Lovecraftian ‘Lust From Beyond’ Receiving Second Standalone Prequel
Well, it’s another Lust From Beyond article, so you know what to expect. Well, sadly for some, there’s no weird trailer filled with NSFW stuff this time, but what is here is news that the game will have a standalone prequel in the form of Lust From Beyond: Scarlet! This is on top of the demo that was released back in July that also functioned as a prologue.
Scarlet (which you can wishlist here on Steam) follows a man named Alan, whose sexual drive is driving him insane. To deal with his issues, Alan meets with a psychiatrist. During the session, Alan talks about a strange date with a woman in an abandoned theatre.
You can guess where this is going.
Unlike the Prologue demo, Scarlet is meant to “present topics and mechanics” such as “survival, gore and sexual elements”. Moreover, the game will introduce a new faction to the game’s world in the form of the Scarlet Lodge. Of course, the Steam listing makes mention of “interactive sex”, so you can probably guess who this is aimed towards.
Luckily, Scarlet won’t have any spoilers in regards to the main game. So, if you’d prefer to not get your hands dirty, then you can wait for Lust From Beyond, which is expected to be released September 24 on Steam. Meanwhile, Lust From Beyond: Scarlet has a release date of “Soon”.

Developer Maboroshi Artworks and Entalto Publishing have nailed down a December 3 release for SOMBRAS: negative frames, which will launch for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, the Nintendo Switch 2, and PC via Steam. Physical media fans will also be getting in on the fun, as the game will also be receiving a physical release with the Special Frame Edition.
The Special Frame Edition includes the game on disc, as well as a reversible cover, the game’s artbook, and a download code for the game’s soundtrack, wallpapers, and a digital version of the artbook.
SOMBRAS: negative frames follows Shiomi Alterio, a Japanese-Spanish photography student who lives with her father in a Japanese town after her parents’ recent divorce. One night, Shiomi is engulfed by a dark dimension made of familiar streets, hungry shadows, and a cast of girls that look just like her. Shiomi must navigate these shadow-drenched streets, using her camera to capture unusual sights, and develop film rolls to upgrade equipment.
Along the way, she can befriend alternate versions of herself, collect occult trinkets, and unlock the strange doors blocking your path forward. However, she must also confront her repressed terrors in an emotional exploration of identity, youth, and dysfunctional family systems.
