Call of Cthulhu: Destiny's End Announced

by Maarten Goldstein May 13, 2005 9:41am CST tags: Call of Cthulhu
Call of Cthulhu: Dark Corners of the Earth still hasn't been released, but Hip Games has announced that Headfirst is also working on Call of Cthulhu: Destiny's End for release in 2006. In the horror survival game you play as the characters Emily and Jacob who investigate what happened to the town of Innsmouth. Here's three screenshots.
Destroyed by a government raid in 1928, the mysterious town of Innsmouth was left to fester in ruins for nearly 80 years. The two central characters, Emily and Jacob, return to search for the truth as they unveil the horrors of the town's past. Destiny's End will break new ground in the field of survival horror by featuring innovative co-operative gameplay whereby two players can each assume the role of one of the main protagonists at any time in the game and work together to overcome their deepest fears. Players will have to use both characters to defeat their enemies thanks to fantastic co-operative fighting combos.
