The Park


Here comes another horror announcement that is as mysterious as it is intriguing, welcome to The Park. In development by Funcom, the Norwegian studio that previously released the online F2P title, Age of Conan, this title “puts you in the shoes of a mother whose son goes missing.” It’s every parent’s worst nightmare, and it’s set in a closed amusement park... at night. Isn’t that everyone’s nightmare?


"When night falls and the lights go out, what follows is a short, but intense horror story set against the backdrop of an amusement park where a dark and sinister secret is just waiting to be uncovered." It better not be clowns. If it’s clowns, I’m out.


"The Park is actually the outcome of what started with a small group of developers experimenting with new concepts and looking at how we could draw upon the universes we have built for our massively multiplayer online games and expand upon them into smaller-scale single-player games," Funcom CEO Rui Casais said in a press release. 


And again, much like the LittleBigPlanet-esque horror, Hunger, from yesterday’s article, The Park hasn’t yet shown any more information. I'll be keeping an eye on this horror going forward and let you know if anything new is announced. I don't think we'll have to wait that long, as Funcom are aiming for an October release.
