The Dark Pictures Anthology: Man of Medan is the newest horror offering from Supermassive Games. Like 2015’s Until Dawn, it follows a group of young and preppy adults out on an adventure… that goes unbelievably awry. Terror and fear hound you at every turn. It’s possible for everyone to survive, but, of course, everyone can also die. This guides and features hub for The Dark Pictures Anthology: Man of Medan will cover everything you need to know about the game.
Note: The reviews will only contain mild spoilers, enough to provide a background of the game. The guides and other features will have a number of spoilers due to outlining all the choices you’ll have to make and delving deeper into the game’s lore.
All guides and features (apart from the reviews) will also contain a spoiler warning beforehand. Please try to complete Man of Medan at least once (without any hints) to fully enjoy the narrative.
