News: Gloomywood has revealed that they originally planned for only a PC/Mac release but due to community support it is coming to consoles as well.

Gloomywood, the new development studio headed up by the Alone in the Dark creative force Frederick Raynal, has revealed that its upcoming stealth-horror adventure game “2Dark” is coming to Xbox One and PlayStation 4. It was previously only announced for PC and Mac.

2Dark is a unique mix of stealth, horror and adventure game, conceived by Frédérick Raynal, the creative force behind Alone in the Dark. In 2Dark, you guide former detective Mr. Smith in his quest to find and free his kidnapped children in the sinister and macabre town of Gloomywood. During your rescue, you must avoid sadistic and bloodthirsty serial killers, and you will be called on to confront unnameable horrors lurking in the shadows.

"Ever since Alone in the Dark I'm following the evolution of survival horror. With 2Dark I wanted to break with the genre's traditions so I thought, what is more frightening than risking your own life? Risking the life of your children of course," said Frédérick Raynal on the game's vision. "Although we initially planned to release the game solely on PC, thanks to the outpouring of community support and enthusiasm, we decided to also bring the game to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One so that our fans can enjoy 2Dark on their favorite platform."

Mr Smith's quest to save missing children from the clutches of demented serial killers will be fully optimized for each release platform - for Xbox One and PlayStation 4 which means tailored controller support so players can fully immerse themselves into the adventure.
