Indie developer Headware Games announced console ports for Hollowbody, their retro third-person survival horror game.
Hollowbody is coming to Xbox Series X|S and PS5 this summer on June 5th, with a price set at $16.99 USD.
The retro survival horror game was previously released for Windows PC (via Steam and GOG) back in 2024.
Here’s a rundown on the game, plus a new trailer:
The highly-anticipated console versions of Hollowbody come feature-complete with all post-launch updates added to the original PC release. This includes new optional puzzles, locations and lore, numerous quality-of-life improvements, bug fixes and tweaks, third-person camera mode and Spanish, Brazilian Portuguese, Russian, Japanese localisations.
A dystopian love letter to survival horror, Hollowbody effortlessly evokes classic titles of yesteryear, while carving out its own distinct take on the genre. Grimy and abandoned urban locations sit toe-to-toe with an eye-catching futurist aesthetic, while a mysterious, tech-noir narrative will grip players as they explore a long abandoned British city.
Set in the near-future, players take control of Mica, an unlicensed black market shipper who will stop at nothing to find her missing partner. After her hover crashes deep within the exclusion zone, she is left alone and stranded with limited resources at her disposal. She will have to push her way through the zone, solve environmental puzzles, manage resources and fight for her life as she tries to find a way to escape beyond the wall.
She needs to find a way out. Call for evac, scale the walls. Something. Anything. Survive.
