The Dark Pictures Anthology: House of Ashes (PS4)

Descend into the dark abyss of psychological survival horror in The Dark Pictures Anthology House of Ashes for PlayStation 4. Developed by Supermassive Games, this intense standalone cinematic narrative takes place at the close of the Iraq War, where a military search unit tracking down suspected weapons caches accidentally unearths a long-buried subterranean Akkadian temple dating back to the reign of King Naram-Sin. Trapped deep beneath the Arabian Desert, the surviving squad members must forge an uneasy alliance with their enemy counterparts to survive an onslaught of ancient, bloodthirsty vampiric creatures hunting them from the shadows.

The gameplay delivers a high-stakes branching narrative driven entirely by quick-time events, moral dilemmas, and character relationship dynamics. Every decision you make directly manipulates the plot, altering the survival metrics of the five playable protagonists where a single choice determines who lives or dies. Experience the claustrophobic terror entirely alone in single-player, partner with an online friend across the two-player Shared Story cooperative mode, or pass the controller around the room with up to five players in the local couch multiplayer Movie Night option.

This is the official physical retail edition.
