In addition, anyone who wants to join in on the fun can head over to the game’s Steam page, hit the “Request Access” button, and you’re in!Ĭurrently in development for an Early Access release, The Human Show will feature two game modes upon its release: The Human Show and The Origin.


Originally set to conclude on July 10, the playtest for The Human Show has now been extended to July 16. Based on the feedback from players (and fans), not only has DreadXP extended the playtest, but they’ve opened it up for everyone to join! but given their recent success with Motive’s Dead Space remake, one would hope that EA could give the green light for another of its dormant properties in Alice.įormerly known as The Outsiders, DreadXP and developer TheClassifiedX’s The Human Show as it’s now called recently began a closed playtest. So far, EA has not responded to McGee’s announcement.

The main point of contention at this point is EA, which still owns the Alice license. In case you’re wondering, Virtuos Team has been co-dev on titles such as The Outer Worlds, Outriders, Dark Souls: Remastered, BioShock: The Collection and more.Ĭurrently, McGee states that the game requires $50 million USD for a development budget, not taking into account the marketing or additional licensing and miscellaneous costs to fully release and publish the game. McGee also announced that he’s secured a partnership with developer Virtuos Team, who have created a development budget, schedule and pitch outline for developing Alice: Asylum. Created as a “sales tool” by American McGee and a small team of artists, designers and writers, the idea behind this book is “to encourage official greenlighting of the development of a new AAA Alice 3 video game, by key stakeholders at Electronic Arts (EA).” “The culmination of our team’s efforts on the first pre-production phase of Alice: Asylum, (Alice’s potential third video game adventure) is now contained within the completed Alice: Asylum Design Bible,” says McGee in a new Patreon post. We’ve mentioned McGee’s efforts several times over the years, and he’s upped the push now with a new video announcing the launch of the game’s Design Bible ( which you can download for free), as well as potential news on a development partner. It’s pretty clear that American McGee (and fans) want a Alice: Asylum to be made.
