[Trailer] ‘P.T.’-Inspired Psychological Horror Title ‘Evil Inside’ Haunts PS5 and Steam Later This Month

Published

on

While P.T. is gone, it’s certainly not forgotten. In addition to the handful of fan remakes, we’ve also had a few games taking inspiration from the cancelled Kojima project. Among them is Spanish indie developer JanduSoft S.L.’s Evil Inside, which will be headed to the PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and PC via Steam later this month.

You play as Mark, who after the death of his mother and the arrest of his father (for causing said death), decides to contact her through a occult means. Unfortunately, things go south, and Mark is now being tormented inside the house while trying to work to banish whatever it is that’s causing all of this.

As you might guess from the screenshots and trailer, Evil Inside takes the same route at P.T.: A first-person psychological horror game where you wander around a seemingly empty house that just so happens to have some spooky happenings. The game appears to take the “less is more” approach with regards to the atmosphere, having creepy things like lights flickering and mysterious noises as you explore the house. Things eventually get turned up, but you won’t know when.

Evil Inside arrives on March 25th, but in the meantime, you’ve got the trailer to keep you company.

‘Toxic Crusaders’ – Retroware’s Side-Scrolling Beat-‘Em-Up Coming Fall 2024

Toxic Crusaders video game

Retroware surprised everyone last year with the announcement that they’re working on a throwback beat-’em-up based on the Toxic Crusaders cartoon. Grab your mop and get ready: the side-scrolling beat ’em up game is heading our way later this year.

Toxic Crusaders is now available to preorder on Steam, with the game set for Fall 2024 release. Exact date TBA.

Developer and publisher Retroware has teamed up with Troma Entertainment to bring the characters from the 1991 cartoon “Toxic Crusaders” back, for an all-new, all-action beat ’em up for one to four players.

In the game, “When the evil Dr. Killemoff attacks, only one team of hideously deformed creatures of superhuman size and strength stands between him and his plans for global pollution: the Toxic Crusaders, Earth’s last, greatest and ugliest hope for survival! Battle across seven disgusting levels rendered in vibrant pixel art as you defend Tromaville from hordes of Radiation Rangers, mutated thugs and zombie chickens. The odds might be stacked against you but with awesome powers, a winning personality, and up to four-players on your side, the Smogulan Empire’s days are numbered!

“Choose from seven playable characters, including Toxie, No-Zone, Junkyard, Major Disaster, and Headbanger – plus, for the first time, play as Toxie’s musically “gifted” girlfriend Yvonne, and the mother of all mothers, Mrs. Junko, Toxie’s mom!”

Considering this is set in Tromaville, it’s a safe bet that we’ll see more Troma characters beyond the Crusaders here.  Toxic Crusaders will also feature fully voice-acted motion comic cutscenes, featuring voice acting by TeamFourStar, industry veterans, and of course, Troma actors.

Check out the gameplay demo below for a closer look at the Toxic Crusaders in action.

Toxic Crusaders is coming soon to Xbox Series X + S, Playstation 4 + 5, Steam, Nintendo Switch, and the Epic Games Store. But you can wishlist on Steam in the meantime.
