Back in November 2013 Carnivore Studio unveiled Kodoku, a horror title centred around Japanese folklore that would be releasing on PS4 & Vita.
Since that reveal the studio has been incredibly quiet about the game, with almost no information released in 2014.
That silence was broken today as the first look at Kodoku’s gameplay was released on Carnivore Studio’s site.
This year, fans of horror have a number of great games to look forward to on PC and consoles. That’s why we’ve listed some of the games we think you should be looking forward to.
Silent Hill, no.
Silent HILLS by Kojima and Del Toro, yes. I suppose Konami will now attemp to copy some of the ideas for the next SH game, but what was potentially the best horror game to come out this year is forever lost to gamers' memories.
I am so glad I have it saved on my PS4!!!
That is one game that will NEVER get deleted.
As long as you backup your PS4, you can restore from the backup and still keep P.T. I've done it.
I swapped out my 750GB drive for a 2TB drive and I still have P.T.
That headline picture looks dope! Then I watched the trailer and was disappointed... I'm not liking how the horror genre has become a walking simulator factory. Where is condemned, fear, resident evil, silent hill?
I absolutely love until dawn, I liked soma and outlast 2 looks interesting but I want horror with gameplay! Enough with the hiding!
Most horror games nowadays are the same, relying on jump scares or defenseless running away from something. What happened to creating a horror atmosphere? Silent Hills seemed to bring that back but it was scrapped :/
I remember hearing of Kodoku and Routine a long while back. The artwork in Kodoku looks absolutely amazing but I was a little worried of the the gameplay which showed some animation problems bust nothing that cant be changed later.
I am still hyped for Routine even though they have remained silent for so long. The gameplay trailer has me absolutely sold.
You’ll need to explore an abandoned island that is haunted by the ghosts of Japanese mythology in this survival horror game.
Literally never heard of this until now. Thanks for bringing it to my attention.
Derrick of Gamer Assault Weekly takes a look at 20 new and upcoming releases for the PS Vita.
Looks like a great list, I don't own a Vita because I didn't feel there were enough games to warrant having one but this looks like a fun line up
The Vita has a HUGE lineup. If they stopped making games for it right now I would be good for the next 5 years. LOL!
- People That DON'T Own a Vita: Where are the games?"
- People That DO Own A Vita: "There are too many games!"
The Vita is perfect for people who like RPGs and indie titles. There are so many really fun RPGs on there and indies love the Vita.
I like RPG's but there isn't a good variety of RPG's on the Vita. Love my Vita, but I wish there were more games that appealed to me.
* I'd rather have a generic sword guy main character as opposed to a female in a skirt with huge boobs.
I Get/understand it, but that doesn't really get me wanting to play a game more.
The thing is, I really like the art styles in a lot of those games, but the characters just don't appeal to me in any way.
Here are some games to look into. For now and later. Also, check out all the digital games on PSN. SOOOO much goodness on there too.
NOW:
- Persona 4: Golden
- Y's Memories of Celceta
- Sword Art Online: Hollow Fragment
- Disgaea 4: A Promise Revisited
- Final Fantasy X/X2 HD
COMING SOON:
- Oreshika: Tainted Bloodlines
- Freedom Wars
- Tales of Hearts R
Actually the 3DS is perfect for people who love rpg's. I regret buying a Vita because I love rpg's and wish I could play Bravely Default.
3ds has some jrpgs like bravely default that you mention and maybe 1-2 other games that would be of interest to jrpg players, but in the end unless you enjoy games like mario or games aimed at children, you will end up with very few games of interest.
vita just needs to get more "normal" jrpgs, which might happen since it's doing alot better in japan, although for bravely default you will probably need a 3ds either way, so you might want consider buying a used 3ds.
Whixian and TongkatAli,
You're both delusional.
3ds: Dragon Quest VII, Shin Megami Tensei IV, Fire Emblem: Awakening, Persona Q, and more coming.
And a whole slew of other titles that are NOT aimed at children.
What in the hell does Vita have in the JRPG genre that is worth playing besides Persona 4? The Vita is failure but you Sony diehards cannot even accept that.
Why are you raging ? I just said I don't like chibi style graphics for RPG's I didn't say it was kiddie. YS Memories of Celceta, FF X, Sword Art Online and more to come.
Hey! You don't like it, trade it in and get yourself a 3DS and play those rpgs where the characters look like toddler's.
I would have to disagree. Yes, Bravely Default is great and I do enjoy my 3DS, but the Vita has just blown me away with incredible JRPGS. The 3DS just can't really compare to the quality of the Vita system itself or the lineup of games. I'm happy to have both becasue they both have great exclusives.
only 3 games in that list that interest me, Neptunia Rebirth, Dagganrompa and Suikoden 2 which is not confirmed and, if it comes, it'll probably be as a psone classic not a remaster with trophies... I hope Neptunia rebirth 2 and Corpse Party 3 get localized
At the moment, I have like 7 physical Vita games alone that I still plan to pick up. I wasn't paying too much attention to what all was coming out for it, but this year has been especially awesome for Vita releases. Just wish we would see Dissidia 3 on there at some point...
I love it so far. Great original character design and if the girl is proof of what monsters we'll see, I'll have high hopes. The animation for movement is a little bit choppy however.
Potential if done right
Silent Hills... Sorry, I'm still in mourning.
Wow. Love the art! I will pre-order it as soon as it's available on PSN.
