A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead's New Gameplay Footage Faithfully Recreates the Tension Found in the Films
IGN can reveal new gameplay footage for Stormind Games and Saber Interactive’s upcoming horror game A Quite Place: The Road Ahead.
In the new footage you can view below, we can view roughly 10 minutes of new gameplay footage. As we saw in the previous two trailers and those familiar with the horror movie franchise, it is based on the fact that A Quite Place: The Road Ahead emphasizes moving in silence to avoid being killed by a hostile alien creature. Even the smallest sounds, like a rat scurrying and kicking an empty can, will alter nearby enemies.
Based on the gameplay footage, this is an early section of the game. The start of the footage reveals that it has been 119 days since the world went quiet. Towards the end of the footage, we can see the alien creature appear close to the character, with the HUD showcasing when the enemy is too close to the player.
More interestingly, the HUD for A Quiet Place: Day One is relatively minimal, akin to horror games like Visage. Imagery appears when the character switches between holding a flashlight or a sound detection device. In addition to remaining discrete as you traverse the world, we learned the playable character is asthmatic, requiring players to ensure the character ensures any possibility of having breathing difficulties with a status bar of her lungs.
A Quite Place video game was announced in 2021 with the project’s original developers, a collaborative effort between iLLOGIKA and EP1T0ME. The game was supposed to be released in 2022, but news on it was scarce following its initial announcement. That would change three years later when publisher Saber Interactive announced the game’s official title, revealing that Stormind Games was assigned development duties with a target release window of 2024.
