'Underward' Is A Co-op Horror Adventure, Coming To PC In Early 2025 - Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on Dec. 14, 2024 @ 1:01 a.m. PST

Underward is a 1-4 player cooperative horror exploration game set in a procedurally generated underground hospital.

Players must work together to retrieve the "TEST-SUBJECT" while navigating the tension-filled corridors of this eerie labyrinth.

The highlight of Underward is the Connected Carry System, allowing players to synchronize their efforts and transport heavy capsules at breakneck speed -Failing to align one's movements may result in finding oneself in a terrifying predicament .

Designed with teamwork in mind, the game promises panic-filled fun, making it the perfect choice for those who enjoy chaotic co-op horror experiences.

Can you uncover the truth hidden deep within the depths of Underward?


Step 1: Search "Test-Subjects"

Once you exit the elevator, scour the floor for «TEST-SUBJECT».

But beware—traps and dangers are lurking everywhere. Some areas and mechanisms can only be accessed by cooperating with your teammates. It's best to avoid venturing alone if possible.

You might also find useful tools left behind in the area. Be sure to check out lockers, shelves, and any other hiding spots for gear. With luck, you may even find some highly advanced equipment.

Step 2: If they see you, run, or ...

There’s a chance you will encounter unknown enemies during your search.

They’re attracted to noise, so stay cautious. If you hide quietly, they might pass without noticing you. Adapt to the situation as needed.

But if you get spotted, run as fast as you can! Throw items you have at them—it might just help you fend them off.

Even if someone gets taken down, there's still hope for rescue.

Your teammate's location will be displayed on the screen, so act quickly and stay calm. Minimizing casualties will strengthen the team bond.

But remember: the window for rescue is shrinking by the second.

Step 3: Carry and carry and carry!

Once you’ve found «TEST-SUBJECT», carry it to the elevator with all your might.

Carrying the capsule creates a lot of noise, attracting enemies, so stay vigilant.

Although a single investigator can’t handle the heavy capsule alone, you can perform a «Connected Carry» system with multiple players to move it faster than the enemies can catch up.

However, if your teamwork falters, it could mean a one-way ticket to the afterlife.

Each «TEST-SUBJECT» has a different value.

We hope the team can retrieve the most valuable «TEST-SUBJECT» possible.

Then... Deeper into the Underward

Once you’ve met the recovery quota, proceed with the verification of the «TEST-SUBJECTS». We will operate the elevator to the next floor, so investigators should close the elevator door and wait inside.

We take great pride in the investigators who choose to venture deeper into the more dangerous floors.

  • 1-4 player co-op horror exploration game
