Lovecraftian survival horror sequel by Frogwares
The gaming community is eagerly awaiting news on Call of Duty: NEXT and Modern Warfare 4, but official sources have not released any concrete details. Current coverage from major outlets focuses on other upcoming titles like NBA 2K27 and The Sinking City 2 instead.
Microsoft's weekly Xbox showcase spotlights S.T.A.L.K.E.R. 2: Cost of Hope as the standout release arriving August 20 across Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and Game Pass. The massive non-linear expansion promises dozens of hours of survival horror storytelling in the Zone. Over a dozen additional titles round out the week, from Mortal Shell II to Backyard Baseball.
Dive into the Lovecraftian horror of The Sinking City 2 with its first hour now available on Steam. Set in the flooded town of Arkham, you'll guide Calvin through investigation and action in search of his missing lover, Faye. Despite development challenges amid the Ukrainian war, Frogwares promises a refined experience.
The Sinking City 2 successfully pivots to survival horror, ditching its open-world detective roots for a more focused, unsettling experience. Set in Lovecraft's Arkham, players control Calvin, a detective trying to revive his comatose girlfriend after a ill-fated trip to the Dreamlands. Early gameplay showcases improved combat, a crafting system, and an eerie atmosphere that breathes new life into tired Lovecraftian tropes.
