Camel 101 has confirmed the release date for psychological horror Those Who Remain and that date is May 15th. The game centres around Edward who finds himself caught up in the schemes of a demon while also battling with his own life issues including a recent divorce, and alcoholism. Edward needs to stay in the light and fear the dark where the demons reside. The release date trailer below shows some gameplay which sets the scene.
Stefan played a bit of Those Who Remain for a preview and wrote:
I think my main wish from Those Who Remain would be for the beings stood in the darkness to feel more alive. It would be much creepier if they were only really seen out of the corner of your vision, if they moved around, flitting from shadow to shadow, or even if they simply animated to give the impression that they are conversing and judging you.
Still, there’s some interesting ideas wrapped up in Those Who Remain, blending light and dark in its environmental puzzles with supernatural world hopping and a demonic presence that’s more playful than outright malevolent. It will be interesting to see how developer Camel 101 can play with those ideas through the rest of the game.
