Experimental Horror Game ‘Night Signal’ Puts Weird Into Watching TV [Trailer]

While it’s not quite the TV from Videodrome, Nicholas Lives’ upcoming experimental horror game Night Signal looks to be just as bizarre and horrifying. The game is currently slated to release on Steam on November 7, and is intended to be a short-but-sweet affair.

Taking inspiration from The Twilight Zone and Inscape’s forgotten 1995 horror game The Dark Eye, Night Signal‘s premise is a simple one: you’re breaking in a new television set. That involves tweaking the antenna to pick up a signal. Anachronisms aside, you quickly come to find out that your new TV seems to pick up strange signals after midnight. From there, it only gets weirder, as someone’s slipped a TV Guide under your door to help you “track your sightings”.

Furthering the experimental angle, Night Signal features a mix of clay, photography, and illustration for its visuals. If you’ve played The Dark Eye, you’ll know what to expect. The game also features an original soundtrack by We Need To Go Deeper composer David Johnsen, who has created a mix of sounds akin to 60’s sci fi and Silent Hill.

As mentioned, the game is intended to be completed in one sitting, with it lasting about one hour, which is perfect for experimental ditties like these. You can currently wishlist the game on Steam now, so get to it.

Killer Klowns from Outer Space: The Game will be released on PC, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S on June 4, which means we’re less than one month away from playing.

The developers over at Teravision Games and IllFonic are whetting our appetite even further with two sneak peek videos this week that preview two exciting aspects of the game.

For starters, Killer Klowns from Outer Space: The Game will feature FEMALE KLOWNS, just like the ’80s movie itself, which you can preview in the first video below.

Additionally, you’ll be able to “create your very own Klownsona” in the game, meaning you can adjust the way your Klown characters look. Get a taste of that system below.

And be sure to read our early preview of the game right here!

Killer Klowns from Outer Space: The Game can be pre-ordered right now from the STEAM Store, PlayStation Store & Xbox Marketplace. The game has full crossplay support.

Killer Klowns from Outer Space: The Game is a 3v7 asymmetrical multiplayer horror game based on the cult horror classic film. When murderous alien Klowns come to feed on the quiet town of Crescent Cove, the locals must work together to fight back and survive the invasion.

Players can team up as either Klowns or humans, choosing from a variety of character classes, to explore an expansive, ever-changing map with creepy surprises waiting around every corner.

  • Take on the role of the iconic Killer Klowns – cooperate in a team of three players, utilize unworldly abilities, hunt humans with zany weapons, and plan your alien invasion to harvest the population of Crescent Cove successfully.
  • Fight back as a team of seven brave citizens of Crescent Cove – explore the city for valuable loot and weapons, avoid getting captured by Klowns, and try to survive the alien invasion.

Developed by Teravision Games and Illfonic, this playfully panic-inducing action experience faithfully recreates the atmosphere of the iconic movie and aims to stir up the asymmetrical multiplayer horror genre in multiple ways. The game is being developed as a live-service title, with multiple content updates planned for post-launch.
