ORIGINAL:
This week, a data appeared on the network indicating that a new Alone in the Dark would be revealed today (12) in a special broadcast by THQ Nordic. And before the event even happens, leaked some information of what we can find in the title.
The data in question appeared on the page of a store in Belgium, and involves some photos and the art that we will have on the cover of the game. In addition, there are reports that the theme of the game will be “psychological horror meets Southen Gothic (subgenre of Gothic fiction in American literature)”.

Check the description on the store’s website below:
“This love letter to the 90’s game will take you through a story that is both sinister and memorable through the eyes of two protagonists. Playing as Edward Carnby or Emily Hartwood, explore various environments, fight monsters, solve puzzles and discover the terrible truth about Decree’s mansion.
Deep in the southern United States during the 1920s, Emily Hartwood’s uncle disappears. Accompanied by private detective Edward Carnby, she sets out to find her relative at Decree’s mansion, a psychological hospital where something is happening.”
You will encounter strange patients, nightmare realms, dangerous monsters and find out about an evil conspiracy. In a mixture of reality, mystery and madness, the adventure that awaits you will make you risk some certainties. What will you trust, who to believe and what to do next?”, concludes the text.
Seems a website posted a bit early the thing I was teasing a few days ago, indeed Alone in the Dark 1 is being remade in the style of RE:2. Be announced properly later today. Southern Gothic Horror w/Lovecraft. Story by the guy who wrote SOMA & Amnesia: The Dark Descent. pic.twitter.com/IqpWK6JwkN

Just need to announce
After the disclosure of all this data, the AestheticGamer profile on Twitter seemed to confirm such data, noting that the game should indeed be announced this Friday. The message also says that the game will likely have a style very similar to that of Resident Evil 2 Remake, in addition to a plot written by the same author of the story of SOMA and Amnesia: The Dark Descent.
