What The Hell Happened To P.T.?

A little over eight years ago, Gamescom was in full swing. It attracted over 335,000 attendees from 88 countries and featured a range of interesting games, from the unique Superhot to some future ones, including Bloodborne. Amid it all, however, was the buzz surrounding a unique little thing called P.T.

Developed by the unknown 7780s Studio, it actually went live on the PlayStation Store right before Gamescom on August 12th 2014. P.T. was short for “playable teaser” and greeted players with a seemingly innocuous title screen set in a mysterious forest. The “game” itself, however, took place in a strange hallway that continuously repeated itself, looping several times. It soon became apparent, however, that each loop presented something new, slowly unraveling in unique and horrifying ways.
