Cuphead’s classic animation style, with the environmental horror of Outlast/Resident Evil 7, and the intriguing story/world of Bioshock? If this video game cocktail has piqued your curiosity, then Bendy and the Ink Machine deserves your attention.
"Silver Lining Interactive, in partnership with Joey Drew Studios, are today very happy to announce that the Bendy Double Pack - featuring Bendy and the Ink Machine and Bendy and the Dark Revival - will launch on May 29th 2026, for the PS5 and Nintendo Switch." - Silver Lining Interactive and Joey Drew Studios.
The Epic Games Store continues the Halloween season with two more free titles.
VGChartz's Lee Mehr: "From the top of his sharpened horns to the soles of his feet, Bendy is an inspired analogue of Mickey Mouse with – ironically – a similar marketing function in mind; likewise, Ink Machine ultimately serves as a pastiche of other horror templates. The reason the former finds greater success than the latter comes down to one thing: focus. By hastily tracing so many personalities, and oftentimes whipping between them at Mach speed, there's less time (and less reason) to understand why that gimmick or design ethos made the experience so engaging to begin with. It's clear (real-life) Joey Drew Studios has the ambition to build on an intriguing concept; now it just needs better craftsmanship."
