Home Sweet Home

Survival horror Home Sweet Home has been announced with an October release date. Developer Mastiff Games, in partnership with Yggdrazil Group, made the announcement this week. Home Sweet Home will be released digitally on October 9th for all Xbox systems, PS4 and PS4 VR. Members of the Glorious PC Master Race can already avail of this chilling survival horror on Steam.

Home away from home

The game sees players take the guise of “Tim”, a seemingly average guy in fairly un-average circumstances. After a long night filled with mourning and sorrow over the recent disappearance of his wife, Tim awakens to find himself in a strange, dilapidated building instead of the comfort of his own home. Naturally confused, he desperately begins to search for a way out while attempting to solve questions that could lead to answers regarding his wife’s disappearance. At the same time, he’ll find himself being hunted by malevolent spirits. Home Sweet Home takes inspiration from traditional Thai ghost stories, so expect some proper Asian spookiness.
