Soma (stylized as SOMA) is a science fiction survival horror video game being developed by Frictional Games. It is expected to be released on 22 September 2015.
The game will take place on the PATHOS-2, an underwater remote research facility with machinery that begins to take human characteristics.

Surprised there was no thread on this already (unless I missed it) but it looks really good.

I still have Amnesia to play from about 5 years ago! Love Frictional Games though, one of the very few developers I trust.

ahhhh finally a game that might freak me out, the original doom used to do that when I was little, then it took an "all you can kill buffet" direction.... eww

this looks like a challenge and im going to keep an eye on this one :eek:

Suprised this hasnt generated more buzz on here!! Really could be something special, but then, on the other hand, could be rubbish

Have faith! Machine for pigs was by another dev so there is hope that this can bring some of the original amnesia/penumbra vibe back!

Just bought it for 7£ (GoG Key). Can't wait... Need something to keep me away from MGSV.

EDIT: Was hoping for a midnight release, GoG says 8am tomorrow.

How come you got it for that price may I ask?

Kinguin.net

Guess the usual gift from another country. Which is still fine on GoG.

You're really putting the hours into that streaming, it's looking good and you've settled into your streaming style, I like.

Hmmmm, 22Gb download. Bigger than I was expecting.

From NeoGaf:

No word yet on performance, hope is better optimized than Amnesia.
