Nightmarish Horror Game ‘Slender: The Arrival’ Hits Wii U

If you are looking for some horrifying fun this Halloween, it appears that you might be in luck. Blue Isle Studios has announced that Slender: The Arrival is now available for the Wii U system in North America, and will be launching for Wii U in Europe next Thursday, October 29.

With the Wii U version, Slender: The Arrival gains greater – and scarier – immersion with the use of the Wii Remote, which serves as your in-game flashlight. By moving the Wii Remote, players can shine the weak light onto the dark, haunting world of Slender Man in a search for clues in this mystery.  It’s an experience that sounds like it will give the creeps to even the hardest-core horror veterans.

In case you haven’t heard of the Slender Man story, the main character is described by eye witnesses as a thin, unnaturally tall man dressed in a black suit with a blank, featureless face. Slender: The Arrival brings extended levels and a unique story to the world of Slender Man that continues to unfold the terrifying mythos. Players are enveloped in a world of sensory deprivation filled with haunting visions and audio cues that create a healthy dose of tension and paranoia.

Slender: The Arrival Storyline:
Lauren is in search of her friend Kate, who recently has become increasingly obsessed with the folklore of Slender Man. Was Kate’s disappearance the work of Slender Man?  Use Kate’s forgotten flashlight with the Wii Remote to explore abandoned houses, creepy mines and dark forests to unravel the mystery – all while being stalked by the menacing presence of Slender Man.
