Celebrate Alien Day With a New Trailer for ‘The Greyhill Incident’ [Watch]
It’s Alien Day, so for developer Refugium Games and publisher Perp Games, it’s a no brainer to drop a brand-new trailer for their upcoming alien abduction game The Greyhill Incident. While there are sadly no Xenomorphs to be found, the game should provide plenty of screams that everyone can hear (especially with the Abducted Edition’s “Found Footage” Mode).
Inspired by ‘true incidents’, books, TV shows & films from Fire in The Sky to “The X-Files”, Communion and more, Greyhill Incident is a story-driven Survival Horror game that takes place during the early 90s in the town of Greyhill. You are Ryan Baker, and there’s an alien invasion underway. It’s up to you and your neighbours to work together to fend off the aliens from abducting everyone. That involves boarding up houses, establishing a neighbourhood watch, and using stealth tactics to navigate the town and avoid detection.
The Greyhill Incident will be available on PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series on June 9th. There will also be a physical version that includes the game itself, a guide to creating a tinfoil hat, a newspaper clipping that details the first alien invasion, as well as the game’s digital soundtrack.

LKA Delves Deeper Into the Horror of ‘When Sirens Fall Silent’ in New Presentation [Video]
During the Day of the Devs: Summer Game Fest Edition, publisher Wired Productions and developer LKA released a three-minute developer presentation for psychological horror game When Sirens Fall Silent, offering players a deeper look into the mystery, characters, and unsettling world of the upcoming psychological thriller.
Following two creative story-based cinematic reveals (which you can watch here and here) that introduced the game’s atmosphere, themes, and central mystery, LKA Founder and Director Luca Dalcò guides viewers further into the world of the forgotten people, revealing more of what awaits players as they uncover the truth behind a series of kidnappings and murders.
From the creators of Martha is Dead, When Sirens Fall Silent casts players as Mila, a policewoman in early 1990s Rome, Italy. Haunted by a past she’s desperate to escape, Mila is thrust into a high-profile case of kidnappings and murders. As the investigation unravels, you must not only save her from herself, but also from being consumed by the violence, mystery and confusion.
Featuring a branching, multi-layered narrative dialogue system, with a huge focus on verbal and emotional interaction, investigation and subsequent choices, players will be faced with difficult real-world topics. LKA aims to “pull no punches” with its story, but also hints at a few surprises along the way.
When Sirens Fall Silent is currently in development for PC via Steam, GOG, and the Epic Games Store.
