Supermassive Games made a name for itself in the horror space withUntil Dawn, a PlayStation 4 exclusive that is generally considered one of the best horror games of the last decade. Supermassive Games has carried onUntil Dawn’s legacy withThe Dark Pictureshorror anthology games, which offer similar gameplay asUntil Dawn, but with shorter stories and some added features, like co-op support. While some thought thatThe Dark Pictures: House of Ashesmay have been the last game in the series, it seems as though a fourth entry is in the works as well.
A trademark has been filed forThe Dark Pictures: The Devil in Me. Besides the game’s logo, there are no other details about what it will entail. However, it will almost certainly be in a similar vein as thepreviousDark Picturesgames, meaning player choice will dictate the course of the story and the fate of the characters, and it will likely feature a celebrity in the lead role.
