The Sinking City
A new gameplay trailer is out today for The Sinking City, an upcoming open-world investigation action game that is very Lovecraftian in nature.

The trailer shows off a bit of the main character, Charles W. Reed, his mental state, and how he interacts with the city of Oakmont.
Charles W. Reed is a private investigator in New England in the 1920s. Tortured by his past and otherworldly visions, he finds himself in Oakmont, Massachusetts, seeking salvation from the creeping insanity that afflicts him. The city of Oakmont, once a trade harbor known for its lucrative smuggling business, now lives in secluded isolation from the rest of the world under a flood of supernatural origins. In this place of decay and superstition; players will have to deal with the dregs of mankind, follow clues they wish they had never found and unveil a cosmic horror threatening the world itself.

The latest trailer is entitled "A Close Shave" and it may or may not include actual shaving. You'll just have to watch it to find out.


The Sinking City isn't slated to be released until March 21, 2019. Once it does, it will be released for the PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One.
