The release date for the console version of Song Of Horror is now set with Song Of Horror hitting us all before the end of May
Song Of Horror has been out there for a bit now for the PC gamers out there to show off how some of these characters out there will try to break this curse out there. Protocol Games has set up these thirteen characters to head out and survive all of these horrors while the PS4 and Xbox One crowds have been waiting to get their chance at it all too. These platforms were announced a while back when Song Of Horror was first lined up. Now, we can look to add this game to our collections on May 28th with the announcement we have here today. Time to get ready for some new horror in our lives.
If you have managed to dodge the spoilers and others playing Song Of Horror up to now, this title will have us controlling different characters in a mansion that has a creepy song playing and bringing all kinds of horrors to life. Horrors that will learn how to better come at us and engage with us based on our play style. All so we can figure out how to free us all and figure out what happened to the man that crafted it all. All with Song Of Horror offering up some of the usual Lovecraftian horrors in the mix that are still all of the rage out there. You can get a taste of all of this in the following trailer and get ready for a bit more of a wait until you get to get hands-on it all.
Song Of Horror — Releasing 28th May On PS4 & Xbox One
Having kick-started its movement to both refresh and honour the survival-horror genre with Song Of Horror on PC, Raiser Games and Protocol Games are utterly spooked to announce that the game will come to both PlayStation 4 and Xbox One consoles as one single release on 28th May 2021.
The release will allow console players to follow the same path their PC brethren enjoyed, taking on a thrilling paranormal story where the threat of The Presence, a dark entity that reacts to your way of playing, looms large throughout.
Song Of Horror sees players set out to investigate the mysterious disappearance of famed but now elusive writer Sebastian P. Husher — a man who, along with his entire family, has vanished without a trace. Taking on any one of 13 different characters, Song Of Horror is a Lovecraftian, third-person adventure that pays homage to classic masterpieces of the survival-horror genre.
At its heart, Song Of Horror is a non-combat adventure where the focus is instead on running and hiding, staying silent in the midst of all the terror to avoid triggering unnerving manifestations, capable of bringing the game’s protagonists to the brink of insanity. With the ever-present threat of The Presence keeping players on their toes from start to finish — powered by an AI that adapts to your gameplay —, Song Of Horror’s mission to keep you severely spooked is one it never lets up on.
Key Features
- A Truly Dynamic Terror Experience: Its antagonist, the supernatural entity known only as The Presence, is controlled by an advanced AI (Artificial Intelligence) that reacts to your actions and decisions.
- Experience Unbearable Fear: As this otherworldly being responds to your way of playing and hunts you down in unexpected ways, offering a unique experience to every player and gameplay where tension builds up naturally instead of coming from scripted sequences.
- Live This Story Through The Eyes Of A Varied Set Of Characters: related to the story in their own way. Every character is different, and brings their unique point of view to the investigation, allowing them to approach clues and items differently.
- Their Actions & Decisions Will Shape The World: some of them will know more or less of certain aspects of the story; some will be more effective against supernatural manifestations, but all of them can die if the Presence gets to them – and death can be permanent. If they die, you will have to pick the story up with another one, and continue the investigation so their deaths are not in vain.
- A Mysterious Antique Shop: a forgotten abbey, an abandoned mental hospital… Each location in Song Of Horror is inspired by the classics of the genre. Explore and investigate these haunted places to gather clues and items that will help you solve challenging puzzles while enduring the agonizing tension of the game’s atmosphere.
