[Trailer] Psychological Horror Game ‘Horror Story: Hallowseed’ Busts Out of Early Access Today
The day’s finally arrived for fans of 1C Entertainment and developer Jeff Winner’s story-driven Horror Story: Hallowseed. The game is finally exiting Early Access on Steam, and has a shiny new trailer to boot.
Hallowseed has had its content “completely re-imagined” from the Early Access version. The full release includes a larger map, new levels, puzzles, and items, a redesigned forest area and house, upgraded visuals, improved sound effects, a new ending, and more.
Inspired by modern horror films such as Insidious, The Conjuring, and The Exorcism of Emily Rose, Hallowseed sees Michael (aka the player) enjoying a camping trip with a group of friends in the remote woods of Hallowseed. Of course, a setup like that begs for demons to come calling, leaving Michael separated from his friends. Now Michael must uncover the truth behind the horrors all around him, find his friends, and leave alive.
Horror Story: Hallowseed is also available today on GOG, Epic Games Store and other digital stores. The game is also enjoying a 20% discount for a limited time.

‘Little Nightmares III’ DLC “The Backstage” Releases June 12 [Trailer]
During the Future Games Show, Bandai Namco and Supermassive have announced the first DLC for Little Nightmares III in “The Backstage”. Featuring new puzzles and challenges, this additional content will take players to the darkest part of the Carnevale, where they’ll meet a new character and face new perils. You won’t have to wait long to get it, either, as Little Nightmares III – The Backstage DLC will release on June 12.
In this new adventure, Low will meet Dime, a new child who wears a torch hat, which turns out to be a very helpful tool for finding their way in what lies beneath the curtains of The Carnevale. The two children will have to face new threats and use their light to find a way to save Alone from the hands of the Puppeteer.
In the original game, players meet Low and Alone, who are trapped within the Spiral, a cluster of disturbing places. The two will have to work together to survive in a dangerous world full of delusions. As they scamper and shelter on their journey to escape the grasp of an even greater threat, their senses may also lead them astray into the shadows.
Little Nightmares III is currently available for PC via Steam, Xbox One, Xbox Series, Nintendo Switch, Switch 2, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5.
