Call of Cthulhu embraces madness in E3 Trailer

Call of Cthulhu, Cyanide Studio’s upcoming RPG-investigation game unleashes its E3 Trailer. Plunge into the troubled mind of private investigator Edward Pierce, as his perception of reality becomes more and more skewed the closer he gets to the Great Dreamer’s sphere of influence. Clutch to your withering sanity to discover the conspiracies, the cultists and otherworldly terrors that inhabit the twisted universe imagined by Lovecraft… it is said that madness is the only way that can bring you to the truth.



Sent to Darkwater Island to uncover the truth behind a mysterious death of a family, your original assignment spirals out of control against a backdrop of suspicious locals, mutilated whales, and disappearing bodies. Pierce’s mind will suffer - balancing a razor-thin line between sanity and madness, your senses will be disrupted until you question the reality of everything around you. Trust no one. Creeping shadows hide lurking figures… and all the while, the Great Dreamer prepares for his awakening.

Call of Cthulhu will release on PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and PC.

The game messed up Lovecraft lore really bad.
Lovecraft mythos is the basis of all high fantasy, which specify a hierarchy with different levels of gods and monsters, and all that. In this hierarchy, though Culthulu appears god like, it, along with the great old ones, are as much worthless as us in face of greater beings. Sadly most works afterward does not go deep cause at if you go deep into Lovecraft you will realize even metaphysics "is an illusion".

Wasn't there a Call of Cthulhu game before? Is this a remake or something?

There was Call of Cthulu Dark Corners of the Earth on the OG Xbox and PC that was really good.
This is nothing to do with that though.

Thing is though this trailer felt very, very similar to that other game, ever few seconds I was like didn't I see that before....

They shoulda went with something like this instead. ;)
