Amnesia: The Bunker marks a fresh start for the franchise.

Amnesia: The Bunker, the upcoming sequel from Frictional Games, takes a unique approach to story-driven survival horror, focusing more on the moment-to-moment actions and choices you make taking that daring plunge into the unknown. The game takes place during World War 1 and features a less guided and semi-open setting to explore, with a focus on resource management and careful navigation. The game director wants The Bunker to be a game that you'll want to play multiple times over, with each run leading to different moments in the "player story."
