Developer Crack Head Games has announced it is beavering away on a new survival horror title for PlayStation 4, PC, Switch, and Xbox One.

Silver Chains is currently pencilled in for release in spring 2019, and takes place from a first-person perspective. Apparently, it'll place a strong emphasis on narrative and exploration, so it sounds very old-school in that respect. It even has a bit of a Resident Evil vibe going for it as you explore a creepy old manor. Awesome.

You control a chap named Peter, who wakes up in the sprawling abode in rural England with no knowledge of why or how he ended up there. In typical horror fashion, he soon finds out he's not alone, and what's more, appears to have some sort of connection to the creaking manor.

As well as solving puzzles, Silver Chains also has you on the run from a creature that stalks you throughout the game. The press blurb indicates you won't be able to fight it though: 'run for your life or find a place to hide,' it warns.

Silver Chains is due out on PS4, PC, Switch, and Xbox One in spring 2019. Check out a trailer below to get a better feel for the game.
