Holstin Is A Survival Horror Game Set In The '90s With A Unique Shooter Twist

Newcomer studio Sonka has released the first-ever gameplay trailer for its horror game, Holstin. This new trailer reveals a fun twist on the game’s shooting mechanics, too, and comes alongside word that there’s a demo now available on Steam as well. 

The trailer is short, running less than a minute, but it showcases the game’s terrifying ambiance, throwback visual style, and zombie-like creatures that have seemingly infested the small 1990s Polish town Holstin is set in. It also highlights that parts of the game are playable as an isometric, third-person shooter like last year’s Signalis and as an over-the-shoulder third-person shooter like in Capcom’s recent Resident Evil remakes. 

Check out the Holstin gameplay reveal trailer for yourself below: 

“A psychological survival horror game set in an eerie, isolated 90’s Polish town consumed by an ominous presence,” the Holstin Steam page reads. “You’ve come looking for answers, but everyone seems possessed by something foul. Explore the festering town, interrogate locals, and fight ungodly manifestations to get to the truth.” 

There’s no release date in sight for Holstin, but you can try the game for yourself today through a new Holstin demo available on Steam right now. 

Holstin is set to release one day on PlayStation, Xbox, Switch, and PC.
