Dark Atlas: Infernum Unveils Bloodcurdling New Trailer at The Horror Game Awards

A horrifying new look at the terrors that await

[December 14th, 2024] – The nightmare continues to evolve as Dark Atlas: Infernum has released a chilling new trailer as part of The Horror Game Awards. Presented by SelectaPlay and Night Council Studio, this new trailer for the upcoming psychological survival horror game showcases bone-chilling first-person gameplay from the perspective of protagonist Natalia Asensio. The trailer also offers a look at petrifying new environments, setting the stage for what’s to come in the full release.

In Dark Atlas: Infernum, you step into the role of Natalia Asensio, Grand Master of an ancient esoteric order. As society collapses and dimensional barriers shatter, supernatural forces are unleashed into the world, leaving you trapped in a dark, dust-filled basement. Drugged and with only fragmented memories of your identity, Natalia must navigate a world teetering on the brink of hell itself. Haunting voices plague your mind, twisting your thoughts and commanding you to follow their cryptic orders. Every choice you make could either protect your fractured mind or doom you to eternal suffering.

The horrors that await you in
Dark Atlas: Infernum aren’t just the terrifying creatures lurking in the shadows, but the psychological and emotional toll that comes with battling a collapsing world and an uncertain identity. As Natalia, your greatest enemy is the darkness that seeks to tear apart both your mind and reality. You must confront the unknown forces in the world and within yourself to stop the apocalypse—and, in doing so, determine if there’s anything left worth saving.
