- Amnesia: Rebirth - Adventure Mode Out Now! - 30 March 2021
The free Adventure Mode update for Amnesia: Rebirth is out now! This new mode allows players to experience the game with reduced scares, where you don’t have to worry about darkness nor monsters attacking you. Continue reading and check out our Dev diary for more info: https://youtu.be/OlOyhsoUE9s https://store.steampowered.com/app/999220/Amnesia_Rebirth/ When we released “Safe mode” for SOMA some years ago we didn’t really know how it would be received or if it would make a difference at all to the players out there. Today we know that it was well worth the effort and that the mode allowed a whole new audience to experience the game. We got a lot of player feedback from people appreciating SOMA’s safe mode, and nearly every single interview leading up to the release of Amnesia: Rebirth contained the question “Will it come with a safe mode?”. This indicates to us that the mode has had a…

- Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs and Kingdom New Lands currently free on the Epic Store - 16 October 2020
If you're looking for a bit of spookiness as the nights draw in and Halloween approaches, developer The Chinese Room's Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs is currently free on the Epic Store; and if you're not looking for a bit of spookiness, well, there's some good news on that front too: Kingdom New Lands is also currently free on the Epic Store. Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs is, of course, the follow-up to Frictional Games' seminal horror effort, Amnesia: The Dark Descent. However, while it retains its predecessors focus on gloomy chills, its story of a Oswald Mandus - a wealthy industrialist in the last days of the 19th century - and his vast underground factory, swaps clever systems for a more guided narrative experience. Its scares aren't anywhere near as effectively orchestrated as those in The Dark Descent, but it's still a deliciously atmospheric tale of societal horror, with some truly…
- Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs is free on Epic right now - 16 October 2020
Tis the season to be spooky, so you might fancy grabbing a free copy of Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs from Epic to keep you quivering until Amnesia: Rebirth launches next week. Piggy-wigs was quite different for an Amnesia follow-up, having been made by Everybody’s Gone To The Rapture developers Thechineseroom rather than series creators Frictional Games, but it does have some jolly unpleasant parts. Defs worth a poke for the price. (more…)
- This week's free games from Epic include a perfect spooky game for October - 8 October 2020
October 15, 2020 Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs and Kingdom: New Lands are now available to claim from the Epic Games Store. It's another Thursday, and that means it's time for another round of free PC games from the Epic Games Store. Rising Storm 2: Vietnam and Abzu are gone, but as always, there's a fresh set of freebies to replace them. Epic's setting the Halloween mood right with Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs, which is now available alongside Kingdom: New Lands. You can grab both games from the Epic promotion page , and they'll be available until October 22 at 8:00 PDT / 11:00 EDT / 16:00 BST, when they'll be replaced by Costume Quest 2 and Layers of Fear 2. You'll 'purchase' the games for zero dollars a piece, at which point they'll appear in your Epic library and remain there forever. Amnesia: A Machine for Pigs is the semi-sequel, semi spin-off of the original Amnesia: The Dark Descen…

- Sumo buys Everybody's Gone to the Rapture studio The Chinese Room - 14 August 2018
Sumo has bought The Chinese Room. The Crackdown 3 developer said it had acquired The Chinese Room, the studio behind Everybody's Gone to the Rapture and Dear Esther, from founders Dan Pinchbeck and Jessica Curry. Brighton-based Pinchbeck is on board as creative director of The Chinese Room, while Curry will continue her career independently as a composer, Sumo said. Pinchbeck added he's now working on new concepts. In a blog post , he said The Chinese Room is talking to potential partners about a new game, "something bigger"... "something that takes a more traditional game genre - no, you don't get to know what just yet - and lets us spin our worlds and stories on top of that. It's going to be very, very exciting."

- Boo! Both Amnesia games are free right now on Steam - 9 March 2018
If you have not bought the Amnesia first-person spookers intentionally, inadvertently acquired them in an old bundle you don’t really remember buying, nor grabbed them when they were free in January good news: both Amnesia: The Dark Descent and Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs are free for keepsies right now on Steam. What’s changed since the last giveaway? I still have not finished either of them, I’ll tell you that much. You go lock yourselves into dungeons with terrible monsters, I’ll be just fine where I am, thanks. (more…)
- Amnesia: The Dark Descent and A Machine for Pigs are currently free on PC - 25 January 2018
Those with a love of the macabre and a steely constitution are in for a treat; Amnesia: The Dark Descent and its follow-up A Machine for Pigs are currently free on the Humble Store. Developed by Frictional Games (the studio responsible for the terrifying SOMA ), Amnesia: The Dark Descent unfurls among the tenebrous stones of a vast and loathsome castle. It's as much a masterclass in psychological manipulation and suffocating atmosphere as it is in jump-scares, and is generally considered to be one of the finest horror experiences a person can have in front of their video game machine. I can personally only vouch for the excellent first few hours however, because it all got a bit too much for me after that. A Machine for Pigs, meanwhile, continues on with the series' Lovecraftian stylings, albeit with a touch more political subtext as you battle your way through a terrible, subterranean…
