‘Fatal Frame’ Producer on the Franchise’s Return: It’s Up to Nintendo

Published

With all the talk of Resident Evil and Silent Hill these days, one survival horror series that was kind of overshadowed by a lot of people was Fatal Frame. Lucky for us, Silent Hill director Christophe Gans is looking to try and bring a film adaptation to life. But what about those who want an actual game?

Well, according to Keisuke Kikuchi, the producer of Fatal Frame, he’s all for a revival of the series, but it’s all contingent on Nintendo (which now owns the publishing rights for the franchise).

Speaking to Nintendo Everything, Kikuchi talked about the possibility of reviving the franchise, but made it clear that “there is a distance between [his] feelings and ambitions and the feasibility of such projects.”

This isn’t the first time that Kikuchi mentioned his desire to bring Fatal Frame back. Last year, he expressed his desire to bring the series to the Switch.

At the moment, Kikuchi is working with the Gust brand, which would make it difficult to secure production lines and team members. In the short-term, it’s not realistic, but “I’ve never really given up the idea.”

Come Face to Face With the Zombie Menace in the Story Trailer for ‘Zombie Army VR’ [Watch]

While there’s no definitive release date just yet, Rebellion is teasing fans with a new story trailer for the upcoming Zombie Army VR, which is expected to arrive later this year. The new trailer gives fans and prospective players a glimpse at the Zombie Army VR story campaign, which as you might have guessed, involves occult magic, waves of zombies, and plenty of headshots.

The game’s campaign takes place alongside the events of the Zombie Army series, and sees you take to the field as one of the Deadhunters, an elite squad that is hunting down zombie war criminals. You must fight your way through undead hordes near the bombed-out city of Nuremberg to help Captain Hermann Wolff, the Deadhunter’s legendary leader, find his scattered family and fight to free Europe from the zombie apocalypse.

As you navigate the full-length story campaign either alone or with an ally, you’ll have access to an arsenal of authentic World War II weaponry, including sniper rifles, submachine guns, pistols and more. As one would expect, VR brings a new level of immersion to the action of the Zombie Army series, which will require you to “get to grips” with using your hands to aim your rifle, dual-wield your side arm with a submachine gun, master reloading drills, and tossing grenades.

Zombie Army VR is currently in development for the PlayStation VR2, Meta Quest 2, 3, Pro, Oculus Rift and PC headsets via Steam.
