New Version of Amnesia: The Dark Descent Planned for End of 2026
Frictional Games has announced plans for a new version of Amnesia: The Dark Descent, according to information discovered in the studio’s 2025 annual report. The new version is scheduled for release towards the end of 2026.
The original Amnesia: The Dark Descent launched in 2010 and became a landmark title in the first-person horror genre. While the latest main installment in the series released in 2023, the studio appears to be revisiting the franchise’s original entry for this upcoming release.
Details about the nature of this new version remain unclear. The annual report does not specify whether this will be a full remake, a remaster, or another type of reimagining of the classic horror game. The announcement went largely unnoticed when the report was initially released in June, but was subsequently discovered and shared by the gaming community on Reddit.
This news represents a significant focus for Frictional Games’ upcoming output, with the studio committing development resources to bringing the 16-year-old horror title to a new audience or format. Further details about the project’s scope and platforms are expected to be revealed closer to its intended release window.
