2D Gothic Fighter ‘The Black Heart’ Arrives on Steam October 22nd
Fighting games, let alone horror-based ones, are a rarity on PC. That’s not stopping publisher Saibot Studios and horror director Andrés Borghi with their upcoming game, The Black Heart. The 2D gothic fighter will arrive on Steam Early Access later this week on October 22nd, and as you would expect, the title brings buckets of blood with it.
Described as being “in the tradition of Street Fighter or Mortal Kombat“, The Black Heart takes place in a world apart from ours, ruined by war and hatred. The king and creator of that world have been killed by a monster called Final, the King’s heart torn from his body, where he kept all his power. Six creatures, both from our world and this other world chase the monster and fight each other to obtain the heart. The last one standing will gain the power of the heart and become invincible.
According to the Steam page, Borghi has been working on this game for about seven years, working on everything including the graphics, programming, story, music and sound. The game was in fact released as freeware, but Borghi decided to revamp the game, complete with new illustrations by cartoonist Nahuel SB.

Come Face to Face With the Zombie Menace in the Story Trailer for ‘Zombie Army VR’ [Watch]
While there’s no definitive release date just yet, Rebellion is teasing fans with a new story trailer for the upcoming Zombie Army VR, which is expected to arrive later this year. The new trailer gives fans and prospective players a glimpse at the Zombie Army VR story campaign, which as you might have guessed, involves occult magic, waves of zombies, and plenty of headshots.
The game’s campaign takes place alongside the events of the Zombie Army series, and sees you take to the field as one of the Deadhunters, an elite squad that is hunting down zombie war criminals. You must fight your way through undead hordes near the bombed-out city of Nuremberg to help Captain Hermann Wolff, the Deadhunter’s legendary leader, find his scattered family and fight to free Europe from the zombie apocalypse.
As you navigate the full-length story campaign either alone or with an ally, you’ll have access to an arsenal of authentic World War II weaponry, including sniper rifles, submachine guns, pistols and more. As one would expect, VR brings a new level of immersion to the action of the Zombie Army series, which will require you to “get to grips” with using your hands to aim your rifle, dual-wield your side arm with a submachine gun, master reloading drills, and tossing grenades.
Zombie Army VR is currently in development for the PlayStation VR2, Meta Quest 2, 3, Pro, Oculus Rift and PC headsets via Steam.
