[Watch] Experience The Horrors of Deep Space in The New ‘Haunted Space’ Trailer

Published

on

We mentioned Italian Games Factory’s unique take on sci-fi horror with their upcoming space shooter title Haunted Space back in March, and now the dev is back with a new gameplay trailer, courtesy of IGN.

The trailer harkens back to the days of Wing Commander: Privateer with its dogfighting and from-the-cockpit view, but also touches briefly on the ship building and customization. And of course, the “horrors of the void” you’ll be facing in the blackness of space. Again, it’s not quite what you’d expect in a spaceship shooter, which makes it all the more interesting as to how they’re going to pull it off.

Haunted Space is currently in development for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, and PC via Steam.

New Gameplay Teaser Shows off Key Mechanics for ‘Into the Dead: Our Darkest Days’ [Watch]

Over a year after it was first announced, developer PikPok has dropped a new gameplay teaser for their upcoming entry in the Into the Dead series with Into the Dead: Our Darkest Days. We still don’t have a release date for the zombie strategy game, which is currently in development for an Early Access release on Steam later this year.

The new gameplay teaser shows off Our Darkest Days‘ high tension atmosphere, including key gameplay mechanics such as crafting meals and tools, healing survivors suffering from physical and mental injuries, and of course, fighting off zombies.

“We’re really excited to be showing off a snippet of what we’ve been working on since our announcement trailer in 2023,” says Juliann Lum, PikPok senior product manager. “So much more has gone into the game, including new ways for survivors to interact with the world around them, each other, and of course the dangerous undead that infest the city of Walton.” Lum went on to say that more reveals for Into the Dead: Our Darkest Days are coming over the next few months.

Set in 1980 Texas, Into the Dead: Our Darkest Days is a 2.5D side-scroller where players must guide a group of survivors from shelter to shelter within the beleaguered Walton City, which is infested with the undead. Managing resources and survivors’ needs is crucial as players try to keep ahead of the rising threat while executing plans to escape the quarantined city area.

As mentioned, you’ll be scavenging for supplies, crafting tools and weapons, as well as fighting off the undead, all the while keeping constant movement as the zombie threat closes in. While their experiences will lead survivors to gain new skills, players will also need to manage their physical and psychological needs, as Our Darkest Days has a permadeath mechanic.
