Popular Post Kristen Danielle Posted May 27, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted May 27, 2022 Hi, guys. I've just stumbled onto a little cache of info on the upcoming games in The Dark Pictures Anthology. So far, we have Man of Medan, Little Hope, House of Ashes, and a promise that The Devil In Me is on its way. The Devil in Me is said to be the closing chapter / finale of what the devs are calling "Season One," but what comes next? I have part of the answer. Supermassive Games has trademarked six further titles in the franchise with the European Union Intellectual Property Office and these will be called Switchback, Directive 8020, The Craven Man, Intercession, Winterfold, and O Death. I have also found the unreleased game logos for these six titles. I have put them in spoiler tags because in some, the design of the title is a hint as to the content of the game. The one for O Death has what appears to be a minor spoiler about the Curator, so only look at that one if you've already figured out or at least have a pretty good idea of who he is. Enjoy! ? Switchback Spoiler Directive 8020 Spoiler The Craven Man Spoiler Intercession Spoiler Winterfold Spoiler O Death Spoiler 11 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Speling_Expirt Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 Great find! Really enjoy these games so I'm glad they all have a foothold and will continue. That O Death one looks awesome 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That O Death one looks awesome I do, too! I'm most excited about Directive 8020 because it looks futuristic and also The Craven Man because it reminds me of classic word-of-mouth horror stories. "Beware the Craven man," you know? We have one in Louisiana called Loup Garou. It's like a werewolf, but they can change at will and are completely in control of their actions while in wolf form. They're like cunning, sociopathic werewolves. lol That said, I am apprehensive about Intercession. I typically make it a point to avoid demonic games (as hinted by the inverted cross that everyone thinks is a rebellion against Christianity, but is actually just Peter's cross). Little Hope pushes me to the edge of that line as it is. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Little Hope pushes me to the edge of that line as it is. I agree, 8020 looks futuristic, maybe it'll be in space! That skull looks like a moon. I too avoid things regarding demonic possession that Intercession seems to indicate. In Little Hope, I got a different vibe. Sure the beings were demonic but not like a fallen angel possessing you demonic. Winterfold is making me think of The Thing which would be a great game device. To not know if all of your companions are all human would make an excellent experience on the first go around! I get Wicker Man vibes from Craven Man. Speaking of werewolves/ loup garou, zoom in on Switchback, specifically the "back" portion. And O Death is the most mysterious one. Yes it hints at something for the Curator but I am not sure it is as indicative as the other logos. Definitely a great find! 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batmannequin Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 Winterfold will likely be a prequel of sorts to HoA - there was a map in HoA that had Winterfold forest in the UK marked, and the agents at the end mentioned that the HoA incident had been contained better than Winterfold. IIRC, the copyright for O Death said something about it being a card game. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't allow things of the latter sort into my home. 1 hour ago, Batmannequin said: Winterfold will likely be a prequel of sorts to HoA - there was a map in HoA that had Winterfold forest in the UK marked, and the agents at the end mentioned that the HoA incident had been contained better than Winterfold. Supermassive has said that each story is standalone. You can find little connections between the games in the pictures (like the book in Julia's luggage on the Duke of Milan is about the Witch Trials and Conrad's sleeping shirt says Salem on it). I just picked up the same book in Little Hope, but the Curator seems to be the only MAIN common thread to me so far. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Another example in Man of Medan, there is a newspaper (when you need to cause a distraction to escape the room) that talks about some archeologists going missing where House of Ashes takes place. Given the O Death logo, that would fit but not sure how it would work. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Batmannequin Posted May 27, 2022 Share Posted May 27, 2022 Yeah, I don't mean it's gonna have the same aliens and so on, just that we may see the same agents pop up at the end. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

TakemetoNarnia4 Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 I get the feeling that switchback will have a Western theme with cowboys. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Deluziion90 Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 Amazing games. Horrible platinums due countless runs for different trophies. Doesn’t change the fact for me that I want them all! ? 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrBloodmoney Posted May 28, 2022 Share Posted May 28, 2022 Man, now the question becomes... ...am I going to be able to get around to the first one (which I've owned since launch) before the tenth one is released? ?

I'm a criminal psychology buff and am very familiar with H.H. Holmes and his murder castle. 1 Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
