Horror Adventure Game ‘Sacred Line II’ Is a New Sega Genesis Game!

Published

Old school Sega Genesis/Mega Drive fans have been getting a sprinkling of new releases for a while now. Seriously, fans have been releasing games that can be played on your 30-year-old console. Fans can expect another one soon in Sasha Sarko’s upcoming horror adventure game Sacred Line II.

A sequel and a prequel to Sacred Line Genesis, Sacred Line II will be released on cartridges by Mega Cat Studios later this year. The story follows Sarah in an alternate reality of 1999, where Yugoslavia still exists. Sarah is kidnapped by the religious cult Svete Namjere (“Holy Intentions”). After being attacked by one of the cult members, Sarah dies, but is brought back into the world of the living aided by a mysterious force. Not only must Sarah survive in a crumbling Yugoslavia, she must also now prevent demons taking over the world.

Pre-orders for Sacred Line II are up now, and offer several levels. The $24.99 base level gets you a digital version of the game with your name mentioned in the main menu, as well as the game’s soundtrack. The Founder’s version ups that with the game featuring your name in future physical releases, while the pricier $499.99 Survivor DLC version gets you starring in your own DLC for the game!

Of course, if you’d like to try the game before you plunk down your money, you can do that with the game’s demo. You’ll need an emulator to play the rom image, so grab something like Kega Fusion to get started.

‘Horror Tales: The Beggar’ Releases on Steam, PS5 and Xbox on June 17; Steam Demo Available Later Today

After revealing the physical version for the PlayStation 5 back in March, solo developer Carlos Coronado has finally revealed the release date for the digital version of Horror Tales: The Beggar. The follow-up to 2021’s Horror Tales: The Wine will arrive on PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series and PC via Steam on June 17th.

On top of that, Coronado will be releasing a demo for Horror Tales: The Beggar later today on Steam. The demo features portions of the first three areas of the game, with some of the content from the main game cut down to make the demo more compact, but also upping the mystery of The Beggar that will be revealed in the full version.

According to Coronado, the release of the demo so close to the launch date is a “big gamble”, but justifies the decision because The Beggar is “a very weird and unique game.” In a news post on Steam, Coronado states that Horror Tales: The Beggar is not Horror Tales: The Wine 2.0. “It expands in not just the lore, but the gameplay itself too. Let’s just say that The Beggar is highly experimental with some game mechanics you’ve never seen in a horror game.”

The story for Horror Tales: The Beggar sees players step into the aftermath of a catastrophic event, where “terror and science fiction intertwine amidst the ruins of a shattered world.” You will explore the remnants of a once-thriving civilization, now reduced to a treacherous landscape that’s now been shaped by the chaos of cataclysmic forces.

The main gameplay mechanic has players engage in physics-based combat that “adheres to the laws of the game world.” You’ll have to think strategically in order to adapt to the constantly shifting challenges, navigating the world where every action and reaction is governed by the principles of physics.
