At last, the third installment in The Dark Pictures Anthology has received new information. After the events of The Dark Pictures Anthology: Little Hope, fans of the horror narrative knew it was only a matter of time until The Dark Pictures Anthology: House of Ashes was discussed further. Today during the Summer Game Fest, Bandai Namco Entertainment revealed new information about The Dark Pictures Anthology: House of Ashes.
Below is Bandai Namco‘s official announcement from earlier today,
“The place… Iraq. The time… 2003. In the shadow of the Zagros Mountains, a military unit comes under fire from Iraqi forces. The resulting firefight causes an earth tremor where both sides fall into the ruins of a buried Sumerian temple. With all communication with the outside world severed, our protagonists are trapped in a terrifying underworld they must navigate to escape – unaware that something ancient and evil has awakened in the shadows and has found new prey to hunt.
Horrific discoveries and impossible decisions now face the survivors as they strive to escape the terrifying threat they’ve awakened. Will they each prioritize their own survival, or put aside their fears and personal rivalries to fight together as one against these underworld monsters?”
