Sometimes your worst enemies are your own memories!

In a moody trailer filmed within the growing extradimensional void beneath a motel in El Paso, Texas, watch as our hero, James Savage, confronts threats both past and present. Dealing death to classic monsters from folklore and fiction, players will visit otherworldly venues ranging from burning Victorian manors to claustrophobic meat lockers. Despite an injured body and a broken heart, Savage limps towards his “one-way trip,” with breathless players in tow.

After learning that his ex-girlfriend, Draculae, the lord of vampires, is conducting a ritual that will destroy the world, Savage returns to his hometown of El Paso, Texas to kill the monster he loved. In a mind-bending neo-noir shooter, players will plunge 50 floors beneath a haunted motel in search of the vampiress before she has a chance to alter the universe as we know it.

Diving across environments in a reality-defying, dimension-shifting void, players will have to use every weapon at their disposal to slaughter the monsters guarding Draculae - and it's up to you to figure out which weapons work best in each unique scenario if you’re going to save humanity. 

Fueled by pills that keep the pain away, use dual pistols, shotguns, uzis, stakes and more to kill your way through the seemingly-endless motel. Your final advantage against these creatures is Bullet Time, which can be activated by itself or by diving with whatever weapon you have poised to fire. Through exquisitely designed flashbacks and stylish monologues from Savage, players will learn what led Savage to split from his ex, as well as how, and why, he was drawn back.

Today’s trailer showcases a stylish depiction of the story of El Paso, Elsewhere while dropping hints and glimpses at what’s to come when the game launches on September 26 through its latest released OST sample, “Stay Awake” - an original collaboration between Nelson and Lake. The song features vocals by Nelson, who also voices the haunting, self-loathing protagonist in the game.

Key Features:

• Never Stop Slaying: Featuring numerous weapons, players will have to experiment with each distinct weapon type to discover the most effective options for each encounter. Bolstered by Bullet Time, which can be activated by diving or a button press, it will take dedication and skill to make it through the night.
• Close the Wound: Between the slaughter, glimpse into the mind of James Savage as he recounts his experiences with Draculae and what brought him back to his hometown of El Paso, Texas. Featuring a dramatic, introspective narrative, you’ll shoot and stake your way through over 45 levels of iconic supernatural monsters on your way to slay Draculae. Just make sure to save the unfortunate souls trapped on each floor before diving deeper.
• A Monstrous Menagerie: El Paso, Elsewhere pits players against distorted werewolves, biblically-accurate angels, vampires and more. Each fantastical creature will demand your utmost skill and focus.
• Scary Good Tunes: Pushing players further into the motel is a custom OST for El Paso, Elsewhere. Created in a collaboration between RJ Lake and Xalavier Nelson Jr., the game’s soundtrack is a collection of original horror hip-hop tracks that mesh heavy beats with piercing lyrics.
