A new trailer has arrived for Directive 8020 and it looks absolutely terrifying.
Supermassive Games has revealed a brand-new 60-second trailer for Directive 8020, its cinematic sci-fi survival horror adventure launching on May 12, 2026.
Premiering at the Galaxies Showcase, the trailer offers players a final pre-launch briefing on the nightmare awaiting aboard the colony ship Cassiopeia, where a mission to secure humanity’s future becomes a desperate fight for survival against an alien organism capable of mimicking its prey.
From the creators of Until Dawn and The Quarry comes an all-new sci-fi survival horror adventure where Earth is dying and humanity is running out of time. Sent on a mission to Tau Ceti f, the crew of the colony ship Cassiopeia crash-land far from home, and soon realize they are not alone. Hunted by an alien organism that can imitate its prey, paranoia spreads quickly as trust begins to collapse among the crew.
Directive 8020 evolves The Dark Pictures formula, blending cinematic storytelling with more active survival gameplay. Players must evade real-time threats, react under pressure, and harness new stealth mechanics to avoid detection by an enemy that could be anyone – even a member of your own crew. Every movement matters. Every sound can give you away. Every decision can cost a life.
With a branching narrative shaped by player choice, players for the first time in a Dark Pictures game can see their decisions mapped out in a story tree with the ability to rewind by using Turning Points, or live and die by their choices in survival mode.
