As 2024 wraps up, we’re on the brink of a new year filled with fresh adventures and chilling realities to uncover.
In 2025, Post Trauma is set to arrive on Xbox, ready to deliver an onslaught of unimaginable nightmares. This game, a brainchild of Roberto Serrag and Red Soul Games, is a nod to legendary horror series like Silent Hill and Resident Evil.
Crafted with the power of Unreal Engine 5, Post Trauma takes players to eerily familiar settings such as desolate hospitals and abandoned metro stations within a haunting realm called “The Gloom.” But beware, as these places are reimagined in terrifying ways. Whether it’s the sight of ominous tentacles slithering through walls, grotesque figures skulking in the dark, or buildings on the brink of collapse, every corner holds unexpected horrors.
At the center of this nightmare is Roman, a retired train driver brought to life by the voice of Togo Igawa. He wakes up in a daze, surrounded by the eerie reality of The Gloom. Thanks to motion capture technology, Roman’s expressions and movements feel lifelike, drawing you deeper into the game’s unsettling atmosphere. His reactions to the horrors he encounters ground the experience, allowing players to see and feel his internal struggles.
The game expertly builds tension not through sudden jumps but by setting a chilling scene. The background score plays a vital role here, with haunting piano melodies accompanying Roman’s journey through dark corridors, escalating into heart-pounding rhythms during confrontations.
Exploration is key, so keep your eyes peeled for details in the environment as they might just hold the answers to some of the game’s more intricate puzzles. Having a notebook close by might be a smart move.
The Gloom is fraught with dangers, and Roman will need to fend for himself in life-threatening situations. Luckily, there’s an arsenal at his disposal, from a trusty crowbar to a powerful sledgehammer. As he ventures further, he’ll come across a pistol and a shotgun, which can be stored in chests found in safer havens. Every bit of inventory space is crucial!
In the great tradition of survival horror, Post Trauma changes the game just as you think you’re getting the hang of it. We’re excited for gamers to dive into its secrets when it launches in 2025 for Xbox Series X|S. Make sure to add it to your wishlist!
Launching under the Raw Fury banner, Post Trauma reinvents survival horror for modern-day gamers, pushing them to unravel mysteries in a reality that constantly defies expectations.
Can you handle the fear and find your way out of the nightmare? By piecing together seemingly disconnected clues and utilizing newfound tools, you’ll begin to unravel the story of this world and discover a possible escape route. Along your journey, patience and clever thinking become your greatest allies.
With a talent-rich cast including voices from Togo Igawa, Autumn Ivy, and Hyoie O’Grady, and an entrancing score by Nicolas Gasparini (Myuu), Post Trauma is a labor of love and a tribute to timeless horror classics, offering a unique blend of gameplay that is sure to leave a lasting impression.
