Outer Terror

In Outer Terror, you'll choose from 10 unique survivors each with their own persona-tied weapons and special skill attacks to rage through relentless waves of otherworldly terrors. Whether playing solo or co-op, each playthrough of Outer Terror will give players a different experience with randomized weapons and upgrade choices, enemy patterns, and areas of the map. You thought that safe zone would be in the same spot as last time? Think again; you'll have to slaughter your way through enemies to find it with each playthrough.

  • Pixelated bullet hell-styled chaos: Combine weapons and automatically fire as you wade through unrelenting waves of enemies (best keep moving, though, or you might go splat).
  • An S+ class/B movie-styled cast: Choose from 10 survivors reminiscent of classic horror protagonists. Find out how they survived, level up their attributes, and teach them new skills to make enemies go splat.
  • Multiple game modes: Choose from solo story mode, completing side quests and going at it alone, or playing with a buddy in co-op.
  • A constant gorefest: Roguelite elements make each playthrough its own bloody adventure with randomized weapon buff pick-ups, upgrade options, maps, and even enemy paths.
  • A classic throwback: Play through five volumes of stories inspired by classic horror comics and films with boss battles tearing straight out of a Lovecraftian yarn.
