DreadXP Teases Xbox, PlayStation Release of ‘The Mortuary Assistant’ Later This Year

Published

on

Already available on Steam and the Nintendo Switch, DreadXP took to X yesterday to announce that they’re teaming up with Cerulean Games to port DarkStone Digital’s The Mortuary Assistant to the PlayStation and Xbox later this year. A more formal announcement is expected later this year.

We’re also hoping for more info on the upcoming film adaptation of The Mortuary Assistant, which was announced last year. The film is to be directed by Jeremiah Kipp (Sins, Slapface), with Patrick Ewald producing, Abbey Smith co-producing, and DarkStone Digital’s Brian Clarke and Ted Hentschke executive producing.

Released back in 2022 (check out Harrison’s take), The Mortuary Assistant centres on Rebecca Owens, a recent Mortician Studies grad, who on her first night at River Fields Mortuary, learns of a sinister presence that resides there. As the dead awaken and malevolent spirits bind themselves to her, Rebecca has to learn how to combat the demons (including the figurative demons of her past) and survive the night.

Upcoming “Unholy Alliance” Update for ‘Cult of the Lamb’ Adds Local Co-op and More [Teaser]

Published

on

Cult of the Lamb players will be getting more free goodies later this summer with the Unholy Alliance update. Coming August 12, the update introduces a brand new playable character in the Goat, which coincides with the game allowing local co-op.

With the Unholy Alliance update, the entire Cult of the Lamb campaign will be playable in local co-op. Players will also be able to enjoy special 2-player versions of existing mini-games, such as Fishing and Knucklebones, as well as choose from a selection of weapons, tarot cards, curses, and corrupted relics as your cooperative crusades progress.

The Lamb and Goat can also swap weapons, deal extra damage when fighting back to back, and even deliver a critical hit when their attacks are in sync. Good news for those who prefer to stay alone in their corner: they will be able to benefit from various new powers.

In addition to the addition of cooperative play, the Unholy Alliance expansion adds several tarot cards, relics, buildings, fleeces, character traits and quests, as well as the addition of new secrets to discover.

More information on the update will be released as the launch date creeps closer. Cult of The Lamb is available now on PC via Steam, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Xbox One, Xbox Series, and the Nintendo Switch.
