'Song of Horror' (ALL) Complete Edition Comes to PS4 And Xbox One In Q2 2020

by Rainier on Dec. 5, 2019 @ 8:17 a.m. PST

Song Of Horror is an episodic third-person psychological horror/adventure where you have to face The Presence, an unpredictable, eldritch entity that reacts to your way of playing.

To Whom It May Concern,

This letter is a call for help. A week ago, my ex-husband went to the house of the famous writer Mr Husher, looking for him after failing to find him by phone or other means. He never came back. After three days without any news from him, I pleaded to his manager to go find him. He never came back, either. Now I am here, alone, at the house, trying to find out what happened... Something is watching all of my movements. I'm scared for my life.

I can’t ask you to put your life at risk for us – but you are a journalist, so there is something you can do. Tell our story. 

Do not let us be forgotten.

Song of Horror is a psychological horror adventure that offers a truly dynamic terror experience: its antagonist, the supernatural entity known only as The Presence, is controlled by an advanced AI (Artificial Intelligence) that adapts to your actions and decisions. Experience unbearable fear as this otherworldly being responds to your way of playing and hunts you down in unexpected ways, offering a unique experience to every player and every gameplay where tension builds up naturally instead of coming from scripted sequences.

Choose between a group of 13 unique characters that will help you unravel the mysteries of Song of Horror and try to put an end to its nameless nightmare. Every character is different, and brings their unique point of view to the investigation, allowing them to approach clues and items differently. Their actions and decisions will shape the world: some of them will know more or less of certain aspects of the story; some will be more effective against supernatural manifestations... But all of them can die if the Presence gets to them – and death is permanent in Song of Horror. If one of the characters die, you will have to pick the investigation up from where the deceased left it.

Raiser Games and Protocol Games are eager to reveal their fresh take on the survival horror genre - Song of Horror - will launch on PS4 and Xbox One in Q2 2020.

The console release will contain all five episodes and be called the “Complete Edition”.

In addition, PC owners who buy all five chapters will also receive the exact same content and updates delivered in Complete Edition. The cheapest way of doing this is to buy the Founder Limited Edition for $19.99/€19.99/£17.14 - before it disappears from sale at the end of December.

"It’s almost time for the next step in the Song of Horror story, and that means bringing the game we’ve spent years working on to a new audience” offers Ignacio Fernández, co-founder of Protocol Games, the studio behind Song of Horror. “Consoles have always been the traditional home of survival-horror games, so it’s great to be able to bring our entry in the genre to players who we know love these games as much as we do. We can’t wait.”

For PC gamers, the first two episodes of Song of Horror can be picked up on Steam today for $7.99/€7.99/£6.99 each, or as part of the Season Pass that unlocks the rest episodes on top of the original ones in the months ahead for $21.99/€21.99/£18.99. In addition, players can also purchase the Founder Limited Edition for $19.99/€19.99/£17.14.

Every episode will offer new, unpredictable spooky situations that will scare players. The first episode will be located at the scary Husher mansion. But for the second one we will travel to at a haunted building with a particularly horrifying antique shop. Do you fondly remember your school days? That's about to change when the third chapters brings you to a cursed college building. An abandoned abbey, surrounded by a deadly halo after a creepy concert, is the location of the fourth chapter but the one that really gets me is that mental institution where you will face the ultimate challenge.
