Atmospheric horror adventure game The Tartarus Key coming to Switch
Posted on October 1, 2021 by Brian(@NE_Brian) in News, Switch eShop
The atmospheric horror adventure game The Tartarus Key is in the works for Switch, publisher Armor Games Studios and developer Vertical Reach confirmed today. It will launch in 2022.
The Tartarus Key, which is inspired by classic thrillers like Alone In The Dark, has players taking on the role of Alex Young, a young woman who awakens to find herself locked inside a sprawling manor, seemingly under constant observation by a network of cameras. Alex later learns that she’s not the only one being held captive. The only guide she’ll have is an unknown voice on the other end of a portable radio. Don’t expect any jump scares, but the game promises that “there will be plenty to keep players on their toes.”
The goal of The Tartarus Key is to ultimately escape the mansion and rescue the other captives. When it releases on Switch, three different endings will be included. Rather than combat and chase sequences, the game focuses on puzzles and plot, all presented in at atmospheric adventure.
We’ve included a trailer for the game below.
The Tartarus Key is expected to launch digitally for Switch via the eShop. Further status updates should be shared in the coming months.
