[Video] 80s Sci-Fi Horror Inspired Title ‘Chasing Static’ Oozes Atmosphere in New Trailer
Back in March, Ratalaika Games and developer Headware Games revealed their PS1-styled horror title Chasing Static. Over the weekend, the title got some new exposure during Realms Deep 2021 with a brand-new trailer. The release date for Chasing Static is still listed as “Q3 2021”.
If you’re keen on getting a taste of the game before its release, you can also snag the demo on Steam.
Inspired by 80s sci-fi horror and “contemporary surrealist cinema”, Chasing Static takes place in the small town of Hearth in North Wales. During a raging storm, protagonist Chris Selwood seeks refuge in a remote roadside café. Unfortunately for Chris, he finds the café waitress pinned to the ceiling by some creature, which has him passing out and waking up shortly thereafter to the dusty old abandoned remains of the café. What follows is Chris exploring the remains of a mysterious facility, and trying to piece together what happened to the missing villagers of Hearth.
Chasing Static will be released for PC via Steam, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch.

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.
