Like the classics,Tormented Soulsis filled withtraditional survival horror gameplay. Players will have to solve complex and challenging puzzles, all while cleverly avoiding deadly traps and worse. And whileTormented Soulsis fixed-perspective just like older survival horror games, it also features modernized controls and a dynamic camera. And clearly visuals have come a long way since the 90s, too.

It starts with how the game will begin, with Walker awakening in a bathtub hooked up to a strange machine. Things only get stranger from there, with Walker encountering mystery otherworldly mirrors, as well as some sort of terrible monstrosity. Perhaps a victim of the mansion’s awful experimentation. It’s clear that Walker is not alone in this old, mysterious mansion.
