Sound-Centric ‘Stifled’ Finally Heads to PC July 10th

Published

You might remember a little VR game called Stifled. Initially, publisher Gattai Games had planned for a PC release, but instead focused on a PSVR release, instead. However, Gattai Games has finally announced that Stifled will be released on Steam July 10th, with support for HTC Vive and Oculus Rift. VR support is completely optional, however.

For a refresher, Stifled has you trudging around a world devoid of light. The only way to see anything was to use the microphone on your headset, throwing in-game objects, or by pressing a dedicated sound button. Sounds pretty straighforward, until you realize that creatures out for your blood start to appear, and are attracted to the sound.

You can hit up the game’s Steam page for more info.

Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.

The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.

Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.

There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…

The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
