Call of Cthulhu Trailer Previews the Madness as Game Goes Gold

Cyanide and Focus Home Interactive’s video game adaptation of Call of Cthulhu recently went gold, and to mark the occasion, the companies have released a brand new preview of the upcoming madness.

The trailer below briefly showcases the game’s Lovecraftian atmosphere, and audio and visual design.

An official overview of the title is as follows:

In Call of Cthulhu, nothing is as it seems. Terrible creatures, conspiracies and cults await on Darkwater Island, lining the path to the horrifying truth behind the island. Pierce’s mind will suffer – solving the case will bring him to brink of insanity, to a place where death may appear the most favorable outcome. The player’s senses will be challenged to the point of questioning whether everything and everyone is real or illusory. Creeping shadows hide lurking figures… and all the while, the Great Dreamer prepares for his awakening.

Key features:
