Abandoned feature

First gameplay footage for Abandoned will surprise you, and it’s not Metal Gear Solid or Silent Hill

Abandoned is the gift that keeps on giving. After numerous delays, Blue Box Game Studios issued a patch for Abandoned that introduces a… 5 seconds GIF. And that’s it.

Ironically, this gameplay footage is the exact same Blue Box shared on Twitter before delaying it. In other words, gamers have been waiting for two entire days for a GIF that Blue Box had already shown.

I’ve said it before and I’ll say it again; this is one of the best gaming trolling jokes we’ve seen to date. After numerous delays, Blue Box had delivered mere seconds of in-engine footage. And no, this isn’t Metal Gear Solid or Silent Hill.

At this point, I’m simply reporting this just for the fun. Because this is truly hilarious. And I personally love every second of it.

Fun fact: With this constant baiting and switching, Blue Box has managed to increase its Twitter followers to 56K. In other words, this unknown indie studio has more followers than Housemargue, the team behind Returnal and Resogun.

In case you want to see this 5 second GIF, you can go ahead and watch it below. Again, this was posted before the app went live. I guess that 5 seconds footage is what Blue Box has managed to create this whole time, which is why there isn’t anything else. So, again, what was the purpose of releasing an app for Abandoned? PR marketing and nothing more.

This is one of the best gaming pranks. And, let the new theories begin for this being a “secret” app of a new Silent Hill or Metal Gear Solid game. After all, the main character looks like the one from Silent Hill (which isn’t really hard to fake) right? Right?

    1. That will be all his character development. He was white. He was cis. He was a male. He refused to address to our d/ke protagonist as “them”.

  1. Ready for what? they canceled every game they announced since 2015 and now deleted all the tweets that mentions fixing the app while their website is down 😀

  2. Why don’t people see that these guys are just using the hype to get free advertisment ?
    Kojima trolls are interesting and somewhat better quality than this low effort sh**posting

  3. The same teaser they released on Twitter few days ago, now you can watch “in app” and they are promoting as “new” “gameplay trailer”
    Sony/Playstation is no even promoting they sh*t.

  4. I’m surprised ppl have patience for this. I’d unfollow by now since it seems like a big troll. On one hand I applaud the troll but on the other I wouldn’t be hyped about this game anymore. That gif looked low budget as hell. There def isn’t any game lol. The name of the game is the joke… ABANDONED!!

  6. Why do you say it can’t be Silent Hill? Have you heard the music that accompanies the 5 seconds of “gameplay” on the app? It’s almost the same as the theme of Silent Hill!
    It’s true that the elusive Hasan Kahrama explicitly said that the game does not deal with Silent Hill, Metal Gear or Kojima …. but at this point I no longer believe anything that says …..
    I think that instead it’s own Kojima San and Hasan Kahrama is just a Joke!

    1. They just want to be like Scam Citizen, but they don’t even want to release a demo.
      Scammers are getting lazier!
