Unhinged: Netflix's New Immersive Horror Game Set to Thrill Players on June 30
Netflix has recently announced the launch of a new immersive horror game called "Unhinged," which is set to debut on June 30. The game, developed by Night School Studio and featuring voices of Zoë Kravitz, Sadie Sink, and Troy Baker, offers players a unique experience that blurs the lines between gaming and watching a show or movie. Players take on the role of Ava, who must navigate through a storm with the help of her phone and interact with other characters to find safety.
Similar to their recent release, "FIFA World Cup: Launch Edition," Netflix is making "Unhinged" easily accessible to subscribers by allowing them to play the game using their phones without the need for a game controller. By scanning a QR code, players can use their phones to control Ava's movements and interact with the game environment. The game also integrates audio cues from the phone, enhancing the immersive experience for players.
For players who are new to gaming but enjoy horror content, "Unhinged" offers a "story mode" that allows them to experience the narrative without the pressure of time constraints or the risk of dying. In Standard Mode, players must rely on their reflexes to navigate high-stakes moments and make quick decisions to progress through the game. Failure to act in time will result in restarting from the last checkpoint.
"Unhinged" joins Netflix's growing collection of made-for-TV video games, expanding their offerings beyond mobile-only games. The game trailer provides a glimpse into the immersive and suspenseful gameplay experience that awaits players. Get ready to dive into the world of "Unhinged" and test your survival skills in this thrilling horror adventure.
