Publisher PQube has announced that Tormented Souls, will release onto PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S on August 27th, celebrating the news with a new trailer and that the PlayStation 4 and Switch versions of the game will come later in the year.

The game is a return to classic fixed perspective survival horrors, inspired by cult classics such as Resident Evil and Silent Hill. In the spine tingling game, players collect resources, build weapons, and solve puzzles using anything and everything you can to fight back against the unspeakable creatures roaming the town of Winterlake.

The game will start with you being lead to the small, isolated town of Winterlake, something terrible happens to Caroline Walker. Waking in the dead of night, naked and alone, hooked up to decrepit medical equipment, Caroline must fight for her life as she explores the halls of the abandoned mansion. As the previous inhabitants run amuck, you must scavenge essential resources and tools to decipher clues and create a variety of weapons to protect yourself from the darkness within.

But nothing is quite as it seems in Winterlake, you will need to cleverly combine items and scour your surroundings for clues as you face cryptic and unusual puzzles throughout the grounds of the mansion. Mirrors provide a gateway to another place and time – investigate even the seemingly mundane to discover ways to manipulate the very fabric of reality and seek your escape.

Beware though, you are Never Alone in the Dark - The mansion may seem stark and abandoned, but the deeper you venture, the more overwhelming the horrors within become. From terrifying, wheelchair-bound atrocities to vile disembowelled crawlers prowling the halls, these tormented medical monsters aren’t the only threats that Caroline must face. There are also darker threats at play – quite literally. Early on, you are warned not to let the shadows embrace you…
