As a seasoned gamer who grew up playing on the original PlayStation, I must say, this latest leak about Alone in the Dark 2 coming to PS5 and PS4 is music to my ears! Back in the day, I remember huddling around the TV with friends, terrified yet thrilled by the spine-tingling horror of that game.


It appears that a recent leak suggests the next PlayStation 1 title will shortly be available on both PS5 and PS4. In the past, revisiting PS1 games was challenging due to many being stuck on older PlayStation systems. However, Sony has been working diligently to rectify this issue in recent years by porting over multiple PS1 games such as Twisted Metal, Ape Escape, Syphon Filter, and The Legend of Dragoon. It seems that this trend will continue soon with a horror-themed PS1 game originally released on the console nearly 30 years ago.

According to PS Deals, a site that monitors updates on the PlayStation Store, the game “Alone in the Dark 2” has been listed for both the PS5 and PS4. Originally released in 1996, “Alone in the Dark 2” was the first game in the classic horror series to appear on PlayStation consoles. It appears that Sony is planning to reintroduce “Alone in the Dark 2” alongside “Alone in the Dark: The New Nightmare,” which was already made available for both PS5 and PS4 earlier in 2024.

Currently, it’s unclear when “Alone in the Dark 2” will transition to PS5 and PS4. While PS Deals has listed its release date as November 7th, this date appears to be incorrect. Instead, considering Sony’s pattern of releasing new PS1 games on PS5 and PS4 on the third Tuesday of each month following a refresh of the PS Plus Game Catalog, it’s possible that if “Alone in the Dark 2” is coming to PlayStation consoles this month, it may arrive on November 19th. However, since this information seems legitimate, there’s no reason to doubt that it will eventually be released.

Apart from “Alone in the Dark 2”, another PlayStation game originally released on PS1 has been announced by Sony to make its way onto both PS5 and PS4. This classic game is “Blood Omen: Legacy of Kain”, which first appeared on PS1 back in 1996. During the September’s PlayStation State of Play, it was confirmed that “Blood Omen” would be playable on PS5 and PS4, but Sony did not specify a release date for the title. Considering that “Legacy of Kain: Soul Reaver 1 & 2 Remastered” is set to debut in early December, it’s likely that “Blood Omen” will follow suit in November, potentially ahead of the remastered bundle’s launch.

What are your thoughts on the idea of transferring the most recent PlayStation 1 game to both PS5 and PS4, and which other classic PS1 games would you prefer to see adapted for modern hardware in the future? Don’t forget to share your opinions with me on X at @MooreMan12.
