Bloober Team is keeping things interesting with that mysterious countdown website they had launched at the beginning of last month. The website has undergone a bit of a facelift, now featuring a rose logo and an ominous message to go along with the countdown timer.
The rose logo, which if you move your mouse over it, will change to a dripping version that appears to be bleeding (which seems fitting, given the countdown expires just after Valentine’s Day on February 15 at 12:00 a.m. ET). There’s also a cryptic phrase just below the logo, “Some things never leave the walls. They only learn to wait.” To add even more confusion, hitting the “Play” button starts a broken recording of someone reciting the William Blake poem, “The Sick Rose”.
“Thou art sick… invisible flies in the night… Howling storm has found out thy bed of crimson joy… Dark secret thy life destroy.”
Obviously, these new additions have some on the internet now speculating that one of the projects that Bloober Team is working on (in addition to the remake of the original Silent Hill) is Punchline’s 2006 PlayStation 2 psychological horror title, Rule of Rose. However, a remake of Rule of Rose doesn’t appear to be the case, despite the rose commonality. This still leaves the option open to it being a potential new entry in the Layers of Fear series, or a brand new IP altogether.
Once again, we’ll have to see just what Bloober Team is cooking on February 15th.
