Landfall, known for creating engaging titles like Totally Accurate Battle Simulator and Stick Fight: The Game, has unveiled its latest project, "Content Warning." This new release dives into the horror genre, offering a first-person co-op experience. As of its launch, gamers can download the PC version at no cost on Steam until 9 AM PT on April 2. After this promotional period, the game will be available for purchase at $7.99.
In "Content Warning," players embark on a nerve-wracking journey into a mysterious and forbidden realm. Whether braving it alone or teaming up in groups of two to four, the goal is to produce humorous content for SpookTube. Their exploration is not without peril, as the path is littered with sinister entities and accursed artifacts that they must navigate while trying to capture their adventures on camera.
Drawing inspiration from the co-op horror game Lethal Company, "Content Warning" skillfully blends elements of horror with comedy. It places players in scenarios filled with potential for genuine terror. However, it's the players' choice to either immerse themselves in the fear or spin these encounters into comedic gold for their SpookTube audience.
Customization is a key feature, with players given the ability to personalize their characters through an ASCII face customizer. Additionally, before descending into the Old World, they have the option to acquire various pieces of gear. This strategic element allows for creative approaches in facing the monstrous inhabitants lurking below.
"Content Warning" invites players to a unique horror-comedy experience, letting them decide how to face the darkness with either dread or laughter, all while capturing it for the amusement of their virtual followers.
