Bendy and the Dark Revival (2022)
Play as Audrey as she explores the depths of a curiously creepy animation studio that’s gone completely mad. Return to a drawn world of nightmares to sneak, fight, and solve your way through its many deep shadows. Collect the powers of the ink and upgrade your weapon to overcome terrifying obstacles and unspeakable monsters. A twisted rogue's gallery of re-animated abominations await you. They stalk the halls ready to attack and demolish anything in their path. Prepare to face these inky inhabitants on their own dark turf. Above all, beware the Ink Demon. The grim story unfolds as you dive in the lost reaches of the past. Discover who you are. Uncover the truth to set yourself free from the stained hell of Joey Drew Studios.
