Bloody Survival Horror Game ‘Gore Doctor’ Out Now on Xbox, Coming to PS5 on May 27 [Trailer]
Released last year onto Steam, Salient Games’ psychological horror title Gore Doctor is finally making its way to consoles, courtesy of publisher Ultimate Games. Slashing onto the Xbox Series today, the game will be heading to the PlayStation Store on May 27 for the PlayStation 5.
As you might expect, Gore Doctor draws inspiration from iconic films such as Saw, Hostel, The Texas Chain Saw Massacre, with Rockstar’s Manhunt thrown in for good measure. You finds yourself abducted and imprisoned in the confines of Dr. Gorberg’s institute. Once a respected psychiatrist, Dr. Gorberg’s descent into madness followed the tragic loss of his wife, Scarlett, to an incurable illness. Unable to cope with his grief, he transformed his institute into a hellish realm of despair and death, populated by grotesque mutants resulting from his twisted experiments.
As the protagonist, players must navigate through the institute in search of an escape. However, survival comes at a gruesome cost, often drenched in the blood of others. Players will have puzzles to solve and enemies to overcome at every turn, and with your limited weaponry, it’s best to avoid conflict rather than face it.
If you’re the “try before you buy” type, you can also check out the demo for Gore Doctor on Steam.
