Dark Pictures games get free PS5 and Series X versions with new ending

Supermassive Games has spent the past few years expanding its Dark Pictures Anthology of titles, with the series now spanning across two console generations. In order to make for a more cohesive package, a number of entries in the Dark Pictures Anthology now have bespoke PS5 and Xbox Series X|S releases.

As reported by Wario64, new PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S versions of both Man of Medan and Little Hope have popped up on each console’s respective stores, bringing the two earliest entries more in line with the remainder of the series technologically.

These new versions come with much more than a simple facelift in the form of improved graphics and performance however, they also add a whole host of new content, including:

  • Difficulty settings & QTE warnings, improved UI & interactions, updated bearing’s art & event triggers, increased walk speeds and wider accessibility options including subtitle sizing.
  • (Man of Medan) Discover an extended playable chapter “Flooded”, introducing new deaths in this climatic ending to the game!

The various Dark Pictures Anthology games have been hit or miss from entry to entry. As such, it is interesting and exciting to see that these upgrades come with not only graphical improvements, but changes to the core game itself. Both Man of Medan and Little Hope can be upgraded for free assuming you own the game on a previous-gen system.

KitGuru Games: Predicting the Next Half a Decade of Call of Duty Releases

Benjamin Franklin (1706-1790) famously once said: “The three absolutes in life are death, taxes and a new Call of Duty coming out every single year”. Sure enough, the US founding father has yet to be proven wrong, with Activision and a dozen studios having ensured that come the tail-end of any given year, there will be a new COD ready to release. And so, what can we expect from the franchise later this year? What about 2027, 2028 or even 2030? By looking back at the past two decades of Call of Duty games, their trends, progression and regression, I believe I can predict the next 5 years worth of annual COD entries.
