Author : Scarlett Mar 21,2025

Big Bad Wolf, the studio behind acclaimed games like Vampire: The Masquerade – Swansong and The Council, has unveiled its next project: Cthulhu: The Cosmic Abyss. The announcement included a stunning CG trailer introducing Noah, the protagonist battling encroaching madness, the submerged city of R'lyeh, and the terrifying Great Old One, Cthulhu himself.

The year is 2053. Deep-sea mining corporations unwittingly awaken an ancient cosmic horror. Players assume the role of Noah, an Interpol agent specializing in occult affairs, investigating the mysterious disappearance of miners in the Pacific. Aided by Key, his AI companion, players will explore the secrets of the sunken city of R'lyeh, solve challenging puzzles, and struggle to maintain their sanity amidst Cthulhu's insidious influence.

Built using Unreal Engine 5, the game promises surreal and mind-bending environments, creating a truly immersive and haunting atmosphere. The recently released trailer hints at a tense and thrilling adventure. Cthulhu: The Cosmic Abyss is slated for release in 2026 on PS5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC.

Separately, Frogwares recently shared gameplay footage of The Sinking City 2, another Lovecraftian-inspired title.
