Investigators!
Update 0.8 for The Devourer: Hunted Souls has a name and a month. The Overhaul arrives in November 2026! This update is a huge package in preparation for Chapter 2's release and further work on Chapter 3.
We never stopped working on The Devourer, even when it was quiet here. We wanted the game to get closer to our standards and visions, and this update increases the overall quality a lot.
What waits for you in The Overhaul
- A new afterlife. When your HP drops to 0 you're taken to a new place. Find your way out to get revived
- Redesigned menus, dealt like cards
- A new HUD that now shows how loud you are, what you say and your loudness is now always relevant, find out in what way
- Reworked puzzles across Whispering Pines and Chapter 1
- Faces that speak, and show fear when something comes close. We want players to see and feel the horror
- Mouths also move with voice chat input
- More realistic sounding voice chat: a corridor sounds like a corridor, the forest echoes
- 31 languages and full controller support
- Upgrade to Unreal Engine 5.7 including TONS of performance updates
- And something new walks Whispering Pines at night
