The iconic title returns – The Sinking City 2 is coming soon on GOG!

The Sinking City 2 is a terrifying Lovecraftian journey, powered by Unreal Engine 5. Experience a heart-pounding survival horror as you explore the flooded city of Arkham and fight eldritch monsters beyond human comprehension. You’ll get a chance to immerse yourself in a distinct atmosphere of cosmic horror and twisted designs drawn from the dark wellsprings of HP Lovecraft's macabre imagination. Explore and survive the city of Arkham, a sprawling labyrinth of flooded alleys and decrepit mansions where eldritch horrors lurk just out of sight… Are you ready?

Wishlist it now!
It has an interesting appearance.
I loved the first game but this sequel still seems like it will be better. You will stay tuned to see the final result.
Intriqued. Wishlisted!

Though the constant switching between realities will be hopefully be better paced in the game.

Frogwares also said they will keep some of the detective work, which is good!

SargonAelther: It looks like they got rid of his oversized backpack...
I may be in the minority, but I actually liked that backpack. Carrying all the junk was more believable that way.

Looks like a backpack to me, making me believe it's the same as in its predecessor: starter outfit with and without the backpack.
Only one screenshot out of many, so I think it'll be the opposite. He may start out with a backpack and then ditch it later. I hope I'm wrong.

It's the only one where it's on his back, true, but it's in both of those on GOG that are not taken from the trailer.
In the second screenshot it's on the floor infront of Reed. Could be a mechanic where you have to drop the backpack whenever you hug a wall, possibly loosing access to its contents (I'm clearly dreaming). But at least it shows that the backpack has some significance, otherwise, why even put it there?

Just hopefully not shortly before or a few months after GTA 6, because then sales will certainly be significantly weaker.

I really don't understand this argument at all. As if all players have the same taste. I am one of those gamers who aren't interested in GTA at all. And I can't be the only one on this planet.

The argument basically boils down to two things''The games release won't be that noticable or talked about'' and ''Far more people would be focused on long awaited game then otherwise'' plus when a big hit franchise game releases a new installment 9 times out of 10 most any other game sales released a week or so before and a released shortly after it often unfairly suffer bad sales. its a legit pattern no matter the ip or game in general

You got it. As you can see, not only do tastes differ, but so do imaginations. :-D

Ya honestly I have seen it happen before a big game ip I have no care for drowning out mentions of other games I'd enjoy and not aware of them released till at best afew months to a year longer if at all such is the fate of many games for many a time a big game releases for lots of people.

Heck I found lots of games on Gog never knew came out or was a thing at all do to big name ip releases happened so close together
