New Alone in the Dark and Haunted House Games In Development from Atari

Atari is bringing back two of its scariest franchises: Alone in the Dark and Haunted House. Both of the franchises helped pioneer the survival horror genre. The first Haunted House game came out in 1982 for the Atari 2600, and there was a remakefor the PC in 2010 followed by a recent iOS side-scroller. The first Alone in the Dark was released in 1992, and the last one came out in 2008 for the 360 and PS3. The new Alone in the Dark game will be called Alone in the Dark: Illumination, but that’s all Atari has said for now. More details on both projects will be announced at the Penny Arcade Expo next week.

Despite recent strife, Atari's 2014 offensive continues with upcoming reveals of new Alone in the Dark and Haunted House games. Both games are coming to PC this fall, and Atari plans to reveal them behind closed doors at next week's PAX Prime conference in Seattle.

Alone in the Dark: Illumination marks the first entry in the horror series since the 2008 release, which failed to set the world alight despite its hi-tech fire physics. Illumination is in development at Pure FPS, a Californian studio with little info to go on except it holds the trademark to Rekoil, a game made by Plastic Piranha. Consider one of our eyebrows raised. Continue Reading

Atari Releases First Teaser Trailer for Alone in the Dark: Illumination

Sit back and watch the first teaser trailer for Alone in the Dark: Illumination, the next game in the long-running horror series. As you can see in the trailer, illumination will have a big impact on the gameplay, with players using light to explore their completely dark surroundings. The story will see players struggle to rid an abandoned town of a mysterious curse, and like the previous games, there will be plenty of blood-thirsty monsters to avoid. Along with the single-player campaign, there will also be a co-op multiplayer mode, so you can brave the darkness with your friends. Alone in the Dark: Illumination will launch this fall on the PC. The project was first announced last month, along with a new game in Atari’s Haunted House franchise. There’s no word yet on when we’ll get a look at that.

Seems like we are getting a big push toward revamped survival horror for the next-gen consoles.

The hell, I thought Atari went under and assumed someone else bought all their IPs. Well, maybe this one will be decent.
