PS Plus Premium Leak: Alone in the Dark 2 Might Be The Next Classic For PlayStation
Information about a classic survival horror game arriving on PlayStation Plus Premium seems to have been leaked from the PSN backend. According to PS Deals, Alone in the Dark 2 is being emulated for both PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5. The title was originally released on PC in 1993 but it arrived on PlayStation 1 in 1996.
Alone in the Dark 2 continues Edward Carnby’s struggle against the forces of darkness. Set three months after the events in Alone in the Dark, Carnby is a Supernatural Private Eye who investigates the kidnapping of a young girl. The clues lead him and his partner Ted Stryker toward the Hell’s Kitchen mansion from where the action takes off.
The release date in the description for Alone in the Dark 2 is listed as November 7 but that could be a placeholder. Official news about the PS Plus Premium lineup for this month could be revealed next week.
Earlier this year, Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare appeared in PS Plus Premium. The first reboot of the series is most memorable for its atmospheric horror. Lighting is used sparingly such that players have to rely on their flashlights to unravel hidden details. While The New Nightmare features monsters attacking the protagonist, Alone in the Dark 2 subverts the horror by showcasing goons and pirates although they are controlled by evil spirits.
Given that the PS Plus Premium leak revealed that Alone in the Dark 2 may be included in the November 2024 lineup, it’s good news for gamers who want to take a trip down memory. They can play Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare and Alone in the Dark 2 successively to stay in the Halloween mood.
Whether Alone in the Dark 2 appears in November’s PS Plus Premium remains to be seen. For now, players can check these top horror games available on both PlayStation and PC.
