Eternal Darkness headed for next-gen? |
Ó
It seems that developer Silicon Knights has a way of hyping up their titles. Who could ever forget Eternal Darkness? The psychological/horror videogame was originally slated for Nintendo 64 but eventually ended up in GameCube. They did it once more with Too Human. Again, it's supposed to be for PSOne then for GameCube, but it became an X360 exclusive in the end.See the pattern? Anyway, outspoken director Denis Dyack is starting mind games once more as he re-opens the dark universe of Eternal Darkness and shoves it in the mouth of next generation. According to him:
I am most often asked if we have sequels in mind for Eternal Darkness. The answer is absolutely yes. When creating an original game we start by conceptualizing an entire universe. Once the universe is conceptualized we then tell a story within that world.
But before you guys get over excited, take note that this could be under Silicon Knights' WIP files for a long time. In case you've forgotten, Too Human is just the first installment of a trilogy. Despite that, Dyack mentioned that two titles are actually connected to each other. He shared:
After creating numerous worlds over the years, developing a trilogy is just a natural progression in our game making process. Eternal Darkness and Too Human all fall under the same umbrella of universes that we created. We have many stories to tell within these worlds so this time around we felt it was time to tell more than just one.
So, does this mean that Eternal Darkness would be a Microsoft exclusive as well? The director, unfortunately, wouldn't say. But it is sure good to know that a title with such caliber will soon be gracing the walls of next-gen.

seeing how long they work on a title I'd be suprised if all 3 Too Humans are on the 360. One of them will probably be on the next xbox and by the time they get Eternal Darkness said and done it'll be on the console after the next round
we get ALL da exclusives
I'm glad to hear that news from Silicon Knights. I hope they take all the time they need and use the best engine available to resurect the omnipotent Eternal Darkness on a 360 near you. ED:SR is a nuke on the Cube and it will be interesting to see if Silicon Knights has what it takes to hold the fort down and rock the house once again with the descendant of Eternal Darkness.
