The "spiritual sequel" to Amnesia: Dark Descent gets a creepy trailer that shows and hears more than it actually explains. Amnesia A Machine for Pigs, aside from a unsettling title, looks like we're trading Europe for Mexico according to the description.
From the main site:
"The year is 1899. Wealthy industrialist Oswald Mandus has returned home from a disastrous expedition to Mexico, which has ended in tragedy. Wracked by fever, haunted by dreams of a dark machine, he recovers consciousness in his own bed, with no idea of how much time has passed since his last memory. As he struggles to his feet, somewhere beneath him, an engine splutters, coughs, roars into life..."
We're not going to see Daniel or find out which ending is canonical when it comes to the fate of the Baron, since Pigs is a lot like The Amazing Spider-Man film: a reboot set in an alternate universe according to the game's writer, Dan Pinchback, who also wrote Dear Esther. We don't really need to ask if the original game's sanity meter will return, or if we can fight the monsters this time. The brief moment near the end of the teaser, where something is struggling to break down a door and squealing--that's enough teaser trailer for us, thanks.
Amnesia A Machine for Pigs doesn't have a set release date, but Frictional Games has said "before Halloween," thought that's unconfirmed.
