Death Comes Quickly. Embrace Valhalla.

New York, NY (June 6, 2024) – Don your sharpest sword and strongest shield — Volgarr is back. Retro-focused studio Digital Eclipse unveiled Volgarr the Viking II at Guerrilla Collective 2024 today with a brutal new trailer and announced the release date of August 6, 2024, for Windows PC via Steam and GOG, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 4 & 5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X|S.

Digital edition preorders are now open at digitaleclipse.com.

Watch the Volgarr the Viking II reveal trailer here:

More than a decade after Volgarr the Viking’s bloodbath of a debut from Crazy Viking Studios, which sold more than one million copies across PC and consoles, the barbarian king’s adventure continues in an uncompromising new form. Set against the backdrop of new and bigger-than-ever Norse-inspired worlds, Volgarr the Viking II ups the ante on the original’s hardcore 2D side-scrolling action in an expanded odyssey where every playthrough is grislier than the last. 

The reveal trailer teases a selection of levels and enemy encounters, underscoring just how many times you’ll die (and die again) — all while progressively learning and mastering movesets, level layouts, and enemy attacks. Volgarr the Viking II’s satisfyingly punishing torment will forge you into a true warrior, demanding precision, strategy, and an indomitable spirit to conquer the unforgiving world.

As the great warrior Volgarr, choose your actions wisely when entering battle, as precision is everything. One false move can spell a one-way ticket to Valhalla. Jump, duck, slide, and dodge to avoid deadly enemies while remaining cognizant of the threats posed by your environment. 

While the sequel delivers the same unforgiving 1980s-arcade level of difficulty as the original, Volgarr’s a little older now, his muscles have wizened, and he graciously welcomes some new features that won’t agitate the arthritis: a practice mode, checkpoints, save profiles, and unlimited continues — but at what cost? If you can survive without these modern comforts, you’ll unlock everything the game has to offer. If not… death comes knocking.

“One of our key pillars is making new games the old-fashioned way. We love and celebrate games where every pixel is hand-crafted,” said Mike Mika, Head of Digital Eclipse. “Volgarr was one of those games we couldn’t put down, no matter how hard it was. Games like this are a rare breed, and we’re happy to play a role in seeing Volgarr II realized.”

“Volgarr is known for being easy to learn, hard to master. For some, that might even be an understatement. But that design philosophy guided every aspect of development for Volgarr II,” said Kristofor Durrschmidt, CEO & Creative Director, Crazy Viking Studios. “We learned a lot from launching the original, and even with some modern updates, fans are going to love the sequel. Volgarr is still a game where, if you want the ultimate experience, you’ll need to really master what it asks of you.”

Key Features Include: 

• Stave off death with new power-ups and magic items
• A roster of ruthless bosses so big and so ugly, they’re just begging to have their heads chopped off
• An epic orchestral soundtrack to carry you through battle
• Handy speedrunning tools, including an on-screen timer and no-HUD mode
• Six distinct endings based on player performance —only the masterfully skilled will unlock a hidden level to battle a secret final boss!
• Modern era upgrades include a practice mode and multiple profile save options
• Buckets of blood and bone explosions
• Loincloths

Volgarr the Viking II brute-forces its way onto PC and consoles on August 6, 2024. For more information, visit the official website.

Physiological horror meets frightening realism in this unconventional simulator

Thursday, 6 June 2024 – Woodland Games and Team17 Digital have today released their medical-horror sim Autopsy Simulator on PC. Stepping into the shoes of a practising pathologist battling his inner demons, players can expect an unsettling atmosphere and gruesome detail as they unravel the mysteries behind each autopsy. Players who prefer slicing and dicing cadavers with a more sim approach, can do so in the Autopsy Only Mode, coming to the game later this year. 

Autopsy Simulator will see players study realistic case files, created in collaboration with real-world forensic practitioners, to help guide their examinations and dissections. Utilising medically authentic tools and procedures, players will learn all they can about the deceased before solving the mystery of their deaths.

In Dead Memories, Autopsy Simulator’s standalone story mode, experience the haunting tale of Jack Hanman and journey through the psychological horror as Jack faces his demons. The story mode offers a unique combination of simulation and horror narrative, with engrossing autopsy mechanics and spine-chilling developments.

Autopsy Simulator Features: 

• Gruesome anatomical detail and medically certified autopsy procedures: Dissect anatomically accurate bodies using a range of autopsy procedures and tools authentic to real-world practice.
• Realistic true crime scenarios: Study a range of case files designed by real-life pathomorphologists and forensic doctors, then use what you learn to guide each autopsy.

“We are thrilled for players to experience this rather unusual simulator,” said Paweł Kozakowski, CEO of Woodland Games. “With Autopsy Simulator, we’ve crafted a true to life yet chilling experience that immerses players in the grim reality of forensic investigation. From the cold, sterile rooms of the morgue to the unsettling sights and sounds of the autopsy table, every moment is designed to evoke a sense of dread and fascination. Prepare to delve into the darkest recesses of the human body and mind.”
