Developer Frogwares Studios and publisher BigBen Interactive have released the big new gameplay trailer for their anticipated open-world investigation game; The Sinking City.
The setting is New England in the 1920s, the fictional city of Oakmont, Massachusetts. Oakmont has had some flooding issues lately…but that’s not the least of it. All that water is supernatural in origin, a by-product of the Lovecraftian monsters invading the city. A private investigator arrives to determine what’s up. Charles W. Reed must explore the city, gather clues and figure out how to end the invasion — if Oakmont doesn’t rob him of his sanity first.
We not only have a new trailer, but a release date: The Sinking City will be out for Playstation 4, XBox One and PC March 21, 2019. More of the game will be shown to the press at Gamescom.
