Horrifying creatures, confusing underground mazes, and shocking revelations leads to questioning the trustworthiness of the team. Not only will she have to fight against the physical enemies, but nightmares from her past also become increasingly real. Leaving no safe space, not even her own mind.
Players will have to fight some pretty terrifying enemies to complete the mission. In Reyes’ fight for survival, a new type of innovative weapon – the Frost Grip – will be equipable. Although there will be no shortage of weapons available, the enemies bring on some interesting quirks of their own. In a similar vein to Deadspace and The Callisto Protocol, enemies are incredibly smart and aggressive. Some may even come back to life in a completely new form and even deadlier than previously encountered.
Daymare 1998: Sandcastle will be available for PlayStation 4/5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, Steam, and on GOG.
