YouTube’s ‘theRadBrad’ has shared a video, showing almost an hour of gameplay footage from the upcoming Lovecraftian game, The Sinking City. This video obviously contains spoilers for the first hour of the game, therefore we strongly suggest avoiding it if you want to experience it yourselves.
In The Sinking City, players will step into Oakmont, Massachusetts – a place suffering decay and rot from unprecedented supernatural floods that slowly envelope the city and the minds of its inhabitants. Players will assume the role of private investigator Charles W. Reed who finds himself in this place.
While slowly going insane from his own demons, players will need to use their detective skills to reveal the truth behind the unfathomable powers gripping Charles, the city, and its deranged citizens.
The Sinking City is currently planned for a June 27th release on the Epic Games Store.
Enjoy!

Looked mediocre in the extreme to me based on that extended gameplay video. Seemingly not even worth downloading for free given that it’s an #EpicFail exclusive.
Well , when you know that your product it’s sub-par why take a chance if it’s going to make a profit.
????? Really? I thought it looked pretty good.
Does every detective game need ghostly figures and gay vision? Is it some kind of unwritten rule or something?
“gay vision”
and a gaydar to find all the gays. You can jam the gaydar by throwing glitter, its like chaff.
I can’t wait to play this game. Looks so good, immersive and thrilling.
Downloading p*rn is a worthwhile use of my Internet bandwidth over pirating this sterile crap.
Oh for the love of God (Cthulhu in this case) what the hell is this?! When will the developers realize that when a game is full of dialogue you need proper facial expressions, otherwise it looks bad and honestly cheap.
it’s not too bad for a small studio
What do you mean? Ye sure they are not a triple A studio with 200 employees but they are far from “small”.
There are tons of games with worse facial animation developed by AAA studios. The sinking city is definitely a step up from their previous game (sherlock holmes the devils daughter).

Even so it is not an excuse especially when the rest of the game looks mediocre at best. Let’s just hope it’s story will save it from the impending doom.
Not bad for a free game.
Epic, make piracy great again.
It looks like a mixed bag… Some Vanishing of Ethan Carter here, a lot of LA Noire there, etc
Didn´t get much of my attention, but i liked the fast paced movement and animations. Games nowadays have awesome graphics, but often seem heavy… as if placed underwater.
