One of the standout games from Steam Next Fest earlier this year, “Hollowbody,” is set to release soon. In the midst of heightened anticipation for the upcoming “Silent Hill 2” remake, “Hollowbody” brings players back to the survival horror era of PlayStation, set in a near-future dystopia where you play as a black market runner navigating strange occurrences in a grim UK housing estate. With a semi-retro presentation and strategic use of fixed camera angles to enhance tension, the game offers a unique take on classic survival-horror gameplay with logic puzzles and limited combat options. The creator, Nathan Hamley, successfully crowdfunded over $35,000 on Kickstarter for this solo project following the positive reception of his previous game, “Chasing Static.” Scheduled for release on September 12 on PC platforms like Steam and GOG, “Hollowbody” promises an intriguing and immersive gaming experience that has already captured the interest of backers and players alike.
