New Demo For ‘Mirror Forge’ Available Now

Published

Not to be outdone by the previous announcements at Realms Deep 2022, DreadXP’s recently-acquired upcoming Survival Horror title Mirror Forge has a new demo for you to check out. This new Mirror Forge demo is the same one that was featured at both PAX West and Gamescom, so if you missed out on those events, here’s your chance. DreadXP also posted a new trailer for Mirror Forge to Twitter, which you can see below.

Developed by MystiveDev, Mirror Forge centres on Thomas Jackson, a troubled man whose drunk driving two years ago resulted in his girlfriend Jill’s coma and the loss of their baby. Though Jill recovered, the ordeal destroyed their relationship. Compounded by his job loss, Thomas tries to commit suicide. While therapy and medication have helped, Thomas’ past comes calling once again, resulting in him seeking solace with Jill to try and get back what was lost.

However, Jill, a journalist, is nowhere to be found. His only clue: footage of her last report. Missing children, a place called Devil’s Womb Canyon, and a mysterious blue explosion.

In Mirror Forge, players must travel between alternate dimensions enveloped in darkness and home to unearthly creatures. Using mirrors to cross between these realms, players will experience a variety of familiar and bizarre environments — from gloomy, narrow apartments to open towns, ancient houses, and factories. And in keeping with survival horror tropes, in Mirror Forge, Thomas has no way to defend himself. As a result, he must evade creatures while also solving puzzles, and piece together the source of Jill’s disappearance and the otherworldly occurrences that currently haunt him.

Mirror Forge is slated to arrive Q4 2022 on Steam.

‘El Paso, Elsewhere’ – LaKeith Stanfield Starring in Adaptation of Monster Hunting Video Game

Last year’s monster hunting shooter El Paso, Elsewhere is headed to the screen, with THR reporting that LaKeith Stanfield (Haunted Mansion) will star in the live action film adaptation.

Stanfield will also produce the film alongside Lorenzo di Bonaventura.

THR notes in today’s report, “There is no writer or director, as the project is still being packaged in the hopes of finding a studio home. The package is seen as buzzy, as it is a video game adaptation, a bustling genre thanks to titles such as The Last of Us, the Sonic the Hedgehog franchise, and the most recent hit, Fallout.”

In the upcoming movie version of El Paso, Elsewhere, “Recovering from a toxic relationship, James Savage (LaKeith Stanfield) confronts both his inner demons and enigmatic ex-girlfriend, Janet, before she executes a world-ending ritual. James navigates her reality-bending universe of ethereal monsters while facing the truth of his own addictions and skewed sense of self-worth. James learns that the only route to love is through healing.”

Developer Strange Scaffold’s El Paso, Elsewhere was released this past September.

Aaron Boehm wrote in his 4-star review here on Bloody Disgusting, “Much like its inspiration Max Payne, and other games in Remedy’s catalog, there’s a clear vision that unites every frame of this game, making for an experience that both reignites a classic action subgenre and forges an identity all its own. Few games have a better elevator pitch than El Paso, Elsewhere, and it’s awesome to see it live up to those expectations with style and heart.”
