Greyhill Incident, the highly anticipated alien invasion indie survival game, has finally announced its official release date. Developed and published by Refugium Games, the game will be launched on June 9th, 2023, and will be available on PC, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5, as well as Xbox Series X|S. The release date trailer, which was recently posted on Refugium Games’ official YouTube channel, gives us a glimpse of what to expect from this upcoming survival horror game.
A Mixture of Creepy and Playful Fun
The trailer for Greyhill Incident gives off an odd tone, with visuals that aim for genuine creepiness but performances, dialogue, and other content that lean towards playful fun. For instance, the characters are seen desperately searching for tin foil, which doesn’t seem to line up with the shadowy dread of the environments. Despite this, there are also some cinematic shots that feel pretty unsettling.
The game is set in the 90’s and draws inspiration from classic alien imagery, with the Steam page even nodding to The X-Files. The Greys in Greyhill Incident have a Dark Skies style to them instead of something more menacing or unexpected, and it remains to be seen if the game can successfully blend scares and charm.
What to Expect from Greyhill Incident
Greyhill Incident is an alien-themed, story-driven survival horror game that puts players in the shoes of a lone survivor fighting against an alien invasion. The game takes place in a small town in the United States that has been overrun by extraterrestrial creatures. Players must navigate their way through the town, scavenge for resources, and fight off aliens to stay alive.
The first-person survival approach is smart, and there are a lot of great references to classic alien imagery. However, some players may find the game more suited for a VR experience. Although it supports PlayStation, it would be nice to see the game on PS VR2 sometime. After all, the console just launched this week, and Greyhill Incident only recently announced its console release.
Greyhill Incident is an exciting survival horror game that offers a mix of scares and charm. With its official release date now announced, fans can look forward to experiencing the thrill of fighting off an alien invasion on June 9th, 2023. The game will be available on multiple platforms, and its first-person survival approach and classic alien imagery make it a must-play for fans of the genre.
