Thunderful & Space Lizard Studios are delighted to announce that their mysterious cardboard cut-out thriller, Paper Cut Mansion, is set to be released on 27th October 2022 for PC, Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One. PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch and PlayStation 4 versions will follow soon after.
In Paper Cut Mansion you play as Toby, a police detective arriving at the road leading to the eponymous old mansion. You will need to put those detective skills to the test as you seek to unfold the story behind this ominous place, with each run giving you the opportunity to collect another piece of evidence to be tacked on the Evidence Board.
An intriguing cast of characters will be met along your journey through the mansion and may help or hinder you: some will offer you quests that can earn you helpful rewards, some will try to hide and some have more malicious intent toward you.
In each unique run, you will unlock new abilities and discover new equipment. This will offer you the opportunity of defining your own playstyle, in addition to giving you a better chance of overcoming the challenges each procedurally generated attempt throws your way. Intrigue is further added through a dimension-hopping mechanic that lets you leap between alternate versions of the same location that switch up the aesthetics and gameplay.
“As a small team, we’ve poured a lot of blood, sweat and tears into Paper Cut Mansion,” said Space Lizard Studios’ Gabriele Caruso. “So nothing makes me more excited than finally getting to see that effort pay off when players get their hands on it on 27th October on PC and Xbox, and very soon after that on PlayStation and Switch.”

“The team over at PeDePe is producing an incredibly exciting and ambitious title” said Maarten Janello, Product Manager at Aerosoft. “We have been following the development of City Bus Manager closely from day one, and the scope of the project is fascinating – we cannot wait to see what players will get up to once they jump in!”
Join Creative Director Mike Skupa as he deep-dives into what makes The Chant a cosmic horror action-adventure game you don’t want to miss when it launches this fall. The Chant will be available on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC on Nov. 3, 2022.
What is The Chant? We’ve met the enigmatic and colorful cast of characters, explored the nooks and crannies of Glory Island, and looked back at the retreat’s cult origins… but how will you interact with these elements when playing the game?
After a ritual goes wrong at a remote spiritual retreat, a force called The Gloom spreads throughout the island to feed off negative energy. You must fight, avoid, and harness this supernatural threat as it drives everyone to madness.
The Chant has a compact, dense world that encourages players to navigate different locations to uncover resources and collectibles while bringing to life the past of the former inhabitants of this interconnected island.
Balance is key to survival:
Mind, Body, and Spirit are indispensable to your well-being. The actions you take influence the balance between them and determine how the story of The Chant concludes.
Collect, craft, and unlock the mysteries of the past while surviving the various threats both in and out of The Gloom.
Fight or flight is crucial to survival as you balance resources, spiritual weapons, and abilities against the creatures and cultists that emerge from The Gloom.
“Today’s gameplay video for The Chant explains how we’ve combined survival, action, and exploration mechanics to create a distinct cult cosmic horror experience,” said Mike Skupa, Creative Director. “As we walk you through some different areas of Glory Island, discover how the Mind, Body, and Spirit system impacts both the moment-to-moment action and how the story unfolds.”
Welcome to your spiritual nightmare:
The Chant is a cosmic horror action-adventure game developed by Brass Token and published by Prime Matter. Pre-orders are already live. Pre-order bonuses include a 1970s-themed in-game VFX filter mode and an exclusive 1970s-inspired spiritual retreat outfit. The Chant will launch on Nov. 3, 2022, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and PC (MSRP $39.99).
