Obscure: Dark Aura, the Cancelled Survival Horror for Nintendo Ft. Colton West

What happened to Obscure: Dark Aura for Nintendo DS? Obscure was a short series of survival horror games created by French studio Hydravision Entertainment, with a first chapter published by DreamCatcher Interactive in 2004 for Playstation 2, Xbox and PC. The game soon gained a cult following of fans, thanks to its school settings, multiple characters to use, catchy soundtrack and a fun co-op mode. The main plot of the game was inspired by classic slasher horror movies and centered around a group of teenagers trying to survive against strange monsters. In 2008 Hydravision and Playlogic decided to port Obscure 2 to the PSP and Nintendo DS, but only the PSP version was released in 2009. The Nintendo DS port was quietly cancelled and the only info available was its planned title, Obscure: Dark Aura. Being impossible to manage a game similar to the Playstation 2 version on the Nintendo DS, many speculations about this lost game have been circulated online. Thanks to researches made in 2016 for an article published in the Unseen64 book, we can finally learn the truth about Obscure Dark Aura.
