2010-08 Friday 27th, Amnesia: The Dark Descent Gone Gold

[jens]

Helsingborg, Sweden, 27/8 – 2010

We at Frictional Games are happy to announce that Amnesia: The Dark Descent has gone gold. We are extremely pleased with our creation and cannot wait to unleash our bundle of madness on the 8th of September. We feel that we have taken a giant leap forward compared to our previous games, the Penumbra series.

Amnesia: The Dark Descent is a first person horror game with a focus on immersion. It is a game where atmosphere and story comes first. We hope that the game will be a breeze of fresh air, in a genre otherwise populated by "one-man-army action hero" sagas. In Amnesia you are almost completely defenseless, something we believe not only makes the game a lot scarier, but also gives a vastly different experience.

On the 8th of September, an interactive nightmare where reality is a fragile concept awaits.

Do you have what it takes to survive?

Great! The more, the better.

How about Games for Windows Live? Oh, and will the Steam version be Steam Play enabled?

I already posted about the game going gold on the Neowin forums, Steam forums, Piriform forums, GOG forums, Twitter... Gotta spread the word!

EDIT: Also posted about the game on the Games for Windows forums, and DeviantArt forums. Can't think of any other place to post about the game right now.
