With exploration horror adventure games enjoying a current rich vein of form, along comes Kholat, a compelling narrative horror adventure game developed by IMGN.PRO. Kholat is narrated by Sean Bean and is inspired by the tragic true events of the Dyatlov Pass incident of 1959. The event back in 1959 led to the deaths of nine hikers deep in the northern Ural Mountains and if the game needed more drama, the very definition of the place the game takes place, Kholat Syakhl literally means ‘Dead Mountain’.
Angela Qustandi for SG: "I don’t know how it’s possible, but I love and hate this game all at once."
Red Art Games is pleased to announce that online pre-order for the physical boxed version of "Kholat" on Nintendo Switch are available now, with a limited edition of 3800 copies with a price of €29.99/£27/$35.
Kholat has its niche but many tempted to take the plunge will be disappointed due to the game’s frustratingly repetitive and hollow gameplay experience.
