THE HAND HUNTS. THE ABYSS WAITS. LOSTBOUND LAUNCHES OCTOBER 6

0

Escape a world that crumbles behind you in Tenkarider’s dark roguelite action RPG, coming to PC via Steam this October

MILAN, ITALY – September 23, 2026. Indie developer Tenkarider and publisher Tambù Digital today announce that Lostbound, the dark roguelite action RPG where the world itself disappears behind you, will launch on PC via Steam on October 6, 2026.

A mysterious force of darkness relentlessly pursues players through a world of retro-inspired exploration, dangerous dungeons and constantly changing paths. Every decision matters as players search for powerful Artifacts, discover new routes and push deeper into the unknown, knowing that everything behind them could soon be gone.

But players aren’t simply racing against time. The Hand is hunting them.

THE HAND IS ALWAYS BEHIND YOU

In Lostbound, exploration comes with a unique risk. The more players move through the world, the more it begins to crumble in their wake, with previously explored paths disappearing as The Hand advances.

Players must constantly decide where to go next, balancing exploration against the need to stay ahead of their relentless pursuer. Push too far and risk losing the route home, or turn back while there’s still a way out.

The world is also filled with hidden Artifacts, giving players new opportunities to develop their character and adapt their approach with every run.

DESCEND INTO THE DUNGEONS

Lostbound’s dungeons offer a different challenge, filled with enemies, traps, secrets and rewards to discover.

Time remains a critical resource as players venture deeper into the darkness. Finding the right balance between exploration and survival is essential, particularly as night approaches and The Hand closes in.

Every run presents new opportunities, new dangers and new decisions to make.

NO TWO JOURNEYS ARE THE SAME

Lostbound combines retro-inspired adventure exploration with roguelite progression, creating a world that changes with every attempt.

Artifacts are randomly scattered throughout the world, encouraging players to experiment with different approaches and builds. Failure isn’t the end of the journey – each run offers the opportunity to learn, adapt and return stronger.

But the further players venture, the greater the risk. 

KEY FEATURES

  • The Hand Hunts – Stay ahead of a relentless force of darkness that destroys the world behind you.
  • A World That Crumbles – Paths disappear as you explore, forcing you to constantly rethink your route.
  • Hunt for Artifacts – Discover randomly placed Artifacts and experiment with different builds every run.
  • Dark Dungeons – Explore dangerous dungeons packed with enemies, traps, secrets and rewards.
  • Race Against Time – Manage your route and resources carefully as night, and The Hand, approach.
  • Adapt and Survive – Learn from every run, develop your character and return with a new strategy.
  • Retro-Inspired Exploration – Discover a dark, nonlinear world inspired by classic adventure RPGs.

Lostbound launches on PC via Steam on October 6, 2026.

Players can play the free Lostbound demo now, offering a first taste of its world, exploration, dungeons and the ever-present threat of The Hand.

Play the demo, wishlist Lostbound on Steam and get ready to escape the Abyss when the full game launches October 6.

Lo-Fi Survival Horror Cult Classic, Heartworm, Launching on Xbox X|S, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch and Switch 2 on Oct. 1

0

The psychological horror golden era of the 90s, now on your preferred console platform

LOS ANGELES (Sept. 23, 2026) Vincent Adinolfi’s Heartworm made a killer splash when it launched on PC in 2025 to rave fan reviews, and at the start of spooky season, horror maestros at DreadXP drop the highly anticipated console version of Heartworm on Oct. 1 on Xbox X|S, PlayStation 4, PlayStation 5, Nintendo Switch and Switch 2. 

Catch a glimpse of what’s to come on consoles in today’s trailer:

In Heartworm, players are invited to step into a world where memories and mourning blur the lines between reality and supernatural visions. Follow Sam, a young woman overcome with grief after the passing of her beloved grandfather as her quest for closure leads her into a deep rabbit hole of online forums – and ultimately to a remote haunted house up in the mountains.  What begins as a desperate attempt to reconnect with the past quickly spirals into something more sinister and inexplicable, as she pushes deeper into the unknown armed with only a camera and her determination to venture further.

Blending the spirit of the survival horror classics like Resident Evil and Silent Hill with modern gameplay options, Heartworm tells a deeply personal story through pre-rendered and in-game cutscenes, classic and mind-bending puzzle-solving and limited but meaningful tense combat using a camera as your weapon to fend off what lies ahead. 

Featuring optional tank controls, PSX-style visuals, and retro effects, you can tailor the experience to make it feel like it’s straight out of the late 90s, or scale back the nostalgia a little bit for a more modern experience. An original soundtrack and evocative environments guide you through 4-6 hours of exploration, tension and discovery, with multiple endings waiting on the other side. 

Enter the house. Face the other side. Uncover the truth that these mountains hide.
