Hudson Releases Calling Dev Diary

Hudson has released a new developer diary for their upcoming title, Calling.  Chief Director Kazufumi Shimizu and Concept Creator and Design Director Takeshi Inomata discuss the concept behind the game and the “spookification” of everyday objects and situations.

Launching on March 9, Calling revolves around four characters and their fight for survival after a visit to the “Black Page.”  In classic J-Horror style, players will experience the gripping story of suspense from the different characters’ perspectives.  Someone or something is drawing the living into the Mnemonic Abyss for a reason, and it is up to the player to discover the truth.  Players will use various equipment including flash lights, phones, and other items to navigate and escape the Calling.  Throughout the game players will visit various parts of the Mnemonic Abyss.  Memories of houses, schools, hospitals and more bring players closer to either an escape or an untimely death.  Players will solve puzzles, search and interact with objects, and ultimately try to avoid the inhabitance of this alternative existence.
