Urban Legend Hunters 2: Double mixes live-action with virtual worlds, coming soon

by Mia Jan 16,2025

Playism's upcoming release, Urban Legend Hunters 2: Double, offers a unique blend of FMV and augmented reality gameplay. Players step into the shoes of an outsider investigating the disappearance of a YouTuber specializing in urban legends.

The game features a cast of characters—Rain, Shou, and Tangtang—who claim to be part of the missing YouTuber's crew. The mystery centers around the legend of the double, or doppelganger, a being that replaces its counterpart unnoticed.

Urban Legend Hunters 2: Double innovatively combines FMV sequences with AR investigation. Players use their phone's camera to explore 3D environments, with the FMV footage seamlessly overlaid onto the real-world view. This unusual approach is both quirky and imaginative.

While the game's concept is undeniably intriguing, expectations for a complex psychological thriller might need adjusting. However, the inherent cheesiness often associated with FMV horror could be a significant part of its charm. Although a precise release date (beyond "this winter") remains elusive, this title is definitely one to keep an eye on.
