First trailer cuts through the Fog
Supermassive Games have dropped the first trailer forThe Casting of Frank Stone, their single player Dead by Daylight spin-off, a collaboration with original developer Behavior Interactive that was announced earlier this year. The newhorrorgame combinesUntil Dawn’s branching storyline approach withDead by Daylight’s supporting fiction of a malevolent Entity, trapping people in fog-bound pocket dimensions with legendary killers, so as to feast on their fear.
In this case, the legendary killer is of course old Frankie, who appears to be one of those DIY murderers with a penchant for welding equipment. “The shadow of Frank Stone looms over Cedar Hills, a town forever altered by his violent past,” the trailer blurb explains. “As a group of young friends are about to discover, Stone’s blood-soaked legacy cuts deep, leaving scars across families, generations, and the very fabric of reality itself. In the depths of an Oregon steel mill, the gruesome crimes of a sadistic killer spawn horrors beyond comprehension.”
Taking charge of said unfortunate group of young friends, you’ll make decisions that lead to “emotional gut-punches” and “heart-wrenching dilemmas”. This being a Dead by Daylight and/or Supermassive project, it’s likely that literal gut punches and heart-wrenching will be involved.
