Unholy is a first-person psychological horror experience that follows the disappearance of a young child from a run down, unwelcoming post-soviet town.

Unholy takes place on a desolate planet where last members of the human race live in the Last City. This sprawling metropolis is divided between castes, and every day is shrouded in fear. Fear of being noticed by higher castes. Fear of being killed by a mysterious Plague that is slowly consuming the city Fear of being caught by one of the maniacs or mysterious beast that are going through the streets at night.

Become Saidah, a mother in search of her abducted child. Venture through morbid streets of the last city on a dying planet. Challenge a repressive regime under which your whole life is determined by which social caste you belong to.

Gameplay is a mix of horror and stealth game, where for each challenge can be overcome in several different ways. Will you sneak through the guards unnoticed or will you resort to murder, leaving behind you a trail of blood as you fall into madness? As an outcast and a wanted person you have a unique chance to exploit the caste system and impersonate different members of society. Your playstyle is your own, but each has its consequences.

Creative Art Diector of Unholy is Tomasz Strzałkowski, known for such titles as Painkiller, Bulletstorm, Gears of War, Godfire and Inner Chains.


Developer Duality Games are excited to reveal the official release date for Unholy, coming to PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S on Friday, 13th of September 2024.

“We wanted to create a game that goes beyond the terrifying and frightening layer of gameplay, but also deeply engages players with its story and world,” said Tomasz Strzałkowski, CEO and the artistic mind behind Unholy at Duality Games. “Unholy is a personal journey that blends psychological horror with refreshing gameplay mechanics in the genre, and we can’t wait for players to finally experience it on console.”

Key Features:

  • Two parallel worlds to explore. The grey and cold reality of a brutalist post-soviet Eastern European town and the creepy and twisted world of Unholy, a grotesque society ruled by a relentless priest caste.
  • An intense psychological horror experience driven by a deep, dark narrative storyline played out with captivating visuals based on the works of reputed dark artist Tomasz Strzałkowski (Duality Games Art director and founder).
  • A unique gameplay blend that combines meticulous exploration, intriguing puzzle solving, infiltration and stealth with innovative shooting dynamics.
  • An innovative combat system. Use four different emotions: anger, fear, sadness and desire to interact with the environment (destroy obstacles, trigger mechanisms, overload circuits, illuminate your way) or to confuse, lure or damage your opponents.
  • Masks! Everybody in the unholy world hides behind a mask and it can be the difference between life or death. Build your own mask to get new skills and improve your abilities or wear other masks to infiltrate, confuse your enemies and impersonate your opponents.

Currently available for PC (Steam), Unholy is coming to PS5, Xbox Series X|S on September 13, 2024.
