Press release:
Rotterdam, The Netherlands – 28 October 2021.
The Netherlands-based indie games publisher SOEDESCO and the Croatia-based indie games developer Red Martyr Entertainment, are today very proud and happy to announce that their psychological horror adventure game “Saint Kotar” is now available for PC via Steam, GOG, and the Epic Games Store.

To celebrate this launch, a brand new launch trailer was revealed. In addition to the game’s prologue The Yellow Mask that was released back in June 2020, Saint Kotar now offers 20 hours of gameplay, complete voice acting and community participation elements like backers as NPCs in the game.

Red Martyr Entertainment CEO Marko Tominić is thrilled to release Saint Kotar:

“From the very first idea, writing the rich lore and background story, to creating the world and characters… It’s been years of hard work to create something this unique. With all the help we’ve gotten from the Kickstarter backers, the rest of the community and our families, we’ve finally been able to see the project into which we’ve put all of our hearts come to life as a finished game.”

Full-on community support
Without the support of its Kickstarter backers, Saint Kotar would not be where it is today. After just one month on Kickstarter, the game was already fully funded. Red Martyr Entertainment has also achieved many of its stretch goals. Among these are console ports to Nintendo Switch, PlayStation, and Xbox platforms, backstory DLC, full voice acting features, and developer commentary. Red Martyr Entertainment looks forward to their next Kickstarter stretch goal, which is to further expand Saint Kotar’s story with the DLC.

SOEDESCO is still yet to determine when they’re bringing Saint Kotar to consoles. More news coming soon.
