While a direct spin-off seems unlikely, the supposed title is perhaps more than a mere coincidence. For one, Until Dawn's slasher adventure fittingly opens with a song called " O' Death," drawing an explicit connection between the upcoming Dark Pictures entry and the 2015 hit. In terms of the new titles, there are a few things worthy of note. While many fans are hoping for a Dark Pictures game as immersive and terrifying as Until Dawn, it's not yet clear if any of the upcoming games will be able to reach its level. This contradicts widespread assumptions that the series has been underperforming, and seemingly secures even more horror anthology adventures for 2022 and beyond. The news suggests Bandai Namco has enough faith in The Dark Pictures Anthology to secure an extra title out of Supermassive Games. The publication notes every filing date fell on January 31, 2022, and featured the following logos: The titles themselves include The Dark Pictures: The Craven Man, The Dark Pictures Presents: O Death, The Dark Pictures: Directive 8020, The Dark Pictures: Intercession, and, finally, The Dark Pictures: Winterfold. Twitter user The_Marmolade spotted the listings on EUIPO - the agency responsible for European Union trademarks - and found that Supermassive filed trademarks for no less than five new games, with titles and graphic representations of logos attached (via Gemsatsu).

Supermassive Games still manages to carve out its own lane in the yearly release schedule, though, and it seems the studio has the next several years on lock, too.
However, based on critic reviews and player reception, none of the first three Dark Pictures Anthology entries have struck the same chord as the beloved PS4 exclusive. Each title in the anthology plays like Until Dawn, with a horror setting, branching narrative paths, and quick decision-making.
