Take an exclusive first-look at the game’s surgery section
London, UK – December 16 2024 – Super Rare Games and developers CH757 and Key have unveiled a new trailer for their upcoming Psychological Horror title Monster DNA – offering an exclusive new look at the surgery section of the game.
The newly-showcased surgery section is an essential area in Monster DNA, where the player ensures every monster is not only visually impressive but also built to last from within – treating and implanting healthy, functional organs to prepare them for their violent futures. To elevate their capabilities, each monster is provided with a custom heart. These unique hearts grant specialized skills or abilities, amplifying their overall brutality.
The trailer was shown off during this year’s The Horror Game Awards. Founded in 2022, The Horror Game Awards celebrates horror as “one of the best genres in video games”, and recognises the year’s greatest horror games alongside the developers who make them.
Monster DNA is a single-player psychological horror game where you create deadly monsters and abominations for mysterious clients. But beware… your work might be the death of you. In this twisted lab, survival depends on your wits. One wrong move, and you could perish to your own creations.
In this fully immersive single-player experience, each and every playthrough has its own unpredictable tension, as you fight to avoid falling prey to your own creations. To add to the horror, you will be constantly working to meet each client’s unique challenges and motivations – keeping you on your toes at every step of your monster-birthing journey.
Features:
- Diverse Creations: Discover over 30 unique monsters, each with different combinations of traits and abilities.
- Extensive Modification: Take control of your creations with body modification options. Alter both their appearance and abilities to make sure your clients are getting what they pay for.
- Stay Alert: Keep your monsters under control using the safety precautions; or your own creation could be your demise.
- Varied Playthrough: Each session offers different client demands, challenging you to adapt your strategy to satisfy each new request.
- Bigger Than Ever: Monster DNA will be greatly improved over the original itch.io release – including all-new content and game mechanics
Monster DNA will be launching for PC in 2025. In the meantime, you can download the demo on Steam right now!

About CH757 and Key
CH757 and Key form the creative duo behind Monster DNA. They had previously collaborated together on Fred’s Cereal Company and Billy’s Game Show, both known for their unique, freaky horror style. Monster DNA was born from a simple question: “Where do all those horror game monsters come from?” With a high demand for monsters, they envisioned a company responsible for creating and supplying them. The project began as a 2D game, as creating and merging monsters seemed more possible in that format. However, it eventually evolved into the 3D version known today. The game’s visuals are inspired by Monsters, Inc., That’s Not My Neighbor, and a touch of Rick and Morty, blending dark humor with distinctive freaky monster designs.
