‘The Vanishing of Ethan Carter’ Heads to XBox One January 19th With New Mode
It’s taken a while, but The Astronauts’ award-winning 2014 horror-adventure The Vanishing of Ethan Carter is finally making its way to XBox One. The BAFTA-winning game will arrive on Microsoft’s console January 19th, and will set you back $20 USD. In addition, the game will also support 4K resolution on your shiny new XBox One X.
Further sweetening the deal is a new Free Roam mode, a much-requested feature by players to the devs, which now allows the player to explore Red Creek Valley without all of that murder stuff going on.
Originally released way back in 2014 on Steam, The Vanishing of Ethan Carter sold 60,000 copies in its first month on sale. The PlayStation 4 received a port the following year. The story for the game has the player assuming the role of Paranormal investigator Paul Prospero. Prospero receives a fan letter from one 12-year-old Ethan Carter, inspiring him to come to Ethan’s hometown of Red Creek Valley, Wisconsin. Upon his arrival, however, Prospero begins experiencing paranormal phenomena, as well as evidence of some recent dark happenings in the tiny town.
The Astronauts’ upcoming game, Witchfire, was revealed at last year’s The Game Awards.
Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.
The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.
Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers — played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere — can be seen trapped inside.
You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.
There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…
The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
