A psychological horror game, Shadow of the Eternals is the spiritual successor to Eternal Darkness: Sanity’s Requiem, being developed by the original creators of the popular and critically acclaimed classic. Featuring an eclectic cast of heroes and villains, Shadow of the Eternals will span thousands of years of history. Players’ perception of reality will be shattered as they try to balance the mechanics of combat, magick, and exploration as they progress through the adventure. 

Such is the description of Shadow of the Eternals on its new Kickstarter campaign.

As it was previously announced, a second Kickstarter campaign has just been launched today to support Shadow of the Eternals, the game advertised as the spiritual sequel of Eternal Darkness. More modest this time, the goal is set at $ 750,000, in contrast to 1.35 million the first time. Other adjustments appear to have been made since the presentation of the game no longer mentions dividing the game into episodes. It is therefore not clear whether the funding is for the entire game or simply the first chapter of a great adventure.

What is certain is that the project of Shadow of the Eternals has found a voice in the person of David Hayter. The actor who is traditionally associated with Solid Snake in Metal Gear Solid, is known to have doubled Paul Becker, the hero of Shadow of the Eternals. Since David Hayter was already part of the Eternal Darkness adventure, his participation in the Shadow of the Eternals was only natural.

A Shadow of the Eternals Beta access (PC only) will also be offered to backers that pledged $100 and above, allowing players to try the game early and offer feedback.

Finally, if donations are sufficient, the Precursor Games team promises to tackle a PlayStation 4 release in addition to the PC and Wii U versions that are already underway. If you wish to make a contribution to the development of this, visit the Kickstarter page of Shadow of the Eternals.

Moreover, please note that at the time of this post, the Kickstarter campaign already gathered over $55,000 from 1,300 backers, quite a feat when you consider the fact that the first campaign only gathered $128,039 from 2,412 backers in a month.
