‘Contagion’ Dev Teases New Horror Game, ‘Project Ageless’
Around this time every year, game developers from all over the world gather in San Francisco to chat about this amazing industry The event is especially popular for indie developers who use the event to network and spread the word about their projects, and while it’s not often used to reveal brand new games, sometimes it is.
Developer Monochrome recently confirmed they’ll be attending, partly so they can unveil their next project, a sci-fi horror game code-named Project Ageless, which they say is inspired by the “classics” and “today’s geniuses.” That could mean a lot of things, so it’s a good thing we won’t have to wait long to find out exactly what those inspirations are.
The studio’s last project was the co-op zombie survival game Contagion, which I called a gory and addictive in my review. You can watch me play some of it in the video below.
In related news, another free content update was recently announced for Contagion. It doesn’t have a release date, but when it arrives it’ll add four new characters, four weapons, two maps and a new wave survival mode called Flatline.
The discovery of life beyond Earth leads to paranoia and danger for a family in the new trailer for The Outer Threat.
The sci-fi thriller heads to Digital and VOD on July 10, 2026.
In The Outer Threat, “After making a groundbreaking extraterrestrial discovery, astrophysicists Daniel and Michelle are forced to flee from home with their family — pursued through the countryside by a relentless and anonymous assailant. As their flight unfolds, the line between cosmic revelation and human paranoia blurs, leading to a tense and emotional confrontation that challenges the boundaries of understanding, science, and survival.“
The film comes from writer-director William Woods and stars Constance Wu, Mark O’Brien, William Fichtner, Callista Crowe, Isaac Smelcer-Zhang, Oscar Hsu, and Murray Furrow.
Maddy Falle, Albert Shin, and Allison White produce. Executive producers include Rob McGillivray, Ben Stranahan, Tom Spriggs, John Hansen III, Patrick Vipond, Jared Blaichman, Jonah Blaichman, and Randall Okita.
The Outer Threat arrives on the heels of Steven Spielberg’s Disclosure Day, circling similar territory. The truth about the existence of aliens leads to danger in the trailer below.
