Bokeh Game Studio Unleashes Bloody, Body-hopping, Horror Action Game, Slitterhead, on PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X|S, and Windows PC

The Neon Drenched Streets of Kowlong Unleash Body Horror and Terrifying Mysteries in Legendary Creator Keiichiro Toyama’s Latest Nightmare

TOKYO, — Nov. 8, 2024 — Bokeh Game Studio, founded by legendary developer Keiichiro Toyama in 2020, today released the company’s first title, action-horror game Slitterhead, PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S and Windows PC via Epic Game Store and Steam. The title is available on all platforms digitally for $49.99, and with PS5™ Day 1 Edition in North America distributed by XSEED Games for $59.99. Slitterhead launches with support for the just-launched PlayStation®5 Pro, delivering visual enhancements including improved resolutions and visual effects. Stalk the streets of Kowlong as bodiless entity Hyoki, inhabiting human and animal bodies to traverse the streets and engage in blood-drenched combat while unraveling the mystery of the Slitterheads.

It is incredibly challenging to create a new studio and game, and we faced no shortage of unexpected obstacles throughout development. Our team looked this challenge in the face and have persevered, and we feel a sense of joy that we can present this game to fans,” said Bokeh Game Studio Founder and Creator Keiichiro Toyama. “We don’t view Slitterhead as a traditional blockbuster action game or horror title, like Hyoki it defies easy comparisons. We hope fans will enjoy the possession mechanics and action combat as they explore Kowlong and get to know its complex residents. The story has many unexpected twists and terrifying scenarios that we hope players will face head on and without hesitation.”

I must eliminate them…ALL… Set in the densely cluttered streets of Kowlong, filled with obscurity and chaos, this battle action-adventure game casts players as the “Hyoki,” an entity devoid of memory and physical form. His only motive is to eradicate the monstrous beings known as “Slitterheads” crawling around the city, disguising themselves as humans. Roaming the vibrant neon-lit cityscape, Hyoki must seek out allies among humans known as “Rarities,” infiltrate and track dangerous organizations, and engage in battles harnessing the power of blood. As the suspenseful drama unfolds, delve into the mystery behind Hyoki’s existence and the appearance of the Slitterheads.

KEY FEATURES

  • Bodiless “Hyoki” Exposes the Demons Nesting in the Pleasure District: The entity called “Hyoki” finds himself wandering amidst the chaos of Kowlong, plagued by the enigmatic monsters known as “Slitterheads” which mimic humans. Though bereft of all memories, he holds one resolute intention: to eradicate every last Slitterhead. Infiltrating the city, he sets out on a mission to hunt down the Slitterheads masquerading within human society; not knowing that his journey will delve into the mysteries beyond the existence of both himself and the Slitterheads.
  • Possession-based High Speed Action: Devoid of physical form, Hyoki’s ability allows him to possess and control human bodies at will, turning the people wandering the city into his pawns. With this power he can slip through barriers, assume the identity of specific individuals, and infiltrate dangerous areas and organizations. By rapidly switching hosts, he can also traverse the city at high speed or overwhelm an enemy without regard for human life.
  • Thrilling Combat Using the Power of Blood: While human bodies are fragile, Hyoki can burn their life force, turning blood into weapons to confront the ferocious Slitterheads. Even when critically wounded, he can continue fighting by switching hosts efficiently. By possessing “Rarities”, specific humans who share high sync with Hyoki, he is able to unleash even more powerful attacks and activate various abilities. The cooperative relationship with these “Rarities” holds the key to uncovering the deepening mysteries in the city of Kowlong.

Slitterhead is developed and published digitally on PS4™PS5™, Xbox Series X|S, and Windows PC via Epic Game Store and Steam by Bokeh Game Studio and released on Nov. 8, 2024. The title is available digitally for $49.99, and as a physical PS5™ Day 1 Edition in North America distributed by XSEED Games with a MSRP of $59.99, including a physical copy of the game, a CD of original songs from the game composed by Akira Yamaoka, an artbook with over 100 pages filled with gruesome details, and a sticker sheet, all housed within a custom outer box. This title has been rated M for “Mature” by the ESRB.

Sengoku Dynasty Version 1.0 Launches on PC

Open world multi-genre game set in Feudal Japan Brings Japan’s tumultuous Past to Life with Single Player and Co-op Adventures

Oberhaching, Germany, November 8th 2024 –  Developer Superkami and publisher Toplitz Productions are excited to announce that their multi genre open-world village builder, life simulation and survival game Sengoku Dynasty Version 1.0 is now available on PC.

After just over a year in early access, and with several defining content updates under its belt, the immersive world of medieval Japan is brought to life in stunning detail. 

PC players can now embark on their own legacy in single player or with up to three of their friends in multiplayer in the co-op mode as they begin to create their own dynasty set in feudal Japan’s tumultuous past. 

With the release of version 1.0, Sengoku Dynasty introduces significant new features, including regions you can conquer to secure your rise to dominance. Face more dangerous bandits and their camps as you fight for control – now also in FPP. Players also have the option to skip the battles and focus on unlocking new regions through peaceful means and securing access to rare resources to unlock unique technologies, propelling their dynasty forward. This system offers deeper immersion into feudal Japan’s constant territorial struggles, providing players with dynamic regional control. While combat and conquest enhance progression.

A character editor and playable female character also round out the new customization content now available for players. 

Combining its rich blend of survival, crafting and exploration, PC players will need to set about transforming a famine-stricken and war-torn land and building a settlement where its inhabitants can thrive. Resources such as bamboo, wood, ore and stone will be key materials in construction. Not only that, but these resources will also provide the raw materials to develop the farming tools and weapons they need such as bows and even katanas, essential for protecting their communities from the bandits that roam the countryside.

Sengoku Dynasty has been a labor of love for Superkami which has maintained a priority to ensure a realistic and faithful representation of the historical context of 16th century Japan from traditional craftsmanship, weapons and fabrics, to buildings, architecture and customs through extensive development research.

Players will have the opportunity to undertake the foundation of traditional subsistence and resource-based economies, all of which are integral to Sengoku Dynasty’s many tasks of village management. Aspects such as mining, smithing, hunting and farming are at the core of a stable and self proficient community.

Sengoku Dynasty’s major content updates have been transformative in enhancing the gameplay experience during early access, refining player progression, improving AI, daily village production and consumption balancing, expanding farming options as well as introducing an intuitive combat system.

Jan Cieslar, CEO of Superkami, comments “We are grateful for Sengoku Dynasty’s time in Early Access and all the feedback we’ve received from our community. You’ve helped shape the game into what it is today. We’re excited about Sengoku Dynasty’s future—there’s still much to come in 2025, including console ports that will bring the game to new players for the first time.”

Sengoku Dynasty provides PC players with a choice to build their legacy from the ground up, choosing to embrace the lifestyle of either a monk, leader, craftsman or warrior and use the perks of each specialization as they forge their dynasty and honor the traditions of Japan’s historic past.

For more details on Sengoku Dynasty players can visit the games official Steam page here.

Superkami and Toplitz Productions will reveal more about its plans for Sengoku Dynasty on console in early 2025.
