Deadly Premonition 2 Is Pretty Much A Given At This Point
Though upon playing the game, I would almost think they didn’t change the direction at all. It still has an incredible amount of similarities to Twin Peaks. Back to the matter at hand. Upon its European release in October of last year it seemed as of Deadly Premonition could do no wrong. Head past the break to see it’s competition destroying scores.

MOST North American reviews we’re also extremely positive. Aside from a review from IGN US where it was given a 2/10. But when it comes down to it, this is one of the worst best games of all time. There is no reason it shouldn’t be given a sequel. The sexy and illustrious Adam Dodd gave mention of sequel rumors back in OCTOBER.
The game is the perfect type of game for a continuation. Likeable cast, perfect setting, Frances York Morgan! The game really needs some tweaking before you could make an incredible sequel. With such positive reviews they could even release it for the full $60.00, because it seems like everyone would pay it. So the question remains. What happens in Season 2?
Epic’s Fortnite is heading for another crossover, this time with Universal Orlando and Halloween Horror Nights. The title’s annual Fortnitemares Halloween event will be coming to Universal Studios Hollywood and Universal Orlando Resort in a new scare zone, kicking off on August 28.
For those not in the know, Scare zones are themed, open-air areas where guests and actors roam around freely.
This is the first time Fortnite will be featured during the after-hours event, which will run from August 28 until November 1. Tickets and packages are on sale now at the official site.
Per the press release, guests will enter Freaky Fields, a Halloween-inspired living battleground that’s been “overcome with a threatening force.” From there, fans will meet up with the Battle Bus, featuring familiar Fortnitemares characters, including “a few new additions exclusive to Halloween Horror Nights.”
And of course, there will be Fortnitemares merchandise available for fans, including a graphic t-shirt, decal set, and an acrylic collectible piece.
Fortnitemares won’t be the only featured property at this year’s Halloween Horror Nights. Killer Klowns from Outer Space will also be getting its own scare zone. Sinners, Stranger Things, Hellraiser, and Evil Dead Burn will also be part of the event, though they will be relegated to their own specific houses.
And while it’s early yet, gamers can probably expect Fortnitemares to return to Fortnite this October.
