90s-Inspired Survival Horror Prequel Daymare 1994: Sandcastle Deploys to Retailers This October

Daymare: 1994 Sandcastle is a third-person story-driven survival horror game prequel to the critically acclaimed Daymare: 1998. Step into the shoes of special agent Dalila Reyes, a former government spy now in the service of a unit called H.A.D.E.S. (Hexacore Advanced Division for Extraction and Search), and get ready to enter the most advanced experimental research center in the United States of America. Be careful though, because in the darkness of the desolate, labyrinthine depths of the military research center there is something terrifying and lethal awaiting you!

The game draws inspiration from horror and action films of the 1990s and delves into the events behind the best-selling Daymare 1998, with a revamped user interface, meticulously designed setting, and hair-raising enemy encounters.

Sandcastle follows Dalila Reyes, a special agent in the Hexacore Advanced Division for Extraction and Search (H.A.D.E.S.) unit as she investigates a sprawling, sinister military research facility buried deep underground. Dalila’s goal is uncovering the truth behind the horrors in the labyrinthine facility, if she can survive long enough to complete her mission. Along with mind-bending environmental puzzles around every turn, she’ll face blood-curdling monstrosities with only death on their mind – and who aren’t willing to stay dead.

No matter how effective her methods are, Dalila’s foes will continue to pursue her even after their last breath, often in forms far more gruesome than she first encountered. Being a H.A.D.E.S. agent has its perks, though, including guns aplenty and the powerful Frost Grip weapon that can freeze enemies where they stand (or crawl, slink, and slither).

Daymare 1994: Sandcastle features:

  • Uncover the dark events behind the story of Daymare 1998 and piece together the untold events that shaped its heroes.
  • Test your wits against a horde of frightful – and frightfully intelligent – enemies
  • Fight for your life, as the monsters you put down refuse to give up their own
  • Scour every inch of the facility with your Scanner to find puzzle solutions, valuable resources for survival, and more
  • Tweak the difficulty to suit your experience with horror and action gameplay

Daymare 1994: Sandcastle will be available at retailers across North America in October 2022 for Xbox One and Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5, and Nintendo Switch. The game will launch digitally in August 2023.
