Invader Studios are mostly known for working on Resident Evil 2 Reborn, which was an unofficial remake that got quite a lot of attention on YouTube, although it was shutdown respectfully after Capcom announced that it was working on an official remake for Resident Evil 2.
With development now halted, Invader Studios have been able concentrate on its own game - Daymare: 1998. Satoshi Nakai is on board to help design the monsters, who was also the artist on Resident Evil Zero and Resident Evil Code Veronica.
Daymare: 1998 will be a third person survival horror game with over the shoulder camera, developed in Unreal Engine 4 for PC. The visual style and atmosphere is hugely inspired by 1990’s cult movies and the resident evil series that the developers are so fond of.
Here’s a list of features for Daymare: 1998:
- A multi-character “can’t-stop-playing” storyline
-
Your favourite survival horror nightmares are back to haunt you! (Limited save points, anyone?)
-
Foes outnumber ammunition, you have been warned!
-
Tons of references to the ’90s pop culture and horror movie hat-tips (and a lot of raccoons too…)
-
Original scary, creepy, thrilling, handmade soundtrack
