Developer Atelier QDB’s psychological horror narrative adventure Decarnation, which features music from Silent Hill composer Akira Yamaoka, arrives today on the Nintendo Switch and PC via Steam.
Inspired by iconic 2D adventure-horror games and cult movies from the likes of David Lynch, and Satoshi Kun’s Perfect Blue, Decarnation takes place in Paris, 1990. Gloria is at the end of her rope. A struggling cabaret dancer dealing with the fraying of her relationships, career, and self-esteem, she takes on a new artistic endeavor sponsored by a mysterious benefactor.
Wander into the daunting depths of a world dripping with disturbing beasts lurking within Gloria’s life and, more frighteningly, her mind. Survive twisted mini-games and equally depraved mind matches. Challenge puzzle-solving skills, rhythm, reflexes and more through 15 different types of gameplay in a series of phantasmagorical environments designed to bring tormented souls to their breaking point. Defeat despicable monsters and confront dark internal battles on the blurring plane between reality and imagination.
Decarnation also features chilling soundtrack contributions from Yamaoka, as well as Alt236, and Fleur & Bleu in this tortuous, story-driven struggle for survival with surprises around every corner.
“Decarnation’s nightmarish journey and psychological trials are ready to haunt the minds of seemingly brave souls now and for many years to come,” said Quentin De Beukelaer, founder of Atelier QDB. “Absolutely nothing is as it seems and making it out alive requires joining Gloria on an adventure to the brink of her sanity, and yours.”
