The Dark Pictures Anthology: Little Hope is a 2020 video game developed by Supermassive Games and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment. It is the second game of the first season of The Dark Pictures Anthology. Little Hope serves as the sequel to the anthology's season premiere, Man of Medan. Will Poulter stars as the game's leading actor and plays the role of one of the protagonists, named Andrew. Set in the fictional eponymous town, located in Massachusetts, the game follows four college students chaperoned by their professor. After their bus crashes by the area, the group finds themselves trapped within Little Hope by an impenetrable fog. As they explore the deserted town, the characters are pursued by demons whose appearances are reminiscent of the ways in which the townspeople of Little Hope's colonial era died.
Little Hope contains many decision-making scenes that dictate how the plot will progress and how the characters will develop over time. With these choices, which players make on behalf of the characters, any of the ensemble cast's five playable protagonists can die permanently or survive the night. Quick time events determine whether a protagonist will live through the very end. To guide players in navigating the story, the game features a set of collectable items called "pictures" that give premonitions of what may happen later in the plot. The developer, Supermassive Games, decided to tackle the topic of witch trials for Little Hope's story and explore the reasons why mass paranoia around witchcraft happened in the first place.
The game was released for PlayStation 4, Windows, and Xbox One on 30 October 2020 to mixed reviews. On 27 September 2022, the game was released on PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S. A Nintendo Switch version was released on 5 October 2023. Another installment in the series, House of Ashes, was released in October 2021 and stars Ashley Tisdale.
