fear.
🏢 The Sinking City 2 will transport players to a new town named Arkham. While details about the protagonist remain a mystery, Frogwares promises a smaller town setting and an all-new playable character. This shift aims to make the game more accessible to newcomers, ensuring they can dive into the horrors of The Sinking City without feeling obligated to play its predecessor.
💥 Combat will take center stage in the sequel, addressing one of the weaker aspects of the original game. The developers acknowledge that the first installment’s combat mechanics fell short, and they are determined to deliver a more satisfying and engaging experience this time around. By focusing on combat improvements, they hope to create a more immersive and adrenaline-pumping gameplay experience.

🔎 While combat takes priority, detective mechanics will still have a role to play in The Sinking City 2. However, unlike the original, they will be optional rather than mandatory. Players can choose to engage in the detective gameplay to uncover secrets and unlock deeper layers of the story. It’s a welcome change that allows players to tailor their experience based on their preferences.
💡 Frogwares began pre-production for The Sinking City 2 roughly two years ago, showcasing their dedication and commitment to delivering a top-tier horror experience. Given the ongoing Russo-Ukrainian war and the challenges it presents, players can expect the sequel to aim for a release later in its 2025 window. More details about the game may emerge at upcoming events such as Gamescom or The Game Awards.
