Question is, was The Bunker really worth striking a match for? Going Underground And although eras and worlds apart, I still found myself wanting to return to relight the flame beneath Frictional Games’ impenetrable lantern. In spite of everything, its rich gothic aesthetics and bone-shattering soundboard somehow managed to draw me back to the cobble halls of Brennenburg. Needless to say that, when I unearthed the blueprint that would later formulate into Amnesia: The Bunker, I was skeptical-cautious, even, over the fact that it wouldn’t have the power to rediscover the essence that made it the poster child of noughties horror way back in 2010. Granted, the universally acclaimed horror saga left little more than a depressingly sour note on the end of my tongue following the hit-and-miss release of 2020’s Amnesia: Rebirth. As a result, I for one lost a fifth of faith in Frictional Games-something that I couldn’t quite come to terms with ever being remotely possible. At long last, it has arrived on consoles and PC, and it brings with it a selection of gifts that go far beyond cheap thrills, oil flasks, and shreds of parchment paper. The disgruntled shadows of the steampunk-infused Brennenburg Castle have long been clasping at straws, desperate to witness Frictional Games rekindle the lantern illuminating the beloved horror anthology that is Amnesia. The time is nigh, and the newly appointed torchbearer for the IP is none other than a World War I-themed powerhouse known only as The Bunker.
