The next title in the We Were Here IP is announced with We Were Here Forever hitting all of the next-gen platforms this year
We will soon get to head back to that dark and cold place of Castle Rock with the most recent announcement for We Were Here Forever. The next in the line of games from Total Mayhem Games has been given the official announcement and looks to bring the fourth in the line to the PS5, Xbox Series X, and PC before the end of this year. All of which comes close on the heels of the release of the other titles in the We Were Here series on the PlayStation last month. Amazing news for those that may have powered through those recently or way back when they first hit the PC and Xbox. Not too much time will pass before you and your friend are back in the mix of it all trying to survive everything that the game has to throw at you.
For those not familiar with the We Were Here series, it is one that takes place in the frozen lands of the Antarctic where our two survivors have been lost and need to adventure and work together to escape Castle Rock. They will have an in-game walkie-talkie to communicate as they will be separated for most of the adventure as they try to figure things out and just survive. Kind of the usual MO when it comes to titles like that and everything. Given that We Were Here Forever is slated as the largest in the series so far, this could mean there will be a whole lot more to discover and use to figure out all of these puzzles and dangers along the way. Look for it by the end of this year for certain.
