Penumbra Collection Coming February to PC

PC

Paradox Interactive has announced that the series of innovative horror games - the Penumbra Collection will be released for PC next month. It will consist of Penumbra: Overdue and Penumbra: Black Plague, and the expansion pack Requiem.

What is interesting about the game, is that was developed by just a two-man team, Frictional Games.

To lead up to the release, they've released a new trailer on YouTube, which you can watch here.

The game will be available for digital download in Feburary for PC.

From the publishers:

Penumbra Overture introduced players to Philip Buchanan who, following his mother’s death, receives a letter from his supposedly dead father, a man who left before he was even born, his reasons for doing so a mystery leaving Philip with many unanswered questions. The letter and those questions lead Philip to the arctic wastes of Greenland, to a location mentioned in his father’s ambiguous note and the beginning of our adventure as he begins to uncover disturbing facts about his past that not only affect himself, but all of mankind.

Commenting on the process of making Penumbra: Overture, Thomas Grip, Lead Programmer and Co-Founder at Frictional Games said, “Overture was the first Penumbra game and where it all began. In the game we aimed at giving the player a sense of isolation, claustrophobic horror and making it a desperate fight for survival. Overture binds together a lot of innovative ideas in an intense gaming environment.”
