Free-roam survival horror game ‘Darkwood’ gets live-action trailer

A new perspective on survival horror.

Acid Wizard Studio, a small independent studio from Poland, has just revealed an atmospheric live-action trailer and the release date for their free-roam survival-horror, Darkwood.

The game caused quite a stir with its successfully crowdfunded Indiegogo campaign, gathering over $57,000 and scoring more than 500,000 views on its two pre-alpha trailers.

Now the small independent studio from Poland (consisting of ”3 guys and a dog”) celebrates the final stretch on Early Access, after 3 years of refining the game together with the community and announcing a full release with this atmospheric trailer (above).
