The creators of multiple horror-laden titles, such as\u00a0<strong><i>SOMA<\/i><\/strong>, <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/indie-games-long-time-play-details\/\">Frictional Games is an independent studio<\/a> based in Sweden.\u00a0The studio is well-known and beloved for its ability to strike fear into those who play its titles.<\/p>\n<p>The studio notably doubted itself after the commercial release and success of\u00a0<em>Amnesia: The Dark Descent<\/em>. They enlisted the help of development studio The Chinese Room to develop\u00a0<em>Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs,<\/em>\u00a0which struggled to achieve the same level of abject horror from the original title. Since\u00a0<em>Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs<\/em>\u00a0struggled critically, <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/tag\/frictional-games\/\">Frictional Games<\/a> placed\u00a0itself back in the driver&#8217;s seat for\u00a0<em>SOMA\u00a0<\/em>and\u00a0<em>Amnesia: Rebirth<\/em>.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"related-single\"><strong>RELATED:\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/best-ps4-xbox-one-horror-games-soma\/\">Best PS4 And Xbox One Horror Games Day 16: Soma<\/a><\/strong><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Today, Frictional Games announced that\u00a0<em>SOMA<\/em>\u00a0has officially sold a million copies solely on PC; not including sales on the PlayStation 4 and Xbox One. The studio accredits the long tail of its titles, inferring to the shelf-life of Frictional Games titles lasting well beyond average.\u00a0<em>SOMA<\/em>\u00a0was originally released in 2015, plunging gamers into the <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/horror-games-at-sea-ranked\/\">depths of the Atlantic Ocean<\/a> in a derelict science vessel.\u00a0Machines have begun to believe that they are humans, food is scarce, and danger threatens at every dark corner of the facility.<\/p>\n<p><iframe loading=\"lazy\" width=\"320\" height=\"320\" frameborder=\"0\" src=\"https:\/\/twitter.com\/frictionalgames\/status\/1371776736036319235\" frameborder=\"0\"><\/iframe><\/p>\n<p>Yet the horror of the title is merely a surface-level offering of the title that Frictional Games offers up. Beyond the levels of terror, <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/soma-review\/\"><em>SOMA<\/em> holds a\u00a0narrative<\/a> that encourages gamers to understand precisely what life and consciousness are. The plot offers the\u00a0oft-forgotten &#8220;why&#8221; of a horror title, encouraging players to plumb beyond whatever terror lies ahead to\u00a0experience the rest of the title. This is a notion quickly forgotten in many horror experiences, where continuation revolves around offering more scares,\u00a0with a\u00a0tepid narrative offering little more than the &#8220;how&#8221; of a story.<\/p>\n<p>The crafting of narratives is something that Frictional Games has consistently completed with gusto,\u00a0from the in-house development of the\u00a0<em>Amnesia<\/em>\u00a0franchise to\u00a0<em>SOMA<\/em>, and something that is expected to continue from the studio. Despite\u00a0<em>SOMA<\/em>\u00a0reaching one million sales on PC alone, the more recent\u00a0<a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/amnesia-rebirth-hidden-secrets-areas\/\"><em>Amnesia: Rebirth<\/em><\/a>\u00a0is noted as not yet profitable for the studio. The most recent title from Frictional Games sold 100,000 copies in the first five months. Still, the immersive horror experience will likely have a long tail.<\/p>\n<p>Frictional Games closes the announcement by stating that two additional titles are under works at the Swedish studio. Whether it is a new IP entirely, or a stemming of the popular\u00a0<em>SOMA<\/em>, horror fans have plenty top look forward to in the future.<\/p>\n<p><strong><em>SOMA<\/em><\/strong>\u00a0is out now for PC, PS4, and Xbox One.<\/p>\n<p><span class=\"next-single\">MORE: <a href=\"https:\/\/gamerant.com\/amnesia-rebirth-horror-game-design-ps5-xbox-series-x-interview\/\">Amnesia: Rebirth Devs Talk Horror Game Design<\/a><\/span><\/p>\n<p>Source: <a href=\"https:\/\/www.destructoid.com\/stories\/soma-sold-a-million-copies-on-pc-and-it-deserves-every-last-sale-622967.phtml\"  rel=\"noopener noreferrer\">Destructoid<\/a><\/p>\n\n<p class=\"syndicated-attribution\"><figure class= \\\"wp-block-image alignnone \\\"><img src= \\\"http:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/test\/wordpress\/wp-content\/uploads\/2016\/05\/logo2-2.png\\\" alt=\\\"IT\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2 java\u88dc\u7fd2 \u70ba\u5927\u5bb6\u914d\u5c0d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2,IT freelance, \u79c1\u4eba\u8001\u5e2b, PHP\u88dc\u7fd2,CSS\u88dc\u7fd2,XML,Java\u88dc\u7fd2,MySQL\u88dc\u7fd2,graphic design\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e2d\u5c0f\u5b78ICT\u88dc\u7fd2,\u4e00\u5c0d\u4e00\u79c1\u4eba\u88dc\u7fd2\u548cFreelance\u81ea\u7531\u5de5\u4f5c\u914d\u5c0d\u3002\\\"\/><figcaption>\u7acb\u523b\u8a3b\u518a\u53ca\u5831\u540d\u96fb\u8166\u88dc\u7fd2\u8ab2\u7a0b\u5427!<\/figcaption><\/figure>\r\n<\/br>Find A Teacher Form:\r\n<\/br>https:\/\/docs.google.com\/forms\/d\/1vREBnX5n262umf4wU5U2pyTwvk9O-JrAgblA-wH9GFQ\/viewform?edit_requested=true#responses\r\n<\/br><\/br>Email:\r\n<\/br>public1989two@gmail.com<br><br><br><br><br><br><br>\r\n<a href=www.itsec.hk style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itsec.hk<\/a><br>\r\n<a href=\\\"www.itsec.vip\\\" style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itsec.vip<\/a><br>\r\n<a href=\\\"www.itseceu.uk\\\" style=color:#FFFFFF;>www.itseceu.uk<\/a><br><\/p>","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<div class=\"mh-excerpt\"><p>Frictional Games shows itself to be a master in horror, punctuating its pedigree with long-tailed titles like SOMA that consistently perform.<\/p>\n<\/div>","protected":false},"author":1347,"featured_media":0,"comment_status":"open","ping_status":"closed","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"slim_seo":{"title":"Horror Game SOMA Has Sold an Impressive Number of Copies - ITTeacherITFreelance.hk","description":"Frictional Games shows itself to be a master in horror, punctuating its pedigree with long-tailed titles like SOMA that consistently perform."},"footnotes":""},"categories":[607],"tags":[],"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/217324"}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/1347"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=217324"}],"version-history":[{"count":1,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/217324\/revisions"}],"predecessor-version":[{"id":217325,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/217324\/revisions\/217325"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=217324"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=217324"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/itteacheritfreelance.hk\/wordpress\/index.php\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=217324"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
