The idea of synthesizing all of the moving pieces of the Evil Dead series into one cohesive package is one vicious, behemoth Deadite in itself. But on top of that, transcending the medium of film and television and adapting it into a gaming genre as volatile as asymmetrical multiplayer? One would naturally question how Saber […]
The post ‘Evil Dead: The Game’ Looks to Be Raising the Bar for Asymmetrical Horror [Hands-On Preview] appeared first on Bloody Disgusting!.
We pick up a proton pack and throw out a trap to catch a glimpse of IllFonic’s ‘Ghostbusters: Spirits Unleashed’ in our preview of the new multiplayer experience. In hindsight, it’s actually quite surprising we hadn’t seen an asymmetrical multiplayer Ghostbusters game before now. The format feels right for the license. IllFonic has spent the […]

In our Ghostwire: Tokyo preview, it seems Tango Gameworks is heading in an intriguing new direction. Does it translate to a good horror experience though? Ghostwire: Tokyo is a game about the lines between the living and the dead. It’s also a game steeped in Japanese mythology. More importantly, however, Ghostwire: Tokyo is the most […]

Spiral Circus’ monochrome aquatic horror game shows great promise in our ‘Silt’ preview impressions. I can’t remember the last game that enchanted me with its visual beauty whilst unnerving me with what it represented. Well, congratulations to developer Spiral Circus, because it has already achieved just that in a short demo for its upcoming aquatic […]

We got a Ghostwire: Tokyo preview, and came away impressed by the supernatural new game from Tango Gameworks. I have this strange fondness for seeing normally populated worlds in video games emptied of humanity. Ever played The Forest with enemies turned off? Wandered through some of the quieter ruins of the Seattle suburbs in The […]
The post [Preview] ‘Ghostwire: Tokyo’: Tango Gameworks’ Latest is Building on ‘The Evil Within 2’ in Supernatural Style appeared first on Bloody Disgusting!.
With so many co-op monster shooters arriving in recent times, The Anacrusis already has a job in standing out, but it’s already laying some impressive groundwork for the future as it begins life in Early Access. Will it end up being a Big Bang or a Black Hole? Unlike many of its genre pals, The […]
First-person Yokai-heavy horror game Ikai certainly likes to keep you busy from the off, but is it too much busywork? It certainly distracted me from a strong setup. Set in feudal Japan, Ikai concerns a young priestess named Naoko. She’s heard whispers of ancient evil creeping through the forests where she lives, but has dismissed […]
Asymmetrical-multiplayer survival horror (which is a mouthful that I’ll be referring to as AMSH from here on) could very well be entering its biggest year yet in 2022. Between the ongoing reign of Dead By Daylight (which will be implementing its Ringu chapter in the near future), Saber Interactive’s upcoming Evil Dead: The Game, and Gun Interactive’s recently announced Texas Chain Saw Massacre game, the roster of AMSH […]
In building upon previous mechanics and providing a more personal story with impactful player choice, Dying Light 2 Stay Human offers a grim world with much to explore. In having the chance to spend several hours playing the game, I have found that developer Techland has not only significantly improved upon what was laid out […]
It doesn’t take long for Trigger Happy Interactive’s Turbo Overkill to start showing off, and in fairness, it has every reason to do so. A throwback first-person shooter set in the future where its protagonist, the suitably 90s man/machine hybrid known as Johhny Turbo, zips up, down, and around its neon-drenched Paradise city like an […]
Shin Megami Tensei V is the latest entry in the Shin Megami Tensei franchise coming to Nintendo Switch on November 11. This series, while having a sizable fanbase, has been overshadowed by its spin-off franchise, Persona. The last fully original 3D game in the series was 2003’s Shin Megami Tensei III: Nocturne for the PS2, […]
The Dark Pictures Anthology: House of Ashes is a significant change of scenery from its predecessor, Little Hope. Departing from the haunting New England woods, you instead follow five soldiers who have, quite literally, fallen into ancient Sumerian ruins deep underground of Iraq during a skirmish of the Iraq War in 2003. Going into the […]
When Fallout 3 was announced, I was one of the many people who were hesitant about the change in perspective for the series. There was something about the look and feel of those old isometric games that captured the grimy, icky apocalypse they were going for that wasn’t quite as appealing when rendered in crisper […]
Done well, mowing down hordes of undead with friends has a good shot at replicating a high many have been chasing since Left 4 Dead 2. Still, to actually get something even remotely close to that magical concoction has proven to be elusive. In a way, the Back 4 Blood Open Beta (read our previous […]
If you’ve been following gaming over the past couple of decades, you’re probably aware of Duke Nukem Forever. Yes, Duke’s follow-up to the seminal Duke Nukem 3D went through several years of development, two developers, and several fans’ tolerance levels before finally being released to middling reviews in 2011. So, why are we talking about […]
