‘S.O.N’ Devs Explain Delay, Reveal Changed Content
Unfortunately, as those who have been following the game, RedG Studios’ PS4 exclusive psychological horror game S.O.N ended up getting bumped from it’s original December 11th launch date. The game, which is now on track for Q1 2019, has sadly had to make a few changes in order to make their release window, and via RedG Studio’s Twitter, they have detailed those changes.
For starters, the vampires that were shown in the first trailer have gotten the axe, due to them crashing the game. In their stead, the devs have given us a mysterious female figure in Carrie.
OK.
Here is what did not make the final cut for S.O.N:
First, Mr.Vamp.
The Vampires shown in the very first trailer, caused game failures and crashes on the engine too much to be apart of the game. So to replace him we have introduced Carrie 👹

For the beautiful outdoor forest scenes, due to “hardware limitations and time restraints”, the game now takes place during the night. It still looks amazing, but I can’t help but feel like the tone has shifted (but that’s just me).

The forest is no longer in the daytime but instead in the night time.
This was a struggle for us. Due to hardware limitations and time restraints the daytime forest was replaced with a dark, much more intense forest. Same layout though.

In the final trailer for the game, the player was shown walking by four statues. These statues have now been removed, and have been replaced with more areas that make more sense, story-wise.

In the final trailer you noticed the player walking around outside in what seemed to be an area with 4 statues and the words your going to die” are said.
We have cut that and replaced it with more places to understand the story. See one of them in this new screenshot below. pic.twitter.com/rVciDDxWZh

Lastly, the mutilated figure found in a few of the trailers for the game has not been cut. Rather, he now has “friends”.
As for this guy. You may have spotted him a few times throughout the trailers.
He is is still apart of the game, IN FACT he has friends. Because why not?👹 pic.twitter.com/Urmf2QW36s

RedG Studios have also taken the opportunity to add “new sections to the caves” during this delay, as well as add new features “and much more.” No word on the exact release date, but here’s hoping that the delay was all for naught.

‘Alien Hunt’ – It’s an ‘Alien’ and ‘Predator’ Mockbuster Rolled into One! [Trailer]
While you wait for Alien: Romulus, the folks over at Devilworks have cooked up their own slice of “mockbuster” fun with Alien Hunt, and we’re debuting the trailer here on BD this morning.
This brand-new sci-fi horror from director Aaron Mirtes (The Bigfoot Trap, Painted in Blood) is set for its US premiere on May 14, and you can find it on digital thanks to Devilworks.
You can exclusively watch the official trailer for Alien Hunt below, which looks to combine elements of Alien and Predator. This particular “mockbuster” has very little interest in hiding its inspirations, with the alien designs plucked straight out of H.R. Giger’s beautiful brain. Hey, if you’re going to pull from other movies, might as well take from the all-time greats!
In Alien Hunt, “On a hunting trip in the wilderness, a group of siblings discovers an abandoned military outpost on their land, but is it what it seems?
“Their trip takes a sinister turn when they find themselves facing off against a relentless army of extra-terrestrial beings. Suddenly, the hunters become the hunted.
“The formidable squad of alien soldiers will stop at nothing to wipe out the enemy and in an all-out, brutal battle for survival, it’s kill or be killed in Alien Hunt.”
Barron Boedecker (Escape Pod, The Bigfoot Trap), Brent Bentley (The Perfect In-Laws, Haunt Season), Deiondre Teagle (The Visitor, Painted in Blood, Death Ranch), Chelsey Fuller (The Bigfoot Trap, The Silent Natural), Jesse Santoyo (A Nashville Country Christmas, Potter’s Ground), and Adam Pietripaoli (The Bigfoot Trap, The OctoGames) star.
