Alone within the Dark, the brand new survival horror game from Pieces Interactive that stars David Harbour (Stranger Things) and Jodie Comer (The Last Duel) in a brand new story and reimagining of the 1992 MS-DOS classic, has failed to fulfill sales expectations, in keeping with a brand new Q4 & Full 12 months Report that Embracer Group released today. Outcast: A Latest Starting, a sequel to the action-adventure game from Appeal Studios that sees protagonist Cutter Slade back within the alien world of Adelpha, as introduced within the 1999 original, can also be being looked as a disappointment by Embracer executives.
Embracer mentioned in its financial report:
- “In Q4, results were…impacted by a softer-than-expected performance for the 2 titles Alone within the Dark and Outcast: A Latest Starting, developed and published by THQ Nordic.
- “Alone within the Dark and Outcast: A Latest Starting each saw a positive reception from users, but a mixed reception from critics and ultimately performed below management expectations.”
- “Revenue from recent releases amounted to SEK 692 million within the quarter, a rise of 27% YoY. The foremost revenue drivers amongst recent releases within the quarter were Star Wars: Battlefront Classic Collection, SOUTH PARK: SNOW DAY!, Tomb Raider I-III Remastered, Alone within the Dark and Deep Rock Galactic: Survivor.”
- “Other recent releases within the quarter included Lightyear Frontier, Outcast: A Latest Starting, Expeditions: A Mudrunner Game, We’re Football 2024, SpellRogue and Bears In Space.”
