Carrion is a horror video game developed by Phobia Game Studio and published by Devolver Digital. Described as a "reverse-horror game",[1][2][3] the game allows players to control a tentacled monster whose objective is to make its way through a facility, stalking and killing humans in its path.[1]
Carrion was released for Microsoft Windows, Nintendo Switch, and Xbox One on July 23, 2020.[2][4]
The soundtrack by Cris Velasco was released by video game label Materia Collective on July 23, 2020.[5]
Gameplay
Players control a red, amorphous, tentacled monster. The monster must make its way through a facility, crawling through vents and killing scientists and soldiers. As the game progresses, players can obtain upgrades such as the ability to dash—which can be used to break through wooden barricades and access otherwise unreachable areas—and to grow in size.[1]
Development
Carrion was developed by Phobia Game Studio, an indie game developer based in Warsaw, Poland.[6] According to tweets by developer Sebastian Krośkiewicz, development on Carrion began at least as early as October 2017.[6] Gameplay from Carrion was first shown publicly at the 2018 Game Developers Conference.[7][8] An official reveal trailer for the game was uploaded to YouTube by Devolver Digital on June 9, 2019.[9] Devolver Digital promoted the game during their press conference at E3 2019.[10][11]
Release
Phobia Game Studio released a demo version of the game on Steam in October 2019.[12]
The game was released on desktop platforms (Windows, Linux and MacOS), Nintendo Switch, and Xbox One on July 23, 2020.[2][4] Prior to the announcement of the July 23 release date, the game was reported to have a PlayStation 4 release planned,[2] but no PlayStation 4 release date has been announced.[13]
