The survival horror genre is getting a fresh dose of terror with the release of Post Trauma on March 31st.  Available for PC, PS5, and Xbox Series X, this highly anticipated title promises a chilling experience reminiscent of classic survival horror games.

First announced in 2021, Post Trauma draws inspiration from iconic titles like Resident Evil and Silent Hill.  After several delays, fans eager to delve into this terrifying world can finally mark their calendars.

A recent trailer showcased at The Game Awards 2022 offered a glimpse into the game's unsettling atmosphere and dread-inducing environments. Utilizing fixed camera angles, a hallmark of the genre, players will navigate a series of disturbing locations and confront grotesque monsters.

True to its survival horror roots, Post Trauma features challenging puzzles that players must solve to survive.  The game's mechanics and atmosphere are designed to appeal to fans of classic survival horror experiences, particularly those who enjoyed the original Resident Evil and Silent Hill games on PS1.

The narrative of Post Trauma also takes cues from classic survival horror, with Silent Hill serving as a notable inspiration.  Players will explore a surreal dimension, reminiscent of Silent Hill's Otherworld, a distorted version of reality filled with untold horrors.

Post Trauma's March 31st release marks an exciting time for horror game enthusiasts.  While other titles like Killing Floor 3 (releasing March 25th) offer a more action-oriented horror experience, Post Trauma focuses on delivering a classic survival horror vibe.

Console players can also anticipate the release of Sorry We're Closed on March 6th, adding another layer of excitement to the horror gaming landscape.
