Experience a Digital Nightmare With Retro-Futuristic Title ‘Spirit Catcher 93’’ [Trailer]
New two-man developer Apex Game Studios just added another game to your Halloween playlist with Spirit Catcher 93′. Coming October 2025 to the Epic Games Store, this retro-futuristic horror game aims to immerse players in a unique blend of classic retro aesthetics and futuristic digital dread.
In Spirit Catcher 93′, players become a fragmented soul in a distorted digital realm. Armed with the mysterious Spirit Catcher, they must navigate continually-shifting landscapes as they work to uncover the unsettling truth hidden within this fractured reality. All the while, they must evade the relentless entity know as the Shepherd.
But beyond evading the Shepherd, a deeper mystery beckons: What is this place? Are you merely a simulation, or are you dead? Perhaps you’re trapped in a coma, or even part of a terrifying experiment?
“We are incredibly excited to bring Spirit Catcher 93′ to players,” says Khaled Abbas of Apex Game Studios. “As a small indie team, we’ve poured our passion into creating a game that delivers a fresh take on the horror genre, combining classic retro vibes with a compelling narrative and challenging gameplay.”
Bloober Team appears to have something in the works related to Cronos: The New Dawn. At least, that would appear to be the case, thanks to an accidental reveal ahead of this weekend’s IGN Live event as part of Summer Game Fest.
In the list of title reveals during the event, something referred to as “Cronos: Lazarus” appeared in the list, but was quickly scrubbed. However, not before the internet picked up on it. Adding more fuel to the reveal were two screenshots posted to X by insider Intercelluar, which appear to show the official art. It’s not clear yet, but this is more than likely a new DLC for Cronos: The New Dawn, given that Bloober Team is already busy with multiple other titles, including the Silent Hill remake, and the recently-announced Layers of Fear 3.
If you haven’t checked out Cronos: The New Dawn (and you never read Aaron’s review of the game), the game is set in the haunting ruins of New Dawn, a world inspired by Nowa Huta, a real historical district in Kraków, Poland. Cronos: The New Dawn unfolds across two timelines: a post-apocalyptic future decaying in despair, and the gritty, industrial 1980s reality. This powerful duality blends retro realism, dystopian sci-fi, and a retro-futuristic atmosphere to create a deeply immersive world filled with tension, mystery, and terror.
Players step into the hunting suit of The Traveler — an enigmatic agent of the Collective, sent into zones scarred by the Change, a cataclysmic event that shattered time, memory, and flesh. What remains is a world suspended between past and future — haunted, hostile, and unravelling. Survival is anything but certain.
