Rumour: THQ Nordic to Reveal New ‘Alone in the Dark’ Title at Gamescom

Four years back, THQ Nordic rescued classic IP Alone in the Dark from oblivion. And according to rumours, THQ Nordic could be revealing a new entry in the series very soon.

German website GameFront.de picked up on a cryptic tweet by industry insider The Snitch on Twitter (how appropriate), who wrote “Being afraid of the dark is what keeps most of us alive.” This is a quote from the Uwe Boll-directed film adaptation of Alone in the Dark, which as you might expect, didn’t do so well upon release back in 2005.

Still, fans of the series picked up on it, and given that THQ Nordic are set to will be kicking off their Gamescom showcase tomorrow with the reveal of new titles, there’s that strong possibility Alone in the Dark fans are in for a treat. And anything to wash away the taste of 2015’s Alone in the Dark: Illumination.

In case you’re wondering if we should believe said individual, The Snitch had previously leaked the full lineup of the latest Sony State of Play, along with the release date of the upcoming The Last of Us Part I release date and the Persona games for the Xbox Series. As always, you want to take these sorts of things with the usual helping of salt, but it’d be all too perfect to bring back what many fans consider the first Survival Horror game. Not to mention that the original game turned 30 this year.

Thanks to RelyOnHorror for the heads up.
