Last week, Sony had several surprises in store at Gamescom, including the reveal of a mysterious new game called The Vanishing of Ethan Carter. It left several questions unanswered, but nevertheless set the stage for what would no doubt be a fascinating game. And now, it's not going to be too long before we get to play it.

The game will make its way to both PlayStation 4 and PC on September 25th, putting you in the shoes of Paul Prospero, a detective trying to investigate the disappearance of a young boy named Ethan Carter. How does he do this, you ask? By being able to talk to the dead.

Check out the teaser trailer below and prepare for spookiness next month.

      FYI, Twitter post from the dev says:To be clear. PC version of "The Vanishing of Ethan Carter = 25 Sept 2014. PS4 version = 2015 (the soonest we can)."

      So the ps4 version is not releasing along with the pc version as mentioned in the article.

      Looks interesting, but this cant be a $65 game. $30 at the outs.
      Im sorry for the devs, but this is a SUPER niche game here.

        Well, I heard it will cost 20 dollars/euros so should not be a problem then.

          £14.99 for steam pre-order, that seems like a very good price for this.
