 Seville, Spain - October 8th, 2024 – Billete Cohete is proud to announce the official launch date of Tormenture, a game that blends 80s retro nostalgia with a modern touch of psychological horror. Tormenture will be released on October 21, 2024, offering players around the world an immersive experience where the virtual and the real collide in unexpected and terrifying ways.

 

 [RELEASE DATE TRAILER]

 The game stands out for its innovative mix of retro graphics, inspired by the aesthetics of classic 80s consoles, combined with modern mechanics that enhance the horror. Players will take on the role of a child who rents a video game rumored to be cursed. What begins as a nostalgic experience soon spirals into a true nightmare. The dangers of the game begin to transcend the screen, affecting the protagonist’s real surroundings, creating a unique and tense experience.

From puzzles that require interaction with items in the room to pixelated creatures that seem to "escape" from the game, Tormenture guarantees an immersive and unsettling atmosphere that challenges the boundaries between reality and fiction.

 In this adventure, players can expect:

  • Retro aesthetics combined with modern mechanics: Pixel art in the style of classic 8-bit games, combined with a 3D environment and updated controls that provide greater fluidity.

  • Immersive experience: The game connects the digital world with the physical one, introducing mechanics such as blowing on cartridges, taking notes, searching for clues actions typical of the 80s.

  • Multiple endings: The player’s decisions will affect the outcome, providing unique replayability and encouraging players to explore different paths.

  • 80s cultural references: Nostalgic items and details that will transport players back to a golden era for video games and pop culture.

Tormenture will be available for PC via Steam starting October 21, 2024. Players can already add the game to their wishlist on Steam to receive a notification as soon as it becomes available.
