The Long Dark is a struggle for survival after a geomagnetic disaster.
The Long Dark is a struggle for survival that leads people to think and explore after a geomagnetic disaster, where players must take care of themselves as they explore the vast icy nature. There are no zombies; it's just you, and it's cold in front of you, and what Mother Nature has given you.
Bright lights illuminate the night sky. The wind takes its anger out of the thin walls of the wooden shed. In the distance a wolf howls. You look at the running supplies in your bag and want to go back to the days before the mysteriously cut off electricity. How long will you be able to survive?
Welcome to THE LONG DARK, an innovative exploration-survival experience that Wired magazine calls "the pinnacle of all style".
The Long Dark is a survival struggle that leads people to think and explore after a geomagnetic disaster, where players must take care of themselves while exploring the vast icy nature. There are no zombies; You are the only one, and the cold in front of you, and there are threats Mother Nature can point at you.
WINTERMUTE, the episodic story mode for The Long Dark, includes three of the five episodes that make up Season One. In December 2018, both episodes were fully edited with the Redux Update: new story structure, plot points, dialogue, animations, etc.
PART ONE: "Don't Be Gentle"
Glider pilot Will Mackenzie (player character) and Dr. Astrid Greenwood is leaving after a mysterious flash of light in the sky and her plane smashed in the Northern Canadian wilderness. Struggling to survive and desperately searching for Astrid, Mackenzie explores the small town of Milton, where he begins to understand the level of this silent apocalypse.
PART TWO: "Shiny Fugue"
Mackenzie's search on Astrid takes him deep into the wild desert in winter. A mysterious trapper could be the key to finding Astrid. But can he be trusted?
The first two episodes of WINTERMUTE consist of approximately 15 hours of gameplay in total. Episodes Three through Five are also included in the game price and will be unlocked for free upon release.
Featuring performances by Jennifer Hale, Mark Meer, David Hayter, and Elias Toufexis (Part Three) and music pieces by Cris Velasco.
Survival Mode is a free-form, storyless survival free-world mode that has been played for nearly three years in Early Access.
