New Syndrome trailer is available on YouTube: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=LwzCjRg_bxo

YOU’RE NOT ALONE 
You wake up from cryosleep on Valkenburg – the most advanced science space station in the Novacore. The ship appears to be abandoned, but suddenly you hear a voice on the communicator…

Something from the abyss of space is kidnapping and killing the people on the ship. And it doesn’t stop hunting.

RUN. HIDE. FIGHT. SURVIVE. 
The enemies are strong and they outnumber so you have no choice but to go out of sight. Unfortunately, sooner or later you will have to face them, so remember that there is not much ammunition on the science ship.

Stay in the shadows and survive!

YOUR MIND IS ALSO YOUR ENEMY
Meanwhile, strange things start happening to your mind. Will you trust the voices or are they against you too? Where did the ” thing” on the ship come from? Will you be able to survive?

Explore the dark corridors of a spacecraft and discover the mystery behind the disappearance of your crewmates.

KEY FEATURES
KILL OR BE KILLED. You’ll find weapons on the ship, but the ammunition supply is limited. Count your bullets and stay in the shadows 

DEADLY ADVERSARIES. Enemies are dangerous, they’re hunters so they’ll follow any noises and investigate any disturbances so beware

MENTAL HORROR. Not just typical jumpscares – you’re closed on a creepy, claustrophobic spaceship with countless horrors inside, both physical and psychological

INTRIGUING PLOT – A seemingly simple mission turned into a bloody scenario – it’s up to you to find out what’s really going on

DEEP LORE TO DISCOVER – Plenty of exploration awaits for you to do inside the ship, and many things to discover about the story

Sacrifice Your Friends, a Lovecraftian party game in cute horror style, will launch on consoles and PC later this year

Sacrifice Your Friends is a 1- 4 players party brawler inspired by the works of H.P. Lovecraft. The game was successfully funded on Kickstarter and chosen as a finalist in the Ubisoft Indie Series competition.

You battle your friends in dynamic, trap-filled arenas. This fast-paced party game in a cute cartoon horror style, created by Astrolabe Interactive, will be released on Xbox One, Xbox Series S|X and Nintendo Switch later this year, thanks to RedDeerGames.

READY FOR SHEER MADNESS?
There is nothing sweeter than a chibi Cthulhu. But don’t be fooled by the cartoon style, Sacrifice Your Friends is a true challenge.

The game is fast and dynamic, and the battles are intense. Randomly appearing weapons and various traps make you think on your feet and never stay in one place too long.

Of course, unless you want to be sacrificed.


FOR LOVECRAFT FANS

The Mountain of Madness or the Nameless City catacombs are places that every Lovecraft fan will definitely recognize. Story mode will take you and your friends to locations inspired by the writer’s novels.

Would you prefer to explore the universe of H.P. Lovecraft by yourself? No problem. The brave one can go on a dangerous journey all alone in a single-player mode.

WHO SAID THAT HORROR CAN’T BE FUNNY? 
Sacrifice Your Friends will appeal to everyone who likes good horror… with humor. Chasing friends with an enormous axe in their hands, killer tentacles, or the odd fish-folks mob of Innsmouth – it sounds like an epic party! 

Sacrifice Your Friends Trailer is now available on YouTube:

Sacrifice Your Friends is already up on Steam Early Acces and will be available on Xbox One, Xbox Series S|X and Nintendo Switch later this year. The title supports cross-platform gameplay so that you can play with your friends online over different gaming systems.

LOCAL & ONLINE MODE
Whether you share a couch with your victim or live on two opposite edges of the world, the Great Old Ones know no borders. The game includes local and online mode!

Don’t forget to wake mighty Cthulhu up later this year with Sacrifice Your Friends!

ABOUT  H. P. LOVECRAFT
H. P. Lovecraft (August 20, 1890 – March 15, 1937) was an American horror fiction writer. He is one of the most significant authors of supernatural horror fiction, known as the creator of the Lovecraftian sci-fi-horror subgenre.

Lovecraft is best known for his horror stories „The Call of Cthulhu”, part of the Cthulhu Mythos. In his stories, the author introduced demonic creatures with supernatural powers from distant worlds, including the world-famous Cthulhu, a powerful deity depicted as half man, half dragon, and half octopus.

Lovecraft’s stories have served as the inspiration for numerous films – „Cthulhu” from 2007, HBO series – „Lovecraft Country” from 2020, and video games – f.e. „Bloodborne” by Japanese studio From Software.
