Capcom Japan Looking For Testers For In-Development ‘Resident Evil’ Title
Let the speculation begin. Details are scant at this point, but according to Resident Evil fansite Biohaze, Capcom has sent out an e-mail to members of the Resident Evil Ambassador in Japan with an announcement that it is recruiting testers for an in-development title.
The chosen recruits would test the in-development title at an undisclosed location in Shinjuku, Tokyo on September 8 or 9. To be chosen, the person must be a member of the Resident Evil Ambassador Program, and have played Resident Evil games in the past.

Unearth an Ancient God in Cosmic Horror Game ‘The Old Flesh of Nuraga’; Demo Available Now [Trailer]
Fans of Studio Ortica’s previous work (they made Loan Shark and Birds Watching, in case you didn’t know) will be happy to see that the developer has revealed their latest title, The Old Flesh of Nuraga, which is slated to arrive on PC via Steam on August 7. Currently, you can enjoy the demo for the game during Steam Next Fest.
Drawing on the mythology and material culture of Nuragic Sardinia to construct its distinct flavor of cosmic horror, The Old Flesh of Nuraga is a brief first-person atmospheric horror title set on a dying desert island. When Cinera’s grandpa became too weak to keep pace, he was left to die. She stayed with him, since blood ties are stronger than thirst.
However, blood ties won’t feed you. While searching for food using an ancient bell, Cinera discovers that the two of them are standing on the lost holy palace of a forgotten god: the god that her grandpa used to worship. Now Cinera’s grandpa wants her to unearth ancient relics, convinced they will allow him to save everyone. But as you dig deeper, her grampa’s madness starts spreading like sand.
Not only that, but in your quest to unearth these relics, you soon summon something that probably should have stayed buried.
