Asymmetric Horror Title Forest Hills: The Last Year Teams Up with Indie Horror Darling Troma Entertainment

Undaunted Games :

Montreal, Quebec, Canada - 3/21/2024 - Undaunted Games is pleased to announce that Forest Hills: The Last Year ™ will be collaborating with legendary horror icon Troma Entertainment. The studio behind iconic cult classic horror films, including The Toxic Avenger, Class of Nuke ‘Em High, and Tromeo and Juliet, will be working with Undaunted Games to add a themed map, Displaced, environmental objects, and a special Fiend inspired by Troma Entertainment Films. The partnership will also include new classes, including one where players can turn into the heroic Toxie from The Toxic Avenger.

“Troma is one of the most iconic names in horror, and we’re honored to be able to bring their surreal cast of characters into Forest Hills: The Last Year,” said Mark Waterworth, Creative Director. “In expanding Forest Hills, we have a lot of real estate to bring in crossovers from across the horror universe - and maybe even beyond. We have plenty of future partnerships coming down the line that we can’t wait to share, so stay tuned!”

"Toxie and I could not be more excited to be partnering with Undaunted Games as they expand the fan-favorite Last Year universe with Forest Hill: The Last Year," said Lloyd Kaufman, President of Troma Entertainment & Creator of the Toxic Avenger. "Undaunted Games embodies the commitment to independent art and renegade spirit that’s been Troma’s Passion and smoked meat for half a century. We can’t wait to see what kind of poutine this young (but mighty) company makes with Toxie and his friends. Alors, let’s play!"

On top of sharing more information about their partnership with Troma Entertainment, Undaunted Games will be unveiling a new cemetery-themed map and their latest Fiend, the Warlock. The new magic-themed killer uses shadow and flame magic to destroy unsuspecting Displaced. PAX East attendees can explore the new map and test their survival skills against the Wizard by playing the new demo. 

In Forest Hills: The Last Year, you’ll fight for your life in a fast-paced 5v1 asymmetric horror play. Players will take on the role of the Displaced, a group of survivors from the town of Forest Hills, or step into the shoes of the Fiend, a supernaturally attuned killer. Displaced must work to collect resources and escape, while Fiends hunt down their victims to kill them before they can get away. 

Fans can learn more about Forest Hills: The Last Year by visiting the Undaunted Games team at PAX East in Boston from March 22 to 24 at booth 13085 in the Exhibitors Hall, right across from the Tabletop Area next to Gate 11. 

Forest Hills: The Last Year will be available on PC this summer and can be wishlisted on Steam now. For more information, visit the Undaunted Games YouTube, Twitter, and Discord Server. The press kit for Undaunted Games can be found here.
