Step into a wicked realm of paranormal phenomena in insidious environments brought to life with immersive VR support. Explore terrifying locations alone or with up to four friends in online co-op while carrying out spine-chilling investigations. Scour each stage for key objects and clues before completing a banishing ritual capable of eradicating the evil ghosts that stalk each location, all while a fearsome presence pursues the party with murderous intent. 

Equip investigative tools to detect otherworldly disturbances and stay alert for things that go bump in the night. Discern the difference between creaking floors and spectral moans while unlocking doors and progressing deeper into distributing environments. Shine spirit-repelling flashlights to fight back against unwelcome entities, tune ghost sensors, and coordinate with fellow investigators to collect cursed items and earn extra cash between missions.

Race against the clock to perform banishing rituals before malevolent spirits capture the party. A single unfortunate encounter with a ghostly pursuer sends humans into a crippling stupor, damaging their sanity and threatening to send them to an early grave. Revive co-op partners from death by dread quickly and stay cautious during investigations to increase the odds of survival. Enjoy a tense and terrifying specter-hunting experience with crossplay for both VR devices and keyboard/gamepad users, allowing everyone to steel their nerves and become a Paranormal Hunter.

Paranormal Hunter is now available through Steam Early Access for $9.99, with VR support for Oculus Rift, HTC Vive, Valve Index, and Windows Mixed Reality devices. It offers English, Spanish, Japanese, Portuguese, Russian, and Simplified Chinese-language support.

“Paranormal Hunter combines the haunting legacy of Japanese and Western horror imagery to create an immersive and genuinely terrifying experience for players in VR and non-VR settings,” Takatoshi Tatsumi, founder, EALoGames. “Few things are as dread-inducing as knowing you’re being pursued by something evil, and we’re excited to witness players face their fears with today’s Early Access launch!”

The Early Access version launches with two playable stages and a terrifying third stage planned for a future update.

Paranormal Hunter is coming to Nintendo Switch, PS4, PS5 alongside a PC v1.0 release (Steam) in late 2023.
