Everybody's Gone to the Rapture out in August

The Chinese Room readies release.

Everybody's Gone to the Rapture comes out on 11th August.

The eye-catching PlayStation 4 exclusive is based on a post-apocalyptic premise: the world ended 31 years ago.

You investigate the last days of Yaughton Valley and uncover the traces of its vanished community. The idea is you discover fragments of events and memories to piece together the mystery of the apocalypse.

Everybody's Gone to the Rapture is made by The Chinese Room, developer of Dear Esther. The new trailer is below.
