The release date has been revealed for A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead. This new first-person horror game based on the hit A Quiet Place film-turned-franchise is heading to PS5, Xbox Series X|S and PC on October 17th, 2024 – just in time for spooky season.
The game is being developed by Stormind Games, which also made the Remothered games as well as Batora: Lost Haven, and will cast players as a young survivor attempting to survive in the post-apocalyptic world of the films, where twisted creatures hunt using only sound and the only way to stay alive is to be dead silent. Players will have to use their ingenuity and wits to observe their surroundings, use makeshift tools and slip by the creatures unnoticed.

The game’s had some new glimpses here and there since the initial reveal trailer, showing off its tense, first-person gameplay which looks appropriately spooky and sounds appropriately quiet – at least until the “shh” hits the fan.
I’m actually quite keen for this one. The whole concept of A Quiet Place definitely lends itself quite well to a tense, immersive first-person horror game ala Alien Isolation, so hopefully the folks at Stormind and Saber can do the idea justice.
