Soma trailer tours dark and horrible places

Our first peek at Frictional's Soma was more a hypothetical, showing off a carefully crafted snippet intended to capture the general dreadful feel of the game than any specific piece. A new trailer from the Amnesia creator's latest, however, gives a tour of some actual in-game environment, and yes, they are still terrible.

Our first peek at Frictional's Soma was more a hypothetical, showing off a carefully crafted snippet intended to capture the general dreadful feel of the game than any specific piece. A new trailer from the Amnesia creator's latest, however, gives a tour of some actual in-game environment, and yes, they are still terrible.

The "environment highlight" video shows us a place called 'Upsilon,' wherever and whatever that is. Soma's two live-action teaser trailers showed people examining eerie artifacts, though it's not yet clear if we'll be visiting these labs or simply this world of supernatural sci-fi.

Soma is slated to launch in 2015 on PC and PlayStation 4.

          A run-down sawmill/engine shop, very horrorshow. The ghosts of unpaid overtime, nonexistent workman's comp, and bad pension plans in that place is what is scary...

      Between this and Routine, I'm going to have some wet britches in the next 18 months.
