Press release:
Pittsburgh, United States – January 27, 2026 – Solo developer FYRE Games is today thrilled to announce that its cinematic, narratively-driven horror title Project Songbird will launch for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and PC via Steam on March 26. FYRE Games is self-publishing on PC, while the console ports will be published by Dojo System.

Set deep beneath the isolating canopy of the Appalachian forest, Project Songbird is a grippingly, surreal and psychological tale which explores the dark side of the creative process. Players will take on the role of Dakota, a struggling career musician who, while suffering from writer’s block, heads to a remote log cabin to record their new album. As they search amongst the pines for a spark of creativity, they soon discover something more lurks in the darkness – and that not all inspirations are positive.

With a strong-focus on narrative, cinematic presentation and player immersion, Project Songbird effortlessly juxtaposes picturesque, naturalistic environments with surrealist nightmarescapes. Stunning voice performances from a highly-talented cast will pull players headfirst into this dark tale, while tactile and heart-pounding combat encounters will keep them on their toes.

Project Songbird – Key Features

A dark, enthralling 4-5 hour narrative to keep you hooked and guessing until the end.
