THQ Nordic has recently revealed the Collector's Edition for the upcoming Alone in the Dark remake, and it's packed with some chilling items. The iconic horror franchise is making a comeback this year with a fresh look for modern gaming audiences.

The Alone in the Dark remake, announced in 2022, promises an entirely original storyline crafted by Mikael Hedberg, one of the writers behind Amnesia: The Dark Descent. Set in the 1920s, the game follows Emily Hartwood, a young woman on a quest to find her missing uncle, accompanied by private investigator Edward Carnby. This time, the eerie adventure takes place in the American Gothic South, where players must navigate haunting environments, fight for survival, and unravel the mysteries of the ominous Derceto mansion.

The Collector's Edition of Alone in the Dark introduces a set of spine-chilling collectibles. While no prior knowledge of the franchise is required to dive into the game's story, fans will undoubtedly find moments of nostalgia as they explore the revamped world. The edition includes a console or PC copy of the game, a 10-inch statue of The Dark Man, and a 4-inch miniature of Ostadte. Alongside these, players will also receive a SteelBook, a "do not disturb" door hanger, and a set of Derceto 1930 wall stickers. Moreover, the Collector's Edition comes with bonus downloadable content, such as the Derceto 1992 Costume Pack, Director's Commentary Mode, and Vintage Horror Filter Pack.

Those eager to secure the Alone in the Dark Collector's Edition should act fast, as it will be available in a limited run of only 5,000 copies worldwide. The first 20 copies can be found at the THQ Nordic Vienna Store, while copies 21 to 4,999 will be available through THQ Nordic's online store and select retail partners. The final copy, number 5,000, will be preserved at the Embracer Games Archive, a game preservation center based in Sweden.

The Alone in the Dark remake breathes new life into the original 1992 trilogy and marks the first release since 2015's Alone in the Dark: Illumination. As the gaming industry witnesses a resurgence of remakes, horror game enthusiasts can look forward to a promising year with this highly-anticipated remake. Fans of the classic franchise can't wait to experience the fresh elements of the game while keeping the haunting essence of the original intact.
