Legendary horror game Amnesia: The Dark Descent is now open source. Players of Amnesia: The Dark Descent are already spoiled with thousands of mods, and the game becoming open source should pave the way for even more. Frictional Games, the makers of the Amnesia series, shared the news in a recent blog post. Amnesia: A Machine For Pigs is now also open source.

Frictional Games emphasizes that going open source does not mean that the games are free. Instead, the company refers to the move as being similar to "free speech," not "free beer." Both Amnesia titles are open source under the GPL3 license.
