Psychological Horror Game The Park Coming To Consoles
Developer Funcom has announced that its psychological horror game, The Park, is coming to the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. A release window has also been announced.
Funcom, who also developed the occult-themed MMO The Secret World, announced that the game is set to release in Q1 of 2016. No pricing information has been released, but the game is currently priced at $12.99 on Steam.
The Park tells the story of a young mother searching for her son in a haunted theme park, complete with the dark themes of depression and loss. According to the developer, the game is set in the same universe as The Secret World, but a familiarity with the game isn’t required to play it.

Our Take
With Jeff Cork's review indicating a moderate level of craftsmanship and tension for players to face, console owners still looking for a post-Halloween horror fix may have something to look forward to.
