Editor's Notes
Jowday –
Tags are currently best guesses, from watching the trailer (repeatedly) and also by what options we had in Dread. Definitely saw some parrying, and I also think we’ll be seeing QTEs again… but I don’t have a tag for that as it’s exceedingly rare in this genre.
Will update this entry as more info trickles out. Really excited for this one!
