DreadXP — an independent horror publisher and production company — has announced via occult channels that the latest sequel to its anthology horror video game series, Dread X Collection 5, is available now for Windows PC. Dread X Collection 5 features 12 delightfully twisted short-form nightmares from the creators of such indie hits as 0°N 0°W, Lakeview Cabin, Sylvio, and The Mortuary Assistant.
Based on the theme of “entertainment,” Dread X Collection 5 invites players to a devilish party that is literally to die for! Players must explore terrifying locales like haunted nightclubs, dark carnivals, haunted puppet shows, the country Finland in the year 1888, a karaoke bar toilet, and so much more!
Each included game in the collection features unique gameplay mechanics and art style, and is accessible from within Dread X Collection 5’s hub world called Outpost 3000 — an alien-themed party venue that houses something truly sinister. Dread X Collection 5 also further expands the meta-narrative that ties the Dread X Collection games together.
“We’re so excited to launch the fifth entry of the Dread X Collection series following a year of fans anxiously awaiting its arrival,” said Abbey “Scruncho” Smith, assistant producer at DreadXP. “The series’ much-anticipated return is a true celebration — a party, if you will — that’s quite literally out of this world. Its hosts, our legion of dreadful indie devs, have some frightening festivities in store!”
Dread X Collection 5 Key Features:
- Variety Screamer: With twelve chilling horror shorts wholly unique from one another, there’s something for everyone in Dread X Collection 5. From first and third-person shooters, puzzles, text-based adventures, arcade-style games, to tabletops
- Dread Head: DreadXP regular Michaela Laws, who voiced Ln’eta in the hit Lovecraftian dating sim Sucker for Love, co-stars along with Jans Holstrom as Dread X Collection 5‘s mysterious (and monstrous) antagonist
- Putrid Panels: An unfolding narrative told through comic book-style illustrations, featuring the returning talents of independent horror artist October Keegan, who contributed unlockable comic pages to Dread X Collection 2
