‘Silent Hill: Respite’ Mod For ‘Amnesia’ Reminds Us of Better Days
Seeing as Frictional Games’ Amnesia: The Dark Descent recently hit the big one-oh, and at the same time, Konami decided to give Metal Gear Solid fans some love (and once again neglecting Silent Hill fans), why not put ’em together? That’s exactly what you get in the recently-released mod for Amnesia in Silent Hill: Respite.
Created by TrollForce as a tribute to Team Silent “and the titles that they have made during their time at Konami from 1996 to 2005”, Silent Hill: Respite takes place in the Cafe 5to2 from the original Silent Hill (the cafe where Harry Wakes up at the beginning of the game). In spite of that, the mod drops several references to the first four games in the series “to show what the series has meant to the community”.
In the video below, TrollForce goes over the makings of the mod, including future updates for the mod. Speaking of which, the mod will see an update for Halloween, and an eventual expansion around Christmas. Until Konami gets their act together and finally addresses the shenanigans that have been going on, once again, it’s the fans who are here to rescue us.
The latest entry in the Amnesia series, Amnesia: Rebirth, is set to release on October 20 for PS4 and PC.
Props to DreadXP for this.
Physical media fanatics can rejoice when it comes to The Chinese Room and publisher Secret Mode’s upcoming narrative horror game Still Wakes the Deep. Alongside the digital version of the game that’s set to launch on June 18 on PC via Steam, PlayStation 5 and the Xbox Series, PlayStation owners will also be able to snag the physical version of Still Wakes the Deep on the same day.
Described as a welcome update for console players “whose greatest fear is the death of physical media,” the Still Wakes the Deep physical edition will be available from online and retail stores in North America and Europe. No word on if the Xbox Series will be getting the same treatment.
Sadly, there doesn’t appear to be any additional goodies with the physical disc. But, given that this guarantees you’ll have a copy of Still Wakes the Deep that you can pop into your console and play without the need to download it again, that’s a small price to pay.
Still Wakes the Deep takes place in 1975, where disaster has struck the Beira D oil rig off the coast of Scotland. You are one of the oil rig workers on the Beira D rig, fighting for his life through a vicious storm, perilous surroundings, and the dark, freezing North Sea waters. All lines of communication have been severed. All exits are gone. And something has snuck on board, leaving you to not only restore function to the rig, but also deal with the unknowable horror.
And keep an eye out for the upcoming mini documentary on Still Wakes the Deep, which is scheduled to arrive around April 30th.
