Publisher Wired Productions and developer Camel 101 have released their first-person psychological-thriller, Those Who Remain, digitally. The game is priced at £15.99 / €19.99 / $19.99. There’s also plans for a retail-exclusive Deluxe Edition set to release on July 10th.
Set in the sleepy town of Dormont, a town in a spiralling split from the fabric of reality, warped by darkness and the deeds of the citizens who reside within, Those Who Remain is a story-driven thriller combining a deeply-atmospheric game world replete with tense psychological horror that delves deep into the human psyche.
As Edward, a man who had previously enjoyed the perfect life, players will attempt to break off an affair to put his life back on track by driving into the night. Unbeknownst to him, Dormot is being covered into darkness and also has seen a bevy of recent disappearances. This will test Edward’s sanity and morality.
Here’s what Leo Zullo, Managing Director, Wired Productions, had to say:
“Those Who Remain has been made with love by the passionate and talented brothers, Ricardo and Bruno, and the care and attention they have invested into this game is evident throughout. Fans of psychological thrillers will enjoy the suspenseful and tense gameplay throughout the story, and I’m thrilled that we can share this supernatural experience with players around the world.”
Ricardo Cesteiro, Founding Studio Member and Lead Writer from developer Camel 101, added:
“It has been a long journey for Those Who Remain, starting from a very simple concept: using the fear of the dark to create and build on a new and eerie form of reality. We hope players will enjoy writing their own story as they make their own choices while trying to survive what stares back from the shadows.”
