Daedelic Entertainment and Vixa Games have announced Edge of Sanity, a horror-adventure-survival game being prepped for PC via Steam. Developers plan to release the game in 2023.
Developers have released a new trailer that offers a peek into the game that is set in Alaska during the Cold War. It appears very similar in style and gameplay to the Darkest Dungeon series.
The game features 2D art in an intense and difficult atmosphere. Players will set off into the “unforgiving wilderness” of Alaska and will need to find food and supplies to stay alive. Along the way, players will encounter cultists and monsters. It’s up to them to use anything available to survive.
Features include
- Lovecraft meets Alaska during the Cold War – Find a trace of local cults, face horrific monsters, and explore the unexplainable. Welcome to Alaska during the Cold War, full of people losing their sanity and beasts inspired by H.P. Lovecraft, a place where each dramatic event leaves a permanent mark on your brain.
- Complex Base Management – Even in the most hostile environment, you need a place to rest and plan your future expeditions. Find and assign remaining survivors, and send them out on missions to find food, water, or other survivors. But don’t let your guard down – with people being on the edge, anything can happen.
- Story-rich Expeditions – You were part of a resupply group helping scientists working in the field lab. Without any trace of humanity on site, you stumble upon the monsters, and during the escape, your group splits up. You were lucky enough to make it out alive and set up a provisional camp to plan your future expeditions to find out what happened.
- Fight for Your Life – Learn your enemies weaknesses, impair their senses, manage resources and make use of crafting abilities and the surrounding to survive against the powerful monstrosities. Whenever you are out of options, you can try fighting using your ax, but be prepared for a lethal ending.
Players can wishlist Edge of Sanity on its Steam page.
