Lovecraftian Horrors Await! Fulqrum Publishing Shares New Details About Their Survival Horror Title Stygian: Outer Gods

Misterial Games offers a quick look into the story of their Lovecraftian prequel
 

Prague, Czech Republic – December 19, 2024 - Fulqrum Publishing and developer Misterial Games are delighted to deliver an early Christmas present to horror fans everywhere - as they share all-new details about their upcoming title Stygian: Outer Gods!

Stygian: Outer Gods pulls you into a hostile world that challenges your very existence, in this survival horror game with RPG elements. Unravel a thousand-year-old mystery, risk your sanity and face the Outer Gods with your skills. Every bullet and every decision counts now, are you up to the task? 

 

Set in the universe of Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones, the game lets players witness and influence the events preceding the Black Day. Immerse yourself in a unique world full of dangers, unexplored dark corners, and looming evil beyond mortal comprehension.

The game's protagonist is a former anthropologist and soldier, discharged due to a severe injury. Struggling with a fragile and deteriorating mental state, he is haunted by recurring nightmares and consumed with guilt over the unresolved disappearance of his father.

At the start of the game, everything shifts dramatically for our hero, and his life takes on a new purpose. He receives an invitation from a young woman to join an expedition to Kingsport, a secluded, enigmatic place that captivated his father's interest. This journey offers not only a chance to uncover the secrets of Kingsport but perhaps also the key to understanding his father's mysterious fate.

Players will find themselves drawn into a labyrinth of mysteries and hidden schemes, where every character harbors their own secret motives, shrouded in layers of deceit. As the clock ticks, the ominous arrival of the Black Day looms ever closer, leaving little time to unravel the truth. 

Fans of Stygian: Reign of the Old Ones will recognise some familiar faces on the streets of Kingsport, and of course iconic Lovecraftian characters, such as Keziah Mason, will make their presence felt - each featuring their own captivating storylines.

The game will feature a diverse arsenal of intriguing weapons, used in both ranged and melee combat - but don't mistake it for a straightforward first-person shooter. Ammo will be scarce and enemies formidable - meaning that avoiding encounters through stealth might often be the wiser choice. 

"Choice" being a key word when talking about the gameplay in Stygian: Outer Gods, as players will always have various options for how to approach an encounter. The game will also feature a character customization system that will let them unlock and upgrade skills and abilities to further hone their preferred playstyle.

Stygian: Outer Gods is currently in development for PC and PlayStation 5, and will be released in 2025.
