Xbox Series S/X PlayStation 5 PC
Action Adventure

Sinking City 2 is a survival horror action-adventure set in the flooded, 1920s ruins of Arkham, continuing developer Frogwares' dive into Lovecraftian terror. Players control protagonist Calvin as he confronts otherworldly threats in this sequel, which marks a deliberate shift toward pure survival horror compared to the original.

Pre-release coverage has emphasized the game's tonal intensity and mechanical refinements. Frogwares has showcased extended gameplay footage demonstrating combat encounters and exploration in the decaying city, while confirming the sequel will launch with New Game+ mode enabled from day one. The studio has also detailed a significant list of changes from the first game, alongside a free HDR patch at release. Achievement listings and regional release times have begun circulating as the August 2026 launch approaches.
