Press release:
Rome – 22 February 2023.
The Rome-based (Italy) indie games publisher Leonardo Interactive and Olevano Romano-based (Lazio, Italy) indie games developer Invader Studios, are today extremely happy and thrilled to announce that their survival horror game “Daymare: 1994 Sandcastle” (the prequel of the acclaimed “Daymare: 1998”), is coming to PC (via Steam) and consoles (PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, and the Xbox One) this May (2023).

In “Daymare: 1994 Sandcastle” players will impersonate Special Agent Dalila Reyes, a former government spy now working for H.A.D.E.S. (Hexacore Advanced Division for Extraction and Search) unity, aiming to enter the most advanced experimental research centre in the United States of America.

You will need very firm nerves because, in the darkness of the abandoned and intricate underground structure, something chilling and lethal is ready to unleash!

A perfect mix of fierce and deadly enemies, hardcore action gameplay mechanics, environmental puzzles, a thrilling soundtrack, freedom of exploration and massive doses of horror are the main ingredients of Daymare: 1994 Sandcastle.

Leonardo Caltagirone, Founder of Leonardo Interactive, declared: “We are excited to announce the arrival on online and physical stores of an important and awaited title as Daymare: 1994 Sandcastle, an international project with a 100% Italian heart. The daily work side by side with a development team like Invader Studios allowed the creation of a game that we are sure will thrill survival horror fans.”

“After years of hard work, we are really proud to announce the release date of Daymare: 1994 Sandcastle. – adds Alessandro De Bianchi, Head of Studio di Invader Studios and Game Director for Daymare: 1994 Sandcastle.

“This second chapter of the Daymare saga embodies the entire dedication of Invader Studios to offering players an immersive and terrifying gaming experience.

We have invested significant resources and used the most advanced technologies available to create a game that, while inspired by the great successes of the ‘golden age’ of the 90s, at the same time represents a modern and innovative proposal for fans of the horror genre.

All this was possible thanks to the support of our publisher, Leonardo Interactive, who immediately embraced our vision and promoted an all-Italian synergy determined to grow and consolidate our industry internationally. We are confident that fans will appreciate our work.”
