Supermassive’s well-regarded interactive survival horror series, the Dark Pictures Anthology, is ready for its second season. Directive 8020 will be its first entry and was available to play in demo form at SGF 2025, even if it was heavily weighted with cutscenes and context-setting preamble.
The demo kicked off with a meeting between Young and Stafford, marking the anniversary of Young’s father's death, who was also a long-time friend of Stafford's – the commander of the space mission that Young is also bound for.
The plot then leaps four years forward, placing us aboard the spaceship Cassiopeia. Oh and it’s somehow overrun by some fungal, sentient alien goop. Worse still, but also a horror staple, the goop is coalescing into almost-perfect copies of the human crew. Trust no-one!
