Let the Halloween shenanigans begin. Frictional Games‘s survival horror game Amnesia: The Bunker receives a terrifying new update on October 25th, just in time for Halloween: Shell Shock Mode and Custom Mode. This hardcore Halloween update lets Amnesia: The Bunker players test their mettle as a horror fan with new terrors and heaps of replay value as the creature adopts even more unpredictable and dangerous strategies. Amnesia: The Bunker is available on PC, PlayStation, Xbox One, and Series S/X for $24.99 USD; the hardcore Halloween update is available free for players.

In this 2023 horror standout, enter a French bunker during the First World War. Surrounded by the corpses of your comrades, you will evade the jaws of an inhuman creature that stalks your search for an escape. In innovative and immersive new gameplay design for the genre, explore the branching environment of the bunker in successive runs from the centrally-located safe room. Keep your generator fueled lest the lights go out; the creature hunts freely in the dark.
