A Reimagination of Lovecraftian Horror
Cyanide Studio, the studio developing the new Call of Cthulhu game has just released its Call of Cthulhu E3 2017 trailer and it looks frightening. From watching the gameplay, the game looks to be a first-person survival game with psychological horror elements.
The game will take players to a creepy island named Darkwater Island. Players will take control of private detective, Edward Pierce who travels to the island to investigate the death of a famous artist and her family.
What Edward does not know is that a great evil lurks beneath the waters, waiting to awaken. The Great Dreamer, Cthulhu has lied in slumber for millions of years and longs for an awakening. Cthulhu is a malevolent creature created from the mind of author HP Lovecraft. It is one of the many 'The Great Old Ones' who once ruled the Earth as Gods.
