That creeping feeling of being watched, of a malevolent presence lurking just at the edge of your perception, has been given terrifying form in a new psychological horror game – BrokenLore: DON’T WATCH.
This is the latest entry in the intricate horror series, and it has launched today on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S. From developer Serafini Productions and publisher Shochiku, this first-person nightmare is available right now for £8.39.
A Prison of Your Own Making
Prepare to explore the unraveling mind of a young man trapped by his own anxiety, but be warned: you are not alone in his apartment, and something is always watching.
In DON’T WATCH, you are placed into the world of Shinji, a young hikikomori – a modern recluse trapped inside his small Tokyo apartment.
Crushed by the weight of unpaid rent, mounting bills, and a family that doesn’t understand him, he feels completely isolated from the world, and from himself. His only escape from the crushing weight of his anxiety is video games, but even that is becoming less of a refuge.
A Mind Unraveling
This is a game about exploring Shinji’s mind as it begins to break. As you navigate the claustrophobic confines of his apartment, you must be cautious. A malevolent entity named Hyakume, a terrifying being with a hundred eyes, is watching your every move, waiting for the right moment to strike.
Shinji’s only link to the outside world is his PC, but in the world of DON’T WATCH, even there, safety is an illusion. The digital window to the world may offer a brief respite, but the ever-present gaze of Hyakume means that terror can manifest anywhere, at any time.
Can You Play BrokenLore: DON’T WATCH on Game Pass?
BrokenLore: DON’T WATCH lands on Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S as a paid experience, one that will set you back £8.39. And unfortunately, at least at launch, it is not available through Game Pass for Xbox.
Further, there is no Xbox Play Anywhere support either.
If those things change, we’ll be sure to let you know.
