A while back I wrote an article about a game being developed called Lorn. Well as you can probably guess judging by this article, a lot has changed since! The four brother team of Teamkill Media worked tirelessly to bring the game to its full potential and finally have a release date! The game, now called Kings of Lorn: the Fall of Ebris, will take players to the plague-ridden world of Lera where king Farren set out to rid the world of the scourge only to unknowingly plunge it further into chaos. Players take on the role of Farren as he journeys through the hellish landscape that was once his kingdom fighting to restore order in this first-person experience fighting hellish creatures and members of his former order. Kings of Lorn: the Fall of Ebris will be coming September 9th for PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One. Teamkill Media is so proud of their project that they could not wait

Fans don’t have to wait for E3 to get a firsthand glance at Capcom’s upcoming Iceborne expansion to Monster Hunter: World! Monster Hunter World: Iceborne will pick up where the original story left off as players will be joining the Research Commission again as they explore the frozen world of Hoarfrost Reach after a mysterious sighting of a Legiana monster. Hunters will have to explore the frozen map (which is also the largest to date in “Monster World”) as they gather supplies and prepare for the challenges of this new world. Some familiar monsters, like the Tigrex, will be making a comeback to this expansion as well as introducing some new ones like the Shrieking Legiana that can freeze the air around it as it attacks the hunters. Monster Hunter World: Iceborne will be coming to PlayStation 4, and Xbox One devices September 6th, 2019 while the PC release will be sometime during the winter, fitting I’d say! Pre-Orders are

To celebrate the third anniversary of their game’s release, Behavioral Interactive is bringing the modern slasher character, Ghost Face, to their growing stable of killers in the multiplayer game of cat-and-mouse Dead by Daylight. Ghost Face became a slasher film icon in the ’90s where he first appeared in Wes Craven’s film Scream and continued to be the antagonist in all four films. Ghost Face’s MO usually involved him calling his victims on the phone before striking. The Ghost Face DLC will be coming to Dead by Daylight on PC and console on June 18th. Ghost Face will have three perks along with his powers. Our masked killer will have two exclusive items, a silvery steel tactical knife weapon, and the monochrome mania body.

Fans of Layers of Fear better get ready to raise anchor and sail off into a living nightmare! Gun Media and Bloober Team allowed me the chance to try out their latest trip into terror, Layers of Fear 2. Does it hold up to its predecessor? Join me as we take a look. Layers of Fear 2 follows the same story arc of the first where instead of a world-renowned painter being tormented by supernatural mental baggage, it’s a popular actor. The actor is not just an actor but a method actor who’s known for really getting into character. The unnamed actor is on a cruise ship where the latest film he’ll be working on is being filmed. The film’s director (Voiced by Tony Todd) is mysterious and is known to make his actors go through “tests” to get them into peak performance almost adapting an extreme version of Stanislavski’s Method. These trials consist of traversing a nightmarish reality where

The rumor mill has been going in overtime since Bruce Campbell teased earlier this week that more of the Evil Dead franchise was on its way. Today, we finally know what he was teasing, a new immersive Evil Dead video game! And no, we’re not talking about Dead by Daylight. Last year we interviewed Campbell after retiring from his character Ash Williams, the star of the franchise, and he teased that he was working on a few things he couldn’t go into detail about yet. But he was crystal clear about one thing, Ash is retired. During a recent chat with TV Insider, he talked a little about the new game. We’ll see more Evil Dead, that’s for sure. There is an Evil Dead video game out,” Campbell told the site. “A fully immersive video game probably within a year. I’m not sure about the day. There will be variations of that.

For a while now, since I first saw the concept art for it, I’ve been really hyped for A Plague Tale: Innocence. I have to give a thousand thanks to Asobo Studio and Focus Home Interactive for giving me an opportunity for seeing if the hype I’ve had was worth the wait. I’m happy to say, this is possibly the best game I have played so far as a Game Reviewer here at Horror Fuel! A Plague Tale: Innocence Follows Amicia De Rune, whose world was flipped upside down one fateful day when Inquisition forces led by Lord Nickolas murder her parents. Before escaping, Amicia is given the task to look after her little brother Hugo, who has been kept indoors since his birth due to an infliction that made their mother, an alchemist, his full-time caregiver which has led to a tense relationship between Amicia and her mother and resentment towards Hugo. The siblings are forced to bond since

With its May 14th release approaching, Asobo Studios and Focus Home Interactive put up a new trailer that focuses on the human foes in A Plague Tale: Innocence. The trailer titled “Monsters” shows that the plague rats are only a fraction of what our heroes need to worry about, while the rats are driven by nature and instinct, humans are far scarier as they’re driven by something else. The game’s main characters, Amicia and Hugo are orphaned while the plague tears through France and their only salvation is to leave but not just because of the illness and the rats, but because of the inquisition that seeks out Hugo. The sibling’s masked foe is Lord Nickolas, is the commander of the Inquisition’s forces. A worthy opponent who will do whatever it takes to complete his mission and not allowing anyone to get in his way. But every puppet needs a master and his name is Vitalis, a mysterious clergyman whose
