Ahead of the release of A Quiet Place: Day One, the franchise is continuing its media dominance. Saber Interactive announced that it’s publishing A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead, a first-person, single-player horror video game due out later in 2024 for PC, PlayStation 5, and the Xbox Series X/S.

The game takes place in the Quiet Place universe, but features a whole new story about a woman trying to survive the alien apocalypse while dealing with “the anguish of interpersonal family conflicts and her own inner fears.” The gameplay, similar to the movies, will focus on stealth as you try to get around the creatures without making a sound, and scrounging up items and tools that you can use to improvise your way out of situations.

It’s being developed by Stormind Games, most known to video game fans as the studio behind the Remothered survival horror games, but it’s also done work as a support studio. The game was previously announced as in development with iLLOGIKA and EP1T0ME back in 2021, although it hasn’t received any updates since then. The initial reveal just said that Saber would be publishing A Quiet Place video game that would feature an original story in the movie universe, and that it would be out in 2022.

Ahead of The Road Ahead‘s reveal, the website shows Saber and EP1T0ME’s logo, but not iLLOGIKA’s. The press release, however, does not list EP1ToME anywhere.

A Quiet Place, which came out in 2018, was a huge success for Paramount, grossing $188 million domestically on a $17 million budget, according to Box Office Mojo. The sequel, released in 2020, had a much larger $55 million budget and earned $136.4 million domestically (pretty good for a pandemic-era release).

If you can’t wait for a whole video game where you sneak around quietly, you can catch A Quiet Place: Day One, a prequel to the successful John Krasinski-directed franchise on June 28. There’s also a third main series entry that was originally set for release in 2025, but it’s since been delayed.

If you're a Ghost Recon fan, you've probably gotten used to one thing over the past few years: waiting for rumors to turn into announcements, waiting for leaks to be acknowledged, waiting for Ubisoft to say... well, anything at all about the future of one of its biggest tactical shooter franchises. Thankfully, that silence finally seems to be ending.

Ubisoft has confirmed that it will share Ghost Recon news on August 6, when the series celebrates its 25th anniversary. The announcement arrived shortly after fresh leaks began circulating online, prompting the company to post a brief message telling fans that more information is just around the corner.

The AI game-dev boom has a dark side: fewer jobs for the people starting out
Solo creators are thriving with tools like Claude Code and Copilot, but entry-level game roles are disappearing.

AI is making it easier than ever for a single person to build a game. That sounds like a win for creativity, and in many ways, it absolutely is. But there is a catch. As generative AI tools help solo developers and small studios do more with fewer people, the same shift is making life tougher for writers, artists, concept creators, and junior programmers trying to break into the gaming industry.
