Slender: The Arrival is the follow up to Slender: The Eight pages, first screenshots

Slender: The Eight Pages has delivered plenty of free scares already, but there's probably a market for those who'd like to be scared at a higher resolution. Slender: The Arrival with slake that thirst with a high fidelity update to its Unity predecessor. It's being made by Parsec Productions, who made The Eight Pages, in conjunction with Blue Isle Studios.

If you're looking for a prettier version of the slender experience that doesn't cost anything, and that can be played in co-op, keep an eye on the upcoming Slender: Source mod . If you're wondering what on earth all this slender business is but don't want to jump right in for fear of being scared into a coma, read Kim's Now Playing on the terrifying after effects of a night spent fleeing the Slenderman with all the lights out.
