Lovecraftian Horde Shooter ‘Outer Terror’ Heads to Consoles April 12 [Trailer]
Released onto Steam last year, VoxPop Games and developer Salt & Pixel’s horde shooter Outer Terror will be heading to the Xbox Series, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, and the Nintendo Switch on April 12, courtesy of publisher Ratalaika Games. We previously reviewed Outer Terror for PC last year.
“Outer Terror is a testament to VoxPop’s commitment towards elevating indie developers to greatness and we are so proud to bring this tremendous indie hidden gem crafted by Salt & Pixel to the wider purview of home entertainment consoles and an entirely new global audience,” said Marc Anthony Rodriguez, co-founder & COO of VoxPop Games, who served as Executive Producer for Outer Terror. “Expanding on our new publishing partnership with Ratalaika Games, this will be the first VoxPop Games property on consoles and we couldn’t be more excited.”
In Outer Terror, players choose from 10 unique survivors, each with their own weapons and special skill attacks, to rage through relentless waves of otherworldly terrors. Those terrors include creatures pulled from a variety of classic horror genres reminiscent of 80s and 90s Golden Age comics and B-movies, with boss battles “tearing straight out of a Lovecraftian yarn.” Whether playing solo or co-op, each playthrough of Outer Terror gives players a different experience with randomized weapons and upgrade choices, enemy patterns, and areas of the map.

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