The Casting of Frank Stone Introduces Several Unique Features to Supermassive Games

As a seasoned gamer with over two decades under my belt, I can confidently say that the gaming landscape has never been more intriguing than it is today. The upcoming release of “The Casting of Frank Stone” is an exciting prospect for me, being a die-hard fan of both “Dead by Daylight” and Supermassive Games.


In September, the universe of “Dead by Daylight” is expanding with the arrival of a spin-off titled “The Casting of Frank Stone“, developed by Supermassive Games. This upcoming game aims to offer a unique experience for fans of “Dead by Daylight” as it merges the chilling, asymmetrical multiplayer horror survival aspect created by Behaviour Interactive with the captivating storytelling skills of Supermassive. This fusion will delve deeper into the franchise’s grim backstory, providing a darker and more complex perspective on its intricate lore. Moreover, “The Casting of Frank Stone” introduces new gameplay mechanics that haven’t been featured in any previous Supermassive Games releases.

In the Xbox Gamescom Broadcast today, a fresh trailer unveiled exciting new aspects for the standalone version of the game from Supermassive. Features like the Cutting Room Floor, local multiplayer on the couch, and more are included, offering gamers a sneak peek into what they can anticipate in the upcoming title.

The new-to-Supermassive Games features include:

Cutting Room Floor

1. Take control as director and re-evaluate crucial story choices, search for hidden collectibles, or replay your favorite scenes without starting anew. Access extra content known as The Cutting Room Floor by buying the Deluxe Edition or finishing The Casting of Frank Stone for the first time.

Twitch Integration

Participants and spectators can jointly enjoy “The Casting of Frank Stone” through an integrated experience. By utilizing a Twitch Integration function, viewers will be able to influence each decision within the game by casting their votes. Streamers, on the other hand, will possess a restricted number of vetoes, which they can use to overturn a choice if they feel it contradicts the audience’s preference.

Plunderer’s Instinct

The “Plunderer’s Instinct,” similar to a perk in the game “Dead by Daylight,” illuminates the location of any overlooked Trinket Chests. By just pressing a button, the vicinity of all nearby Trinket Chests will be made visible to you. During your initial playthrough, this feature can be accessed by pre-ordering the game, or it can be unlocked upon completion.

8 MM Camera Feature

In essence, a filmmaker couldn’t exist without their camera. The characters in this case will encounter an unseen entity, and for those brave enough, an 8 MM camera lens will serve as their tool to scrutinize the spectral stalker that follows them.

Couch Co-Op

Enjoy a shared gaming experience with Couch Co-op, designed for up to four friends to play The Casting of Frank Stone simultaneously in the same space. Take turns controlling characters as the viewpoint shifts during gameplay. The latest additions to Supermassive’s offerings are:
