Возможности контроллера DualSense в трейлере хоррора The Medium для PlayStation 5

В скором времени, а именно 3 сентября, пользователи консолей PlayStation 5 смогут ознакомиться с хоррором The Medium, ранее доступным лишь на Xbox Series X|S и ПК. На платформе Sony проект студии Bloober Team сможет похвастаться активным использованием функций контроллера DualSense, о чем разработчики подробно рассказали в новом видео.

Bloober Team denies Silent Hill rumours while not denying it may be doing Silent Hill

Rumours have been swirling like fog since The Medium developer Bloober Team announced a partnership with Konami, immediately sparking the suggestion that it was working on a new Silent Hill game. The developer has now denied some of these rumours, but notably doesn't deny that it's working on Silent Hill.


The Silent Hill franchise has been stuck in limbo (appropriately) ever since Konami cancelled the Hideo Kojima-directed Silent Hills around 2014, and rumours of the spooky series' return continue to gain traction. Bloober Team has been at the centre of this speculation for a while now, and not just because The Medium used Silent Hill's composer or that its first game Layers of Fear was clearly inspired by the Silent Hills P.T. demo.


Since the Konami partnership announcement, fans spotted the details on several unannounced Bloober Team projects on an EU funding site and speculated that one of these could be a Silent Hill title. These include "Black" - a first-person aliens in medieval times game - and "Dum Spiro", a horror title set in a WW2 ghetto.

Discover Dark Fracture, a new kind of psychological horror adventure

Our friends from Feardemic are proud to announce the next generation of terror: Dark Fracture, a psychological first-person horror adventure game in which jump scares are the least concerning occurrences that the players will be facing.

The game is developed by the indie team Twisted II Studio and will be released in 2022 on PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and Nintendo Switch.

About the game

Set in the late 90s in a forested area of the Northeastern USA, Dark Fracture brings you into the eerie environment of a body farm – a decomposition research facility. You enter the world as Edward, a lonely individual tormented by a tragic past, whose only solace is in the medicine that helps him to get through the day. Edward is barely able to cope with his issues, which are only intensified by the solitude of his workplace. He puts on a brave front and dutifully wakes up for work every day. His routine serves as his only anchor, but deep inside, trouble is simmering...
