Thanks to a French online store, the first details have emerged on Alone in The Dark, a reboot of the survival horror series coming to PS5, Xbox Series X | S and PC.
The first details and a series of images of the Alone in the Dark reboot have leaked online , anticipating the likely official announcement scheduled for tonight’s THQ Nordic event.
The French retailer Smartoys has mistakenly added the game to its list earlier than expected, including the official synopsis with information on the plot and characters, some images (which you can view at this link ) and revealing that the game will be available on PS5, Xbox Series X and PC . The release date indicated is December 31, 2023, which is clearly a “placeholder”.
The synopsis of the Alone in the Dark reboot reads:

We also learn that the story was written by screenwriter Mikael Hedgerg , author of SOMA and Amnesia, and that players will be able to choose whether to face this dark adventure as Edward Carnby or Emily Harwood, with, we suppose, possible differences in terms of gameplay and implications of the plot.
