In the meantime, check out the official trailer and more details below:

Rotterdam, The Netherlands – April 22, 2020 –  On May 22, 2020, the critically acclaimed survival horror game Monstrum is coming digitally to PS4™, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch. The physical release is postponed to a later date due to the current global developments related to COVID-19. Monstrum combines deadly AI driven predators and permadeath within a procedurally generated container ship level, to create a truly re-playable horror experience on the open seas. A brand new trailer has released today to accompany the news. A Nautical Horror In Monstrum, players awaken trapped on a massive, derelict cargo ship with no knowledge of how they got there. Hunted by a horrific predator, they must scavenge the ship for clues and tools to find a means of escape. Left completely defenseless against a prowling beast; the only way to survive is to distract, hide, or slow the creature down before running for your life. Players only have one chance; permadeath and no save points means that once killed, they’ll have to start from scratch – so try not to get caught! The procedurally generated ship not only ensures you stay lost in the labyrinth of rooms, pathways, and items that change with each new game, but also randomizes the monster hunting you too… so brace for the unexpected.
