'Vile: Exhumed' Banned/Removed From Steam

by Rainier on July 28, 2025 @ 3:13 p.m. PDT

Vile: Exhumed is a horror game where you explore a computer to uncover a story of what happened to actress Candy Corpse.

In Vile: Exhumed, explore someone’s old computer and follow their footsteps through forums, notes, photos, videos, and emails to sift through the secrets within. Browse through files, websites, emails, chat logs and more to stitch together the consequences of obsession, misogyny, and entitlement.

Every discovery brings you closer to the truth, and deeper into the rot of the mind.

Originally developed as a prototype in 2024, Vile: Exhumed garnered attention for its unflinching depiction of digital obsession and the violence that festers in the shadows and in front of our eyes. 

In this newly expanded experience, Vile: Exhumed has you piece together a story of obsession, misogyny, entitlement, and consequences.

The adult film actress Candy Corpse has retired, and the details surrounding her decision are unknown to many…

…but not to all.

 

Originally planned for launch on July 22, 2025, then delayed due to waiting on build approval, and now banned/removed from Steam.

Hello,

I am extremely disappointed to let you all know that VILE: Exhumed has been fully removed and banned for sale on Steam.

DreadXP and I are working actively to make sure that we can make the game available to you ASAP.  Next week you can expect to hear specific details. 

I want to be clear. VILE Exhumed was not banned for its use of gore in storytelling, or the violent themes-

it was banned for “sexual content with depictions of real people”, which, if you have played it, you know is all implied, making this all feel even worse.

I refuse to censor or make changes to the game, I will not retell a story about these topics in a way to make people who don't understand it more comfortable.

For updates and to know how to play VILE: Exhumed, follow me and DreadXP on Twitter, or join the DreadXP discord.
