Stylized Folklore-Inspired Horror Game ‘Mundaun’ Arrives This March For PC And Consoles

Published

on

Those who have been waiting to finally get their hands on Hidden Fields’ Mundaun will be able to do so later this Spring when the title releases on Steam on March 16th. To celebrate, Hidden Fields and publisher MWM Interactive have released the first episode in a bi-weekly series of behind-the-scenes videos showcasing the developer’s creative development process, and the folklore and real life inspirations behind the game.

“It’s exciting to finally have a release date and share the experience of Mundaun with the passionate community that has been following the game over the past several years,” said Hidden Fields founder and developer Michel Ziegler. “The Alps hold a special importance to me and everything from the game’s story to the hand-pencilled characters and environments celebrate the remarkable culture of the Swiss region of Grisons. I’m glad to have worked with MWMi to bring this project to the finish line and look forward to players uncovering Mundaun’s secrets.” 

As an extra bonus, Ziegler will be hosting a special Q&A on Wednesday, January 13 beginning at 10:00AM PT / 1:00PM ET on the developer’s Discord. And, as an extra extra bonus (or just a further one, I don’t know), we’ll be having an interview with Ziegler regarding Mundaun‘s development in the very near future.

Mundaun will be available on March 16 on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series, Xbox One, Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam (where you can now wishlist the game) and the Epic Game Store.

‘Dying Light 2’ Receives New Difficulty Mode and More With “Nightmare Mode” Update [Trailer]

Published

on

Not to be outdone by Dead Island 2‘s recent expansion, Techland has announced that Dying Light 2 is getting an update of it’s own with the much-requested Nightmare Mode, which adds “the hardest and most immersive difficulty yet” to the game, along with an array of additional elements.

Nightmare Mode for Dying Light 2 forces players to rely on tactics and strategic management of resources in order to survive. The new difficulty introduces changes to stamina management, called the Tactical Stamina system, limited HUD options for better immersion, and a flickering flashlight that goes out when used for too long. These and other additions aim to heighten the atmosphere give the overall experience a needed refresh for veteran players. Those who manage to complete the game on this highest difficulty will be rewarded with the memorable Waltz Outfit.

The Nightmare Mode Update adds more than just the new difficulty. New adjustments to the Infected and night experience are also part of the update. What’s more, co-op players will be glad to hear they will now be able to take on the Community Maps with up to three friends. Archers will get reworked power shot mechanics. And you even have the opportunity to change the appearance of the Grappling Hook.

Dying Light 2 is available for PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series, Xbox One, and PC via Steam and Epic Games Store.
