Supermassive Games teases the next Dark Pictures installment via a secret teaser hidden in Directive 8020, hinting at a paranormal entry potentially titled The Craven Man with a Ring-like vibe; blurred flashes of years 1988, 2019, 2028, and 2029 suggest multiple settings, while official confirmation remains pending and Directive 8020 itself drew mixed PS5 reviews.
Early reviews for Directive 8020 on Xbox praise its space setting, improved visuals, stealth elements, and stronger storytelling, while critics note pacing and some missed opportunities. With a Metacritic of 72 and OpenCritic 76 at the time of writing, the game launches for Xbox Series X|S on May 12 and is widely viewed as the best entry yet in The Dark Pictures, though still polarizing among fans.
