Paying homage to the classic Resident Evil Outbreak games, Outbreak: The New Nightmare is the first fully 3D title in Dead Drop Studios’ Outbreak series – and the sequel to Outbreak (released in 2017). Prepare yourself for an unforgiving survival horror experience that’s seldom seen today as you scavenge for supplies, explore environments with multiple characters (each with their own attributes), and struggle to survive against the undead – now more horrifying than ever!
“Retro survival horror games don’t really get made any more. The recent Resident Evil 2 and Resident Evil 3 remakes are the closest we’ve come. Games like Resident Evil: Outbreak weren’t made at all … at least not until now! I happen to love retro/classic games and survival horror games in particular, so I knew there was a market for this type of unforgiving, hard-as-nails experience. That’s the genesis of the first Outbreak (originally a top-down 2D game) and now Outbreak: The New Nightmare.”
– Evan Wolbach (Founder, Dead Drop Studios)
Outbreak: The New Nightmare has been massively updated since its original Steam release. New features include:
Local split-screen co-op (vertical or horizontal)
Huge performance and graphics improvements (FPS, memory usage, real-time shadows and lighting, volumetric lighting, and more)
New scenarios/game content
New characters (Elena and Hank)
Nightmare difficulty mode
Radical weapon rebalancing (handguns/shotguns heavily buffed, random enemy spawns extremely reduced on Normal and Hard modes, hit detection from enemies greatly improved – and power weapons spawn in much earlier waves in Onslaught mode)
Improved animations
New weapon (DMR)
Enemy pathfinding/AI improvements (e.g., enemies don’t attack through doors – opening them instead)
Outbreak: The New Nightmare is now available on PS4 for $12.99.

Developed and published by Spokko, The Witcher: Monster Slayer takes place before the events of The Witcher series of games. Monsters are freely roaming the land in great numbers, and the relatively new role of ‘witcher’ has become indispensable around the Continent. Monster Slayer challenges players to become elite monster hunters, using advanced augmented reality features that transform the real world into the dark fantasy realm of The Witcher.
Featuring console-grade visuals, Monster Slayer lets players explore the world around them while tracking, studying, and fighting monsters both new and familiar, using time of day and real-life weather conditions to gain the upper hand. Preparation is key in order to defeat tougher enemies, as players will need to brew powerful potions and oils, craft bombs and monster bait, and upgrade their character before putting these beasts to the sword and signs in first-person AR combat. In addition to battling monsters lurking close-by, the game also contains rich, story-driven quests inspired by other games from the series, taking players on full-fledged adventures that thrust them into the heart of what it means to be a professional monster slayer.
The Witcher: Monster Slayer is coming to iOS and Android, with launch dates for both versions set to be revealed later this year. For more information, please visit the official The Witcher: Monster Slayer website, and follow the game on Facebook and Twitter.

As the world continues to cope with a deadly pandemic, we struggle to find some sense of a ‘new normal’ and ways to combat the boredom of spending all, or a good part of our time at home. In a possible silver lining to the situation, artists and producers have begun to stretch their boundaries to create new and innovative entertainment, and the team at The Dark Zone Network is leading the pack!
Following the smash success of the first-of-its-kind live streaming event at the real Conjuring House, The Dark Zone Network is now proud to present a brand new worldwide interactive live streaming event starting August 28th from the notorious double murder scene, The Lizzie Borden House in Fall River, Massachusetts.
It was August 4, 1892 when the hacked-up bodies of Abby and Andrew Borden were discovered in the family home. The number one suspect? Their 32 year-old spinster daughter, Lizzie. Yet, she was brought to trial and acquitted by an all-male jury in unanimous agreement that a woman surely could not be capable of murder!
No one back then could have predicted the worldwide and enduring fascination with this as yet ‘unsolved’ cold case making it the most famous crime in America, second in the entire world only to the infamous Jack the Ripper murders in London, England.
The double murder of Lizzie Borden’s parents, Andrew and Abby seems to have stirred the spirits into great unrest, leaving The Lizzie Borden House perpetually occupied by roaming ghosts which, depending on the individual, frighten and delight guests of the now entitled Lizzie Borden B and B. Could it be the spirits are trying to tell us something? Are they restless because the crime is, to this day, officially unsolved?
“The Lizzie Borden Murder House” will be a 24-hour, 4-day-long live streaming immersive experience investigating not only the crime in search of answers, but also fully investigating the active haunting and anomalous activity of the location. With guests from television psychic Chris Fleming, to real Scotland Yard Homicide Inspector, Colin Taylor, we and our audience will try and get to the bottom of who really committed the evil acts and why the spirits are still so restless in the Borden House. The show will present never before seen evidence and take a closer look at the four other possible suspects. Who knows, maybe the ghosts will tell us whodunit!
The murder house will be set up with multiple cameras providing the audience with a completely immersive experience. Viewers will be an active part of investigations and all the activities that will be employed to connect with the spirits to uncover the truth. Audience members have a bird’s eye view to seances, Ouija board sessions and other live on-scene investigations and paranormal experiments, while adding their own input in the chat room feature. They’ll also be treated to appearances by some of the most well-known and respected luminaries in the paranormal and crime communities who will pop in remotely to share their most bone chilling experiences, analyses and evidence from the brutal murders.
“The Lizzie Borden Murder House” offers a global broadcast which gives our worldwide audience the opportunity to interact with each other and to act as remote ghost hunters and crime solvers. The feed runs 24 hours a day, enabling viewers to monitor multiple cameras looking for strange anomalies and share their potential evidence.
“The Lizzie Borden Murder House” can be viewed exclusively on the world’s first and only paranormal themed OTT platform, The Dark Zone Network (thedarkzone.tv). The Dark Zone Network is a one stop shop for all things paranormal. In addition to being the premiere hub for paranormal themed content, it’s also a community where enthusiasts from all over the world can congregate. DZ is first in the world to provide a global audience with unprecedented real time access.
In these times, it’s more important than ever to stay connected and “The Lizzie Borden Murder House” is an opportunity to join a worldwide paranormal and crime solving community. This is an event you won’t want to miss. The 24-hour, 4-day event runs from August 28th – August 31st. There will be a free preview, Thursday, August 27th at 8pm ET. For full access to the 4-day broadcast, the cost is $19.99.
