A spiritual successor to the cult classic survival horror Gamecube exclusive, ETERNAL DARKNESS: SANTITY’S REQUIEM, has been announced.

SHADOW OF THE ETERNALS will be an episodic survival horror game released in 12 parts for the Wii U and PC.

Developer Precursor Games is seeking $1.5 million in a crowdfunding campaign to raise money for the game. According to the game’s official website, the campaign will start on the 6th.

IGN will debut gameplay footage next week, and was given a synopsis of SHADOW OF THE ETERNALS by Precursor Games.

“When Detective Paul Becker is called to one of the bloodiest gang massacres in Louisiana state history, only two survivors remain from a brutal conflict between two rival cults. As Becker begins his interrogations of the suspects, their combined recollections will uncover the truth about the ‘Eternals’.

Featuring an ensemble cast of heroes and villains, Shadow of the Eternals will span over 2500 years of history throughout Egypt, England, Hungary, and the United States. Players will question the perception of reality as they try to balance the mechanics of combat, magick, and sanity events to progress through the adventure.

Shadow of the Eternals will take players on a memorable journey throughout time; weaving historical fact with disturbing fiction to create an experience unlike any other.”
