Escape Room Survival Horror Game ‘Do Not Open’ Releases November 15 [Trailer]
Developer NOX NOCTIS and publisher UNREALITY S.L. have announced that their upcoming escape room influenced survival horror title Do Not Open will arrive for PlayStation 5 and Steam users on November 15th, with a European physical version for the PS5 arriving on November 25th. North American players can expect their physical version to release early 2023.
For last-gen gamers who feel like they’ll be missing out, don’t worry. The PlayStation 4 version of Do Not Open will also be released in early 2023. NOX NOCTIS is also working away at a “definitive VR version” of Do Not Open for the upcoming PlayStationVR2.
Do Not Open is described as being based on procedural puzzle generation mixed with “classic survival-horror mechanics”. You play as Michael J. Goreng, a zoologist and epidemiologist who has become trapped in a warped version of his own house with his wife and daughter. Stalked by a paranormal threat, you must escape the house. It’d be simple if it weren’t for the fact that time is not on his side. With the clock ticking down to zero, he must solve the puzzles within each room he encounters in order to survive.
You can now wishlist the game on the US and UK PlayStation Stores.
Retroware surprised everyone last year with the announcement that they’re working on a throwback beat-’em-up based on the Toxic Crusaders cartoon. Grab your mop and get ready: the side-scrolling beat ’em up game is heading our way later this year.
Toxic Crusaders is now available to preorder on Steam, with the game set for Fall 2024 release. Exact date TBA.
Developer and publisher Retroware has teamed up with Troma Entertainment to bring the characters from the 1991 cartoon “Toxic Crusaders” back, for an all-new, all-action beat ’em up for one to four players.
In the game, “When the evil Dr. Killemoff attacks, only one team of hideously deformed creatures of superhuman size and strength stands between him and his plans for global pollution: the Toxic Crusaders, Earth’s last, greatest and ugliest hope for survival! Battle across seven disgusting levels rendered in vibrant pixel art as you defend Tromaville from hordes of Radiation Rangers, mutated thugs and zombie chickens. The odds might be stacked against you but with awesome powers, a winning personality, and up to four-players on your side, the Smogulan Empire’s days are numbered!
“Choose from seven playable characters, including Toxie, No-Zone, Junkyard, Major Disaster, and Headbanger – plus, for the first time, play as Toxie’s musically “gifted” girlfriend Yvonne, and the mother of all mothers, Mrs. Junko, Toxie’s mom!”
Considering this is set in Tromaville, it’s a safe bet that we’ll see more Troma characters beyond the Crusaders here. Toxic Crusaders will also feature fully voice-acted motion comic cutscenes, featuring voice acting by TeamFourStar, industry veterans, and of course, Troma actors.
Check out the gameplay demo below for a closer look at the Toxic Crusaders in action.
Toxic Crusaders is coming soon to Xbox Series X + S, Playstation 4 + 5, Steam, Nintendo Switch, and the Epic Games Store. But you can wishlist on Steam in the meantime.
