Taking place as its name suggests before the events of Daymare: 1998this action-horror game inspired by Resident Evil puts us in control of special agent Dalila Reyes, a former government spy now in the service of the elite unit HADES (Hexacore Advanced Division for Extraction and Search ), whose mission is to explore the depths of the most advanced (and fearsome) research facility in the United States of America.
A center obviously infested with Decoys, creatures born of who knows what military experience, but whose destiny is to end up vaporized by Delilah’s arsenal, in particular his Frost Grip, an experimental weapon that explodes liquid nitrogen . Given the inspiration of the developers, environmental puzzles and inventory management are also on the menu. The interface has also been completely redesigned to be simpler and more intuitive, we are told. Exactly the kind of promise that the demo will verify.
“Like its predecessor, Daymare: 1994 Sandcastle is a tribute to iconic horror films and video games of the 90s. This prequel improves Daymare: 1998 on almost every level, with improved character animations, beautiful cutscenes and bosses that require strategy and experience. Get ready to see your favorite zombie movies and old school video games come to life“, comments Daniele Falcone of Leonardo Interactive. Daymare: 1994 Sandcastle is expected in 2022 on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series, Xbox One, Switch and PC.
