The Chant Teaser Trailer




Looks pretty cool. From what I gather its cosmic horror in a cult beach resort. Dark Pictures have some competition this Holloween.

" The Chant is a single-player, third person horror action-adventure game set on a remote spiritual island retreat. To survive you must craft, fight, and escape the psychedelic horrors set loose when a ritual goes wrong and awakens a dimension of cosmic terror. Coming to you in October 2022. "

The concept seems fun but I need more details.
Is it an interactive movie type game like Until Dawn? A Walking simulator? A survival horror with shooting and stuff?

The new trailer is like 95% cinematics and 5% gameplay.

I still have no idea what you do in this game, only that it has third person camera.

Yeah..second trailer and it's still not clear what the game plays like.

The first trailer made me think it was going to be something like Until Dawn, but from the few glimpses it seems more action heavy? Like it's going to be more of a third person survival horror with powers based combat ?

The Chant unveils its Accolade Trailer! Pre-Order now!
Peace, tranquility and enlightenment on an idyllic remote island – what more could you possibly want? Get ready for a spiritual nightmare on Glory Island when The Chant launches later this year on PlayStation®5
 
When developers show only cinematics in their trailer instead of gameplay you know they have zero confidence in the game they're making.
So when CD Projekt Red teased Cyberpunk 2077 for the first time via CG cinematic that meant that they had no confidence in it either? Ok. 🤡

Mental mechanics? Are we getting Eternal Darkness vibes? Man we need a remaster of that game. Travesty it's been left behind and forgotten about.
