The game successfully remakes the original game, and it looks good in graphics. The game also gives the feeling of old horror games through its atmosphere, haunted house design, and music.

The Bad Things About Alone in the Dark 2024
As per critics the game’s story is gripping and full of thrills but the combat system drags down the game. The combat system of Alone in the Dark is repetitive. Due to which flights aren’t enjoyable. If you compare the game with other survival games such as Resident Evil 4, and Alan Wake 2, then you will be disappointed at how bad the game is.
Overall Alone in the Dark 2024 is an average game, with lots of potential. The game was the pioneer of survival horror games, and a lot of games took inspiration from it. You still can play it to feel the 90s horror, wait for game discounts.
Alone in the Dark 2024 is available to play on Xbox Series X/S, PS5, and Windows PC.Â
