Horror game publisher Feardemic has revealed (https://twitter.com/feardemic/status/1683876307799617537) that the 2D psychological horror adventure game Afterdream will also be coming to consoles. Afterdream will be available on Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S sometime this year.
The spooky title is in development by sole developer Jesse Makkonen. Makkonen is well known for his other 2D scary titles Heal, Distraint (https://www.destructoid.com/nintendo-download-daemon-x-machina/), and Distraint 2. Afterdream is also coming to PC via Steam (https://store.steampowered.com/app/1995880/Afterdream/), through publisher Gamera Games.
To celebrate the news, Feardemic also released a creepy console reveal trailer.

Explore lucid dreams with a spooky cameraVisually, Afterdream looks great, with eerily creepy 2D stylized pixel art. Players use a special camera to navigate a ghastly mansion that blurs the line between reality and lucid dreaming. The camera will allow you to interact with hidden objects only visible through the lens of the camera.
I love the atmosphere of Afterdream. It's hard to pull off a scary game using pixel art, but Makkonen definitely knows what he's doing. Also, with it being somewhat of a side-scroller, Afterdream seems honestly perfect for consoles. I'm curious to see where the story can go with this one, because I know his former games left quite an impact.
Afterdream will release sometime in 2023 on PC, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
