The episodic story-mode for The Long Dark, WINTERMUTE, includes four of the five episodes that form WINTERMUTE. There are no zombies - only you, the cold, and all the threats Mother Nature can muster. The Long Dark is a thoughtful, exploration-survival experience that challenges solo players to think for themselves as they explore an expansive frozen wilderness in the aftermath of a geomagnetic disaster. Welcome to THE LONG DARK, the innovative exploration-survival experience Wired magazine calls 'the pinnacle of an entire genre'.
You look at the meager supplies in your pack, and wish for the days before the power mysteriously went out. The wind rages outside the thin walls of your wooden cabin.
Bright lights flare across the night sky.
