The Remothered games are true cult classics in the way that players find them either insufferable or inspired. As a lover of developer Stormind Games’ antique perversions, but also a hater of its convoluted storytelling, I regretfully exist somewhere in between. But I know I won’t be able to resist the new Remothered: Red Nun’s Legacy when it launches later this month, since the horror game legends who helped make the Italian gothic game are way too good. Red Nun’s Legacy will feature legendary Silent Hill composer Akira Yamaoka, and its Red Nun enemy is voiced by Resident Evil alumna Maggie Robertson.
Remothered: Red Nun’s Legacy latest trailer, which premiered today during the latest Horror Game Awards showcase, revels in the weathered stone buildings and marble fountain angels of the game’s Sicilian setting. Stormind Games’ developers are based in Sicily themselves, so recreating the decaying decadence of the island for Red Nun’s Legacy was like trying to catch a dream right upon waking: You may never remember every detail, but you know the smells and feelings perfectly, because you lived through them.
