Blue Box Game Studios is looking to put the minds of gamers at ease by offering up a free copy of the studio’s upcoming PlayStation 5 game Abandoned to those who purchased an unfinished, early access version of the studio’s previous game, The Haunting: Blood Water Curse.
The news, via an IGN interview with Blue Box head Hasan Kahraman, comes in the wake of the studio releasing a “realtime experience app” for PS5 that didn’t go exactly as planned. When the highly anticipated trailer (after multiple delays) didn’t actually turn out to be a trailer at all but instead just a gif of a man walking that had already been shared on Twitter, skeptical players began to renew their investigations into Blue Box’s history.
