‘Arkham Horror: Mother’s Embrace’ Announced For Consoles And PC For 2021
Board game fans (and Lovecraftian fans) will have something to look forward to next year, thanks to publisher Asmodee Digital and developer Luckyhammers. Arkham Horror: Mother’s Embrace, a digital game based on the Arkham Horror board game franchise, will launch in 2021 for PlayStation 4, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam.
The game was originally announced as a PC-only title in April 2018 under the name Mansions of Madness: Mother’s Embrace, and was planned to release in the first quarter of 2019.
Arkham Horror: Mother’s Embrace is an investigation game mixed with turn-based combat, set in the haunted worlds of H.P. Lovecraft’s Cthulhu mythos. Taking place in 1926, a professor of astronomy is found dead in her mansion and everything indicates that she has been the victim of murder. Choose from 12 investigators from the Arkham Horror games, each with a unique set of skills, and assemble your team to shed the light over her mysterious death.
As the investigators get closer to their goal, your squad will have to face curious science, living nightmares, and a sinister cult with plans to bring about the end of everything.
In addition to helping out with KARMA: The Dark World, Wired Productions has also announced that their upcoming gory action title Gori: Cuddly Carnage finally has a release date. The Angry Demon Studio-developed title will arrive on PC via Steam, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch on August 29. Digital pre-orders for the PlayStation versions include two days of early access on August 27.
“Gori: Cuddly Carnage is a throwback to the games I played in the late 90’s and 2000’s,” explains Leo Zullo, Managing Director of publisher Wired Productions. “It’s pure adrenaline, fun, outrageous and really a showcase of just what indie gaming is all about – a place for creativity, freedom and the ability to make the game you want to make.”
“It’s been an incredible journey bringing this absurd and action-packed world to life, and we couldn’t be happier to finally share it with players everywhere,” says John Kalderon of Angry Demon Studio. “We want to extend a heartfelt thank you to our amazing community and everyone who has been a part of this journey since 2020.”
Gori: Cuddly Carnage focuses on Cool-Toys Inc.. Fueled by insatiable demand, the toy company created Ultra Pets, the ultimate companions that never hunger, never require bathroom breaks and are impervious to the ravages of time. Little did anyone expect a mutation that would transform these perfect pets into twisted toys straight from your nightmares, hell-bent on wiping out humanity. What’s worse, the Adorable Army has kidnapped Professor Y, Gori’s creator, and the only human who showed him and his friends love.
It’s now up to Gori with his wise-cracking sentient hoverboard, F.R.A.N.K, and morose A.I companion, CH1-P, to slay the Adorable Army with explosive weaponry and devastating combos in an epic battle to prevent the Adorable Army from conquering the galaxy.
