'Those Who Remain' (ALL) Delayed A Few Weeks - Trailer

by Rainier on May 7, 2020 @ 10:45 a.m. PDT

Those Who Remain is a psychological thriller that takes place in Dormont, a small town in the USA where anything can happen!

Dormont appears to be a regular and typical American town at first glance, but it is however cursed by a demon who shrouded everything in darkness. Most of the town's population has been trapped inside the darkness, with no means of escape.

Edward Turner is just an ordinary man with a troubled past, who arrives in the wrong place at the wrong time. He soon finds out that something is very wrong in Dormont. There are strange creatures roaming in the dark, killing everyone that gets close. The only way to survive is by staying in the light.

The biggest threat in Those Who Remain is ethereal: the darkness. The monsters roam free in the dark, and the player will die if he stays there for too long. The threat is always there, waiting on the edge of the light and darkness. Sometimes the lights will fail, forcing the player to run. He will have to find light sources to proceed through dark paths. But there are also other threats: physical monsters that move freely in both the light and the darkness.

Originally planned for May 15, 2020, Those Who Remain has been pushed back until May 28, 2020.

The danger in the dark is not the only thing at play in Dormont.

The other main mechanic of the game is the “mirror worlds”. While the player progresses through the adventure, he finds strange portals that emanate a bright light, will bring him to a very similar yet different area, apparently unreal but very real, like a mirrored version of the real world

Actions taken in one place have repercussions in the other. , so sometimes the player needs to travel between both to solve puzzles.

Key Features:

  • Darkness Has Eyes: Navigate and survive the encroaching darkness and stay in the protection of the light by any means
  • Worlds Torn Asunder: Pave your way ahead by moving between Dormont and its dark otherworldly counterpart to further solve the mysteries held within the dark
  • Conscience of Choice: Choose to help any surviving citizens of Dormont you encounter or leave them to the darkness. Innocence cannot always be assumed, and the township of Dormont hides a cursed trove of secrets
  • Savour your Sanity: Keep your sanity in check as you delve deeper into the darkness of Dormont – expected rules of the real world have been torn apart
  • Follow your Path: Your decisions and choices will determine the fate of Edward, through multiple different branching outcomes

Those Who Remain will be available in Standard and a retail-exclusive Deluxe Edition for PS4 and PC (pre-order here) – that is set to include a digital download of the beautifully illustrated comic prequel story, ‘Those Who Remain: Lights Out’.

Those Who Remain will be available for PC (Steam), PS4, and Xbox One on May 28, 2020 at £15.99/€19.99/$19.99, with a Nintendo Switch version to follow later in 2020.
