A new survival horror sequel sets the stage next week when The Sinking City 2 from Frogwares arrives on August 18th (or 17th with the Premium Edition. You play as Calvin Rafferty, a new protagonist and occult adventurer. After stepping foot beyond the veil, his soulmate Faye Bennet faded into a dreamlike state and it's up to Calvin to restore her — at any and all costs.
Players will explore the city of Arkham, which is now a shell of what it used to be and filled with all kinds of horrors. By solving puzzles and exploring, you'll be able to upgrade your character by unlocking extra inventory space or giving you a second wind.
Investigations are optional activities — but by completing them, you'll unlock "Dream Essence" that can be used to equip perks and shape your character build. For example, if you want to focus on melee or maybe want to be a "Glass Cannon" — there are options for all kinds of playstyles. Of course, being a Lovecraftian game you can expect countless horrors, each with their own unique attacks. Figure out the best course of action and use every weapon and tool at your disposal to take them down.
