The "Black Mirror" reboot has a new creepy trailer. No, it is not that British satirical anthology, but the creepy third-person point-and-click horror adventure that started way back in 2003.
The teaser gives first look into the upcoming "Black Mirror" gameplay that evokes the same mystery and adventure seen in its predecessors, still with the "unique atmosphere of madness and psychological distress."
The game, set in 1926, follows the story of David Gordon. After his estranged father committed suicide, he is forced to visit his ancestral home in the Scottish highlands. Tormented by nightmares all his life, he is scared that it is his destiny to follow his father's footsteps, as well as all the Gordons before him, who fell "down a path that leads to madness and death."
He meets the Gordon family, a clan he never knew, for the first time at the Black Mirror house. But soon, he realizes that something is peculiar about the mansion and the circumstances surrounding his father's death. Is it really suicide? Or is it something more sinister?
The player's mission as Gordon is to uncover the mysteries "buried under generations of silence and fathoms of stone" and find out whether a curse has been really haunting his family for decades, or it is the Black Mirror manor that is causing all the mysterious deaths.
The "Black Mirror" reboot is the fourth game of the name from THQ Nordic. First launched in 2003, it has since finished a successful trilogy of Gothic horror inspired by the works of influential mystery-horror writers Edgar Allan Poe and H.P. Lovecraft.
This fourth installment will be a re-imagining of the trilogy, and will be a totally independent story, meaning players who are not familiar about its predecessors need not worry.
"Black Mirror" will hit the shelves on Nov. 28 for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
