New Amnesia title in the works? Aaron Birch Amnesia: The Dark Descent may be getting another outing, as a mysterious website emerges Published on Feb 11, 2012

Amnesia: The Dark Descent by Frictional Games was a great PC-only survival horro r romp, featuring some genuinely scary and unique gameplay. Puzzle-solving whils t trying not to go insane was an interesting mechanic, and the constant fear evo ked by the game's deep atmosphere made for a memorable experience. If you played through the game, and came out with clean pants, then you're no do ubt going to be pleased at the possibility of a new Amnesia title, suggested by the appearance of a new website. The site, with an address of www.nextfrictionalgame.com is about as sparse as yo u can get, with only the Amnesia logo and the text "Something is emerging..." Cl icking on the image takes you to Google Maps, centred on China. A look at the source code of the page reveals meta data including 3D game, survi val horror, first person, advanced physics and more, and there's a description t hat begins "Welcome to the next Frictional game site..." So, it seems that Amnesia 2 is on its way, and it'll likely involve the same sty le of play, and will take place in China. Let's just hope it doesn't borrow them es from Eastern horror flicks like Ring, or we may never turn the lights off aga in. Amnesia teaser site
