The Dark Pictures Anthology: The Devil in Me is a 2022 interactive drama and survival horror video game with slasher horror elements developed by Supermassive Games and published by Bandai Namco Entertainment. It is the fourth installment in The Dark Pictures Anthology, after Man of Medan (2019), Little Hope (2020), and House of Ashes (2021). It is also the final game in the anthology's first season. Continuing the series' premise, the game features a cast of five playable protagonists and a multilinear narrative influenced by player choices. Its decision-making scenes can significantly alter the trajectory of the plot and change the relationships between the main characters; some can lead to the permanent death of the protagonists.
Staple mechanics of The Dark Pictures Anthology, such as quick time events (QTEs) and "pictures", collectable items that allow players to see visions of possible future events, appear again in The Devil in Me. The game also introduces new features, including an inventory system for the characters, tool-based puzzles, and new movement capabilities, including running, jumping, and climbing. Jason Graves, a long-time collaborator with Supermassive Games, returned to compose the game's soundtrack, having created music for the earlier games in the series.
The Devil in Me takes inspiration from the myth of H. H. Holmes and his "Murder Castle". The plot follows five members of a documentary film crew who are invited to a replica of Holmes' hotel on an island in Michigan so that they can film an episode of their series. It's not long before they discover their lives are at risk due to traps placed throughout the hotel and they must escape the island before Granthem Du'Met kills them. Jessie Buckley was marketed as the game's leading actress, marking the fourth time Supermassive Games cast a high-profile actor to portray a character for the series.
The game was released for PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Windows, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X/S on 18 November 2022. Its sequel, Directive 8020, was announced without a release date and will be the first instalment of the series' second season. The Devil in Me garnered mixed reviews from critics.
