New ‘Zoochosis’ Gameplay Footage Goes From Mundane to Horrifying in a Hurry [Watch]

Published

Clapperheads is still working away at their bodycam horror title Zoochosis, but that doesn’t mean they can’t drop a new trailer for the game. Courtesy of IGN,  the new gameplay teaser for Zoochosis showcases the gameplay and the horrific animal mutations you’ll be up against later this year.

Just in case it flew under your radar when the game was first revealed back in January, Zoochosis casts you as a zookeeper, whose night shift takes a horrific turn when a number of the zoo’s animals become infected with a parasite, causing them to mutate into something that looks straight out of John Carpenter’s The Thing. Captured via your body camera, the animals are ready to do anything to kill you in order to escape.

Therefore, it’s up to you to identify the infected animals (which really shouldn’t be hard) and concoct a cure before the contagion spreads throughout the zoo. As the night progresses, the line between survival and death blurs. Your resolve to save these innocent creatures will be tested, and your choices will shape the outcome. But at what cost?

Along with dealing with the infected, you’ll also have to keep up with your duties as a zookeeper for the uninfected animals. Along with isolating them from the mutated animals, you’ll need to care of them, choosing and preparing their meals, as well as restock and clean up after them in their respective enclosures.

Zoochosis is available to wishlist now via its Steam page, with a Q2 2024 release date.

Remember back in 2022 when developer Survios had announced that they were teaming up with 20th Century Games to develop a new Alien title? Well seeing as it’s Alien Day, Survios has announced their brand-new VR title, Alien: Rogue Incursion. Coming “Holiday 2024” to the PlayStation VR2, SteamVR, and Quest 3, Rogue Incursion will feature an original story that “fully surrounds players within the terrors of the Alien universe”.

Details on the game are light at the moment, but the official site describes the upcoming title as being “designed by Alien fans for Alien fans”, with Survios aiming to craft a “technically advanced, and frightfully immersive Alien virtual reality game.”

Seeing as Alien: Isolation never got official VR support when it was released, this is obviously a welcome announcement. In the meantime, if you’re keen to experience an Alien game in VR, you can always check out the fan-made mod for Alien: Isolation by Nibre_, which allows both the Steam and Epic Games Store version of Alien: Isolation to be played using the Oculus.

And speaking of Alien: Isolation, as you might expect, it’s got a hefty 80% discount going on at the moment on Steam until May 1. So if you still haven’t grabbed it after all these years, this is as good a time as any.
