If you've never experienced the Simulacra games before, consider yourself lucky. They are - in my opinion - some of the scariest and most disturbing games out there. Taking what starts out as a creepy experience playing on very real fears about technology, both games crack the fear-o-meter up to 11 and get very spooky.
Now we have the official announcement that Simulacra 3 exists and we even got a super short teaser! Here's everything we know so far...
Simulacra 3 Annoucement & Teaser
Simulacra 3 will be developed by Kaigan Games and published by Neon Doctrine. This new instalment will build upon the first two games while also building in brand-new 'real-time elements'.
Here's the synopsis from the announcement of Simulacra 3:
The once charming town of Stonecreek has seen better days. People are vanishing into thin air, leaving nothing behind but strange symbols where they were last seen. With the police baffled and the populace terrified, rumors swirl that it is the doing of the Beldam, the ghost of a witch that once haunted the streets of Stonecreek.
You are the intern at the local paper, tasked with assisting the town’s star journalist, Ruby Myers, on her investigation into the disappearances. Your only lead is the phone of the missing Paul Castillo, a software developer, an amateur historian of the town, and one of Ruby’s sources. While Ruby does the legwork, your job is to hack into Paul’s phone for any clues left behind. New apps, exciting features, and fresh terror await those who delve into the darkest corners of the digital realms as you investigate the Beldam of Stonecreek.
If you have even a remote interest in unique indie experiences or horror games, be sure to check out the first two games. They're available on various storefronts on PC and the first game is available on PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X/S & Xbox One
