Fans of classic horror survival videogames can now get more of the scares and thrills for which they thirst. Tormented Souls is available now digitally on PlayStation 5 and Steam. Versions for the Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and Nintendo Switch are coming soon.
From PQube, Dual Effect and Abstract Digital Works, Tormented Souls is a return to classic fixed-perspective survival horror, inspired by cult classics such as Resident Evil and Silent Hill. Dropping into the secluded town of Winterlake, players investigate the disappearance of missing twin girls within the halls of an abandoned mansion-turned-hospital. Unspeakable horrors and mind-bending challenges await at every corner. Players must collect and combine resources, build weapons, and solve puzzles to unravel the mystery – and survive the night.
