Withering Rooms, a 2.5D horror RPG, has been announced for PC and consoles with a release date set for April 2nd, 2024. It’s the debut game from Seattle-based studio, Moonless Formless, and will also be getting a physical PS5 launch in May courtesy of Perp Games.
Withering Rooms invites horror fans to explore the haunted grounds of a Vicrotian mansion known as Mostyn House. This cursed estate is overrun with a menagerie of murderous entities including “overgrown undead, invisible ghosts, devious witches, and axe wielding madmen”.
As players make their way through the mansion it will rearrange itself each night, presenting new challenges. This is perhaps what interests us most about Withering Rooms – although it’s not showcased front and centre, the game seemingly features RPG roguelike mechanics as evidenced by mentions of player item builds and procedurally generated environments populating each playthrough. From what we’ve seen it looks delightfully macabre, like an obscure, early PS2 era horror hidden gem.
It’s not the only horror game that has recently been announced, hot on the heels of PS5 exclusive Shines Over: The Damned.
