Explore abandoned places or command your partner from the control van in this horrifying and hilarious co-op creepfest
Monster Boy and the Cursed Kingdom and Otherskin developer Game Atelier have just shown off the latest trailer for their upcoming asymmetrical horror game Follow Us during the Midsummer Night’s Scream horror showcase. Launching June 5th on Steam Early Access, Follow Us is a hilarious and horrifying relationship stress test, one player explores a spooky environment, while another guides them remotely from the van, trying to keep their partner alive.
Each round of Follow Us begins with players choosing between two roles:
- The Explorer (EXY): Bravely navigate a deadly, haunted environment
- The Operator (OPY): Hang back safe in the van, hacking the playspace to protect their partner
Built on communication rather than complex mechanics, Follow Us creates tension by combining two different things: isolation and connection. Expect panic, shouting, and miscommunication. One wrong call can get your partner killed, and yes, it will probably be your fault. Every mission plays with fear in a different way… but they all end the same way: shared panic, bad decisions, and laughter. Using lo-fi chunky PSone-inspired graphics, everything in Follow Us aims for a clean, immediately legible aesthetic so anyone can hop right into the action and understand its horrific hijinks!
