The Long Dark developer teases 'unannounced survival game' that might just be The Long Dark 2
Hinterland, the developer behind snowy survival game The Long Dark, has teased an 'unannounced survival game' currently…
Hinterland boss Raphael van Lierop (who confirmed he was stepping away from The Long Dark to start a new project at the studio back in 2022) shared the 22 seconds of "in-engine pre-alpha" footage on social media today, along with the caption, "Some good things happening in the Unannounced Survival Games space...". A running tally of "days" scrawled on the mirror and the general makeshift dilapidation of the room certainly suggest some kind of disaster has befallen the world outside, while the two roaring fires and the howling wind absolutely bring The Long Dark's big freeze to mind. This September marks ten years since The Long Dark launched into Steam early access, so 2024 seems as good a time as any for Hinterland to start talking about what's next in more excplicit details - particularly as the extraordinarily long-in-the-works fifth and final chapter of The Long Dark's Wintermute story mode, and the remaining two parts of its Tales From the Far Territory DLC, are due to release before the end of this year.
