Developer Ice-pick Lodge has released new screenshots of the remake of Pathologic. The psychological horror adventure survival role-playing video game was first released in 2005.

The game is about three characters who are mostly known by their nicknames: two men, Bachelor and Haruspex, and a girl nicknamed Devotress. Each of them tries to uncover the source of a strange lethal sickness known as the "sand plague" that has befallen a small town.

The game takes place in a perpetual world over a time frame of 12 in-game days. Throughout each day, the player receives quests from NPCs, however, the game continues regardless of whether they are completed or not. At exactly midnight of each day, the incomplete quests are erased from the player's notebook.

Quests are divided into main missions, which decide if a major character will die, and side quests, which earn money and items. Completing main quests is essential to discovering the secrets of the town, as characters can fall ill from the plague early in the game who would otherwise reveal information later in the game.

In 2015 the developer also released an HD version of the game. That version introduced an updated engine, higher resolution textures and support for the English language.

The remake of the game is being built in the Unity engine and will be released later this year for PC, Xbox One and Playstation 4.
