[Watch] Call of Cthulhu releases new ‘Depths of Madness’ story trailer

Call of Cthulhu has always been one of those IP's with an identity that is truly all its own. Hell, the same goes for anything H.P. Lovecraft. Simply put, you know the Lovecraftian touch when you see it. The upcoming Call of Cthulhu game oozes the Lovecraftian aura if the trailer above is any indication. The game itself is described as an "RPG Investigation game blending psychological horror and stealth mechanics in a deeply immersive world with an oppressive atmosphere." according to an official press release.

Call of Cthulhu casts you in the role of Edward Pierce, a private detective attempting to solve a murder case involving an acclaimed artist and her family under mysterious circumstances. These events are leading Pierce to discover mutilated whales and disappearing bodies, as his reality steadily becomes more and more skewed.

As Pierce's investigation unfolds, he finds himself closer and closer to the Great Dreamer, Cthulhu and must balance what he knows to be real and seeking out the truth among the madness. Great stuff, right?

Call of Cthulhu does not currently have a release date, but we will let you know when we hear something.
