Because You Needed More Nightmares, Lucius III is Coming to Steam at the End of 2018
Indie dev studio Shiver games is continuing the creepy saga of tiny murderous child Lucius in Lucius III which will hit Steam at the end of the year. This is a direct sequel to Lucius and Lucius II, so if you haven't played those, you might want to pick them up and give 'em a shot before snagging the latest game in the series. Otherwise, you're showing up more than halfway through our titular anti-christ's saga.
Yes, you read that right. Lucius is a little boy born on June 6th, 1966 to the loving couple of the devil himself and a human woman. In the third installment of the series, Lucius returns to his childhood stomping grounds in Winter Hill. After escaping the burned out remains of his childhood home in Lucius II, our evil protagonist is taken to the psychiatric ward in St. Benedict's Hospital. As you might have guessed, things do not go well in the psych ward.
