| THQ Nordic announces new game: Black Mirror scheduled for release this November THQ Nordic is thrilled to reveal its new project: Black Mirror, a Gothic horror adventure, due for release on 28th November 2017. The game will be developed by the Bremen studio King Art Games, known for “The Book of Unwritten Tales”, “The Dwarves” and “The Raven”, and will be available on PC/Mac/Linux, PS4 and Xbox One.
Black Mirror – The Brand The game name may already exist one way or another, and no, we’re not talking about the Netflix series. The first part of the creepy point-and-click series was released in 2004 as “The Black Mirror”, which produced two more spin-offs, “Black Mirror II” (2009) and “Black Mirror III” (2011). But don’t worry, even players unfamiliar with the previous games in the series can also enjoy Black Mirror, because this reboot of the franchise tells a totally independent and new story. The major difference between the new and old Black Mirror, apart from the modern graphics of course, will be a new gameplay element: interaction with vision-like apparitions. Gamescom 2017 and Website A playable demo of Black Mirror will be ready for gamescom 2017 for both industry and public visitors to try out, and the THQ Nordic Stand (A011) is in the Entertainment Area in Hall 8. Please contact us below if you are media and would like to schedule an appointment and interview the development team during the show. Those who can’t attend gamescom in Cologne, can at least visit our new website for a first impression of Black Mirror: blackmirror-game.com. About Black Mirror Like in the original graphic adventure trilogy, the Gothic Horror genre and its unique atmosphere of madness and psychological distress remains at the heart of Black Mirror. The point-and-click gameplay of the original trilogy served as the basis for the re-imagined gameplay, which focuses on close-up investigation and interaction with nightmarish visions that plague the protagonist of the game David Gordon. Key Features • A modern re-imagining of the acclaimed gothic-horror adventure series • Interactions with vision-like apparitions which help you learn more about the past of your family • Eerie atmosphere focusing on the horrors of the mind, in the style of EA Poe and HP Lovecraft • High quality voice acting from a compelling ensemble cast |
