‘REANIMAL’ Nintendo Switch 2 Demo Now Available
Switch 2 fans can finally get a taste of what’s to come with their own demo for Tarsier Studios’ REANIMAL. The announcement comes with 30 days until the launch of the horror adventure title, but also news that the demo on PC, PlayStation and Xbox has surpassed one million downloads.
“I am really thrilled to have so many people playing the demo and hearing all the reactions so far,” says Tarsier Studios CEO Oliver Merlöv. “We pour a lot of heart and soul into the games we make, so to see all these people loving what we do is a great feeling for all of us! We are now gearing up for the release of REANIMAL on February 13th and after all this hard work, we can’t wait for people to get their hands on it!”
One of the most anticipated games this year for us, REANIMAL aims to deliver a chilling, co-op horror experience in the vein of Tarsier’s first two Little Nightmares entries that pushes the boundaries of atmospheric gameplay. In this co-op horror adventure game, you play as a brother & sister who go through hell to rescue their missing friends. Exploring by boat and on land, you must use your wits to survive, work together to escape the hellish island, and the dark secret that haunts you.
Pre-orders for REANIMAL are available now.

Sell Hot Dogs by Day, Gather Ingredients by Night in ‘Meat Grinder: Hotdog Simulator’ [Trailer]
Ultimate Games is getting in on the horror job sim genre next month with Panic Panda’s Meat Grinder: Hotdog Simulator. Launching on August 11 for PC via Steam, the open world title will also be making its way to PlayStation 5 and the Xbox Series at a later date.
Combining horror elements, grotesque humor, and retro PS1-style graphics, Meat Grinder: Hotdog Simulator has players arrive in the foggy town of Grimshore and open their own hot dog shop. Things are a real struggle to keep the business running while also securing your products.
During the day, you’ll be grilling the sausages, slicing the buns, frying up the potatoes, and doing the good entrepreneurial work your customers expect. Keep customers happy, keep the money coming, and reinvest in your growing fast food empire. At night, you’ll need to stock up on ingredients for hot dogs and other products. That involves dipping into Grimshore’s graveyard. Head out after dark, source some fresh ingredients, and get them back to the shop before opening time.
In amongst the side quests, the main plot sees you uncovering the stories of Grimshore, which the town would rather keep buried. You’ll also be digging into your own character’s past, though you may not like what you find down there.
