Frictional Games Reveals More Clues to Upcoming Game
A few weeks back, SOMA devs Frictional Games posted updates to their nextfrictionalgame.com website with a few clues as to what exactly they’re working on next. Now, the website has been updated again with more scraps of info.
At the bottom of the site are the social media links for Frictional Games. Next to them is a new icon that when hovered over with your mouse, contains a part of a YouTube URL. Putting that URL into a YouTube link leads to the following video:
It gets better. If you inspect the CSS code of the website (web devs take note), you find a line that again looks like another YouTube URL. Putting that code into a YouTube link gives you this:
In the midst of all of this, we’re still not sure just what the game is, let alone if it’s a sequel to SOMA. Regardless, if you’ve got your detective hat handy (and a few hours to spare), have fun putting together your analysis.

‘Dying Light 2’ Receives New Difficulty Mode and More With “Nightmare Mode” Update [Trailer]
Not to be outdone by Dead Island 2‘s recent expansion, Techland has announced that Dying Light 2 is getting an update of it’s own with the much-requested Nightmare Mode, which adds “the hardest and most immersive difficulty yet” to the game, along with an array of additional elements.
Nightmare Mode for Dying Light 2 forces players to rely on tactics and strategic management of resources in order to survive. The new difficulty introduces changes to stamina management, called the Tactical Stamina system, limited HUD options for better immersion, and a flickering flashlight that goes out when used for too long. These and other additions aim to heighten the atmosphere give the overall experience a needed refresh for veteran players. Those who manage to complete the game on this highest difficulty will be rewarded with the memorable Waltz Outfit.
The Nightmare Mode Update adds more than just the new difficulty. New adjustments to the Infected and night experience are also part of the update. What’s more, co-op players will be glad to hear they will now be able to take on the Community Maps with up to three friends. Archers will get reworked power shot mechanics. And you even have the opportunity to change the appearance of the Grappling Hook.
Dying Light 2 is available for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series, Xbox One, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store.
