Atari has released the E3 2006 trailer for Alone in the Dark: Near Death Investigation, the upcoming adventure game developed by Eden Games which will feature an episodic game structure. It will be splitted into distinct episodes in a season-style format. Eden Games has departed from the typical ten-hour game based on film-style scripts and structures and focuses on TV-season format. Each episode will offer approximately 30-40 minutes of gameplay. Each time the player launches a saved game, the episode will begin with a video summary of the previous episode to quickly re-immerse the player in the story, removing the need to remember where they were or what they were doing. Every episode will close with a nail-biting cliff-hanger ending to rattle players' nerves, and if the player is leaving the game, a video teaser of the next episode will play to leave them wanting more. Alone in the Dark: Near Death Investigation will be released for PC and Xbox 360.
