The Devil’s in the Details: Unreal Engine 5 and More
The update isn’t just a coat of new paint; it’s a total transformation. Leveraging the power of Unreal Engine 5, every interaction in this horror saga—from the spooky shadows to Slender Man’s every menacing move—is rendered in jaw-dropping detail.
A Fresh Chapter to Spook You: “Nightmare”
Stepping up the creepy factor, the update serves a brand-new chapter called “Nightmare,” which trails Charlie Matheson’s father as he dives deeper into insanity. Brace yourselves, it’s gonna be a wild descent!
Play Your Way: Original vs Updated
For those who have a soft spot for the original, no worries. Players have the option to swap between the new and old versions on Steam. Just switch branches on your Steam client, and you’re good to go.
Talk the Talk: Multi-Language Support
Blue Isle Studios didn’t skimp on accessibility. They’ve revamped pickups, readables, and subtitles in multiple languages, including English, French, Italian, German, Spanish, Russian, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, Japanese, and Portuguese.
What’s Next: Robust Roadmap Revealed
During Unreal Fest, the studio teased a robust roadmap for 2024. It’s gonna pack multiplayer options, additional chapters, and even a cross-platform mod kit. The mod kit will be supported by CurseForge and Overwolf, opening up a realm of customization.
Price Tag and Availability
The revamped Slender: The Arrival is out and up for grabs at $19.99. It’s available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Steam, and Epic Games Store.
