‘Daymare: 1998’ to be Released in Japan on PS4 in February
Despite Invader Studios not having announced a console release date in North America or Europe for their Resident Evil 2 tribute in Daymare: 1998, Japan players will be able to snag digital and physical copies of the game in the new year.
A listing on Rakuten has the game being released on February 20, 2020 in Japan. No word on an Xbox One release in the region, however.
The third-person survival horror game was first released for PC on September 17, and is still planned for release on both PlayStation 4 and Xbox One in the west.
Just in time for Steam Next Fest, Studio Laaya has pushed a new update for their upcoming psychological thriller, Foghorns Drown. In addition to some subtle graphical improvements, the new demo features more mechanics, more characters, and a longer story. You can also grab the demo on itch.io.
Foghorns Drown casts you as a ferryman, bringing passengers across a foggy lake to a town drenched in mystery and folklore. The old ferryman has disappeared, and a murder has been committed. Coincidentally, you recently experienced a dream where you wandered through the pines, and came upon the body of someone who was murdered. Who is the killer? Why did the old ferryman disappear? Solve the mystery, before it’s too late.
First and foremost, you must tend to your job. You’ll use physics-based interactions to open doors, drag objects, and operate the crank of the ferry to pull it along a rusty old chain. The foghorns have little patience, the ferry must move.
Along the way, the story progresses through environmental clues, dialogue with the townsfolk, and surreal visions. As you progress, the psychological toll begins to escalate as truth begins to blur, and the strange old tales begin to reveal themselves to you. Something in the water demands its toll.
Originally aiming for a June 30 release, the team has decided to push Foghorns Drown to July.
