The latest The Casting of Frank Stone trailer gives us a bit of background on the story behind the Dead by Daylight spinoff by Supermassive Games.
The trailer is simplistic, with a radio recounting a tragic news story, as described below.
“The victims are believed to be the parents of the fire’s only survivor, a 7-year-old boy, who narrowly escaped the inferno and was found wandering alone outside the property before being rescued by firemen.”
The Casting of Frank Stone Trailer
The Casting of Frank Stone takes place in the world of Dead by Daylight, but will be a narrative-driven adventure akin to Supermassive’s The Dark Pictures anthology and The Quarry.
This latest trailer follows a similar one from last week that reported on a murder case.
“While Mrs. Clay’s nephew Elvin, a minor felon who stood to benefit from her inheritance, was charged and convicted following a rapid investigation by Sheriff Kusich, residents of Cedar Hills continue to pray that justice will be served as swiftly once again.”
The shadow of Frank Stone looms over Cedar Hills, a town forever altered by his violent past. As a group of young friends are about to discover, Stone’s blood-soaked legacy cuts deep, leaving scars across families, generations, and the very fabric of reality itself.
In the depths of an Oregon steel mill, the gruesome crimes of a sadistic killer spawn horrors beyond comprehension. Delve into the mystery of Cedar Hills alongside an original cast of characters bound together on a twisted journey where nothing is quite as it seems.
Every decision you make shapes the story and impacts the fate of the characters within it. Brimming with emotional gut-punches and high-stakes horror, discover how a simple decision can become a truly heart-wrenching dilemma.
For those who find comfort in the unknown, and glee in the grotesque, Supermassive Games’ cinematic storytelling brings new levels of emotion, immersion, and intensity to this darkly rich universe.
Experience a never-before-seen look at the wider world of Dead by Daylight, Behaviour Interactive’s acclaimed multiplayer horror game. Filled with spine-chilling twists, this dark original tale is certain to haunt you long after it’s over.
The Casting of Frank Stone is due to hit PS5 in 2024.
