has a pretty respectable but not totally consistent catalog. While certain staples are there to stay, games come and go regularly. Six games are leaving on April 15th, with half of them from Amnesia developer Frictional Games.

After releasing an accessibility patch for Amnesia: The Bunker, Frictional Games is back with another. Version 1.31 isn’t as hefty but offers new additions, including a Very Easy difficulty preset. If your preference runs opposite to Shell Shock Mode, then this should be a worthwhile addition.

Frictional Games has released a new patch for Amnesia: The Bunker, adding several accessibility options. These include reduced camera motion, reduced enemy perception, aim assist, subtitle directional indicators, closed captions and much more.

Amnesia: The Bunker has all but reinvented Frictional Games’ horror series, a crucial move at a time when the previous entry didn’t quite hit the mark for some. However, the original – The Dark Descent – will always hold a special place in the hearts of horror fans. And if you thought the 2010 game was scary as it is, get ready to play it in VR.

There are some things in life that I admire but can't claim to properly understand. These include the literary works of James Joyce, the vegan lifestyle, and people who want to play incredibly scary games in VR. I like horror games, but there's a limit on my tolerance, and Amnesia: The Dark Descent landed right on that limit when it slithered out of Frictional Games' culvert a terrifying thirteen years ago. Hence, the mere idea of playing that game in VR makes me shudder.

In the run-up to the end of October, many horror studios are getting some content ready for this most spookiest of seasons. One such example comes from Amnesia: The Bunker developer Frictional Games, and a new video outlines the custom settings coming in a soon-to-be-released update.

Amnesia: The Bunker came out earlier this summer to a warm reception from horror fans, and now developer Frictional Games is about to give the game a new boost via its big Halloween update. One of the big additions is the new Shell Shock mode, that provides a particularly tough challenge by making certain key items harder to acquire, increasing fuel demands, and making the Stalker more unpredictable. That said, if straightforward punishment isn’t your thing, Frictional is also introducing a new Custom mode, which allows you to set over 30 parameters to determine how you want to the game to play. You can check out a rundown of all the different options, below.

If you already find moving around the claustrophobic confines of Amnesia: The Bunker difficult, brace yourself – horror master Frictional is introducing a new Shell Shocked mode, and it's about to make an already unsettling experience even more terrifying. 

Developer Frictional Games has announced a new update for its recently-released horror title Amnesia: The Bunker. The updated, slated for release in time for Halloween, will include a number of new features that make the game scarier and more difficult.

Frictional Games fans could be forgiven for thinking the horror-focused studio has been getting a little soft in recent years, having introduced death-free and monster-free modes in post-launch updates for its acclaimed SOMA and Amnesia: Rebirth. This year, though, it's going in completely the opposite direction, and its recently launched WW1 horror Amnesia: The Bunker will be getting even more nerve-frayingly horrifying, just in time for Halloween.

Despite a couple of delays, Frictional Games finally released Amnesia: The Bunker in June, representing a return to form in the iconic Amnesia series. Now, get ready for an even tougher time in this WW1 setting, as an even tougher difficulty mode is on the way.

I've only played an hour or so of Frictional's horror sequel Amnesia: The Bunker, partly because 2023 is stacked with huge games, but also because I find it incredibly intense. Its ingenious combination of, player-driven objectives, self-induced time pressure and a big, nasty something that stalks you dynamically through its First World War bunker setting, makes for a dreadful experience in the truest sense of the word. It's so unrelenting that I struggle to muster the courage to leave the game's central safe room.

I wouldn't say I've been itching to return to Amnesia: The Bunker, Frictional's perfectly ghastly blend of horror game and immersive sim, but I've certainly been itching to write about it. The terrible beauty of that generator-based exploration and scavenging loop. That moment when you walk just a little too quickly down a corridor, and hear the awful rummaging in the walls. The agonising discovery that not only is it possible to roam with the lights out, but pretty much required, beyond a certain point. The dense burden of grasping more or less where to go, without knowing how to survive the journey - and above all else, those goddamn rats, always encountered where least convenient. Shoo! Shoo!

Developer Frictional Games has revealed that it is looking to expand the variety of its games, and in turn, is looking to cut back on horror games. The studio, speaking to 80.lv has stated that it wants “to give greater focus on other emotional qualities.”
