The Long Dark story mode launches today

“Bright lights flare across the night sky. The wind rages outside the thin walls of your wooden cabin. A wolf howls in the distance.”

The Long Dark hit Steam as an early-access title on September 22, 2014. Since then, I enjoyedThe Long Dark at full even though it is in early-access and I can’t even imagine how the story mode will hit me.

The Long Dark is a first-person open world survival simulation game and we are a crash-landed bush pilot who must survive the frigid Canadian wilderness after a global disaster. The game offers such beauty and tranquility which are so rare to find these days. The sunsets, the sound of the wind, the loneliness, the sound of your feet crushing the snow, the sky and many many more.

And finally, today, the first two chapters of The Long Dark‘s story mode will be out. Do Not Go Gentle and Luminance Fugue will tell the story of how bush pilot Will Mackenzie and Dr. Astrid Greenwood got separated and how the world ended up like this.

Here, take a look at the launch trailer:

The first first two parts of the Wintermute story mode will be available today for PC, PlayStation 4 and Xbox One.

Enjoy your silent apocalypse!
