Last year, Darril Arts‘ Remothered: Tormented Fathers gave us a distinctly Italian-flavored slice of survival horror that had a bit of an Argento vibe to it. It had its share of problems, but there seemed to be plenty of potential for future games if they were to happen.
And happen they will, as it has been announced that a sequel is definitely in the works. Dubbed Remothered: Going Porcelain, the new game will arrive on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC in 2020.
In the press release, we got a sniff at some of the details of this second chapter.
“We’re very excited to be bringing Remothered: Going Porcelain to fans of the genre,” said Christina Seelye, CEO of Modus Games. “The first game captured the attention of horror fans, and the second will have them anxiously awaiting the third!”
“I am immensely proud of the success gained by Remothered: Tormented Fathers and even more proud about the collaboration that will give life to the second title of the trilogy,” said Chris Darril, Creative Director of Darril Arts and Remothered. “Get ready for something new, something mad, something to be scared of and to cry for at the same time. Get ready to enter a tragic love story.”
“It’s an incredible honor to receive recognition amongst Italian developers as being the best in horror and indie today,” said Antonio Cannata, CEO of Stormind Games. “We can’t wait to surprise and terrify people all over again.”
It’s heartening to see an indie horror game have the chance to build its own legacy. The first game certainly did well enough to allow that, so it’ll be intriguing to see what’s in store when the sequel hits everything next year.
