The Thing: Remastered brings the cult-classic 2002 survival horror game back to life, fully remastered by Nightdive Studios.
Serving as a sequel to John Carpenter's legendary 1982 film, the game combines third-person shooting, squad-based gameplay and psychological survival horror in the frozen wastes of Antarctica.
Take control of Captain J.F. Blake, leader of a U.S. Special Forces rescue team sent to investigate the mysterious events at Outpost 31.
Faced with a shape-shifting alien capable of imitating its victims, survival depends not only on combat but also on managing the trust and fear of your squad, never knowing who may still be human.
Battle through 20 levels using machine guns, explosives, flamethrowers and your squad's specialist abilities.
The remaster features improved character models, textures, dynamic lighting, shadows and other visual enhancements, alongside gameplay improvements that modernise the original while retaining its distinctive atmosphere and mechanics.
