A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead , an upcoming horror game from Saber and Stormind Games, includes a neat and creepy feature. If you have a microphone activated, the monsters in the game can hear you cough and scream in real life just like in the movies. The Quiet Place film franchise started in 2018 with A Quiet Place, a horror film about humans trying to survive after alien monsters invade Earth.
The creatures are incredibly fast and deadly, but can’t see or smell and rely exclusively on sound to hunt their prey, so survivors have to remain quiet or they’ll get killed by the aliens. And in the upcoming video game based on the movies, you the player will have to be quiet, too. Or else the digital monsters will hear you and attack.
On October 9, Saber Interactive released a new traile r for A Quiet Place: The Road Ahead and revealed an optional feature in the game: “Microphone Noise Detection.” Here’s how the publisher explained the feature via a press release. By activating your microphone, this optional feature lets the game’s deadly creatures detect every sound you make in real life, bringing the horror right into your room.
Get a glimpse of what it’s like when any noise can betray you with the game’s new “Survive in Silence” live-action trailer! So yeah, if you are playing the game with this feature turned on and your phone rings or you sneeze that might be enough noise to get the attention of a nasty alien monster, likely leading to your in-game characte.
