Throwback Action Game ‘Demons Ate My Neighbours!’ Announced For PC And Switch
If you’re of an age, you probably remember Zombies Ate My Neighbours, the classic run and gun from LucasArts and Konami. While it technically received a sequel/spin-off in Ghoul Patrol, that wasn’t as well-received. Luckily, the folks at Tuned-Out Games are fans, as they’ve announced a spiritual sequel in Demons Ate My Neighbors!, a twin-stick co-op action game coming to Switch and PC via Steam on September 1st of this year.
Much like ZAMN, Demons Ate My Neighbours! utilizes cheesy horror motifs, and combines them with top-down action for one or two players. Unlike its inspiration, Demons has stackable power-ups and utilizes the aforementioned twin-stick control scheme. You’ll also have to track down and save people before they’re eaten.
The story goes that it’s a day in July back in the year 1991. Things are of the mundane sort for the sleepy suburbs of Fairweather Valley. That’s until a cursed VHS unleashes untold horrors upon the neighborhood, turns the residents evil, and generally makes April & Joey’s summer a total bummer. It’s up to them to exorcise their neighbors from Hell, fight their way back to the haunted High School and rewind their summer to save the world!

Horror Action-Adventure Title ‘EONA’ Appearing at Gamescom 2026; New Gameplay Trailer Released [Watch]
With gamescom 2026 right around the corner, developer/publisher SUPER AC has revealed that their upcoming horror adventure game EONA will be making an appearance at the show, which takes place from August 26-30. In addition, the team has revealed a new gameplay trailer, as well as announcing that the game will launch “just a few weeks” after gamescom.
Those attending gamescom will be able to play the final version of EONA at the SUPER AC booth, located in Hall 10.1, Booth A043. If you’re not able to attend, you can always check out the demo for the game on Steam.
EONA centres around the eponymous girl, who after a failed spell, has her soul split into two, with one half residing in a mysterious puppet. Eona must enter the castle of the evil fairy Mélusine and recover an artifact that is the only hope of saving her mother. But the path through the castle comes at a cost. To achieve her goal, Eona must uncover the castle’s secrets… and ultimately confront Mélusine herself.
Eona wields the Puppeteer’s Cross, a stolen artifact that allows her to manipulate the souls of the castle’s servants. By altering their behavior, redirecting their patrol routes, and disrupting the castle’s order, she can turn its own inhabitants against it. She can also swap between her human body and her puppet form, with each form granting unique abilities that are essential for delving deeper into the castle, reaching inaccessible areas, and uncovering its hidden secrets.
Blending stealth, exploration, puzzle-solving and soul manipulation, you’ll use Eona’s supernatural abilities to overcome obstacles—but never lose sight of your own body, which is completely vulnerable when using her puppet form.
In addition to Steam, EONA will also be launching on the Epic Games Store.
