Team17 has announced that its black comedy slasher-adventure Killer Frequency will release on Nintendo Switch next week.
Set in a Midwestern town in the United States during the 1980s, a mysterious masked serial killer is on the loose and washed-up DJ and late-night show presenter Forrest Nash wants to help his listeners who have been stalked by them.
You must interact with your show’s callers, selecting from conversation options while listening carefully for clues and information, solving puzzles that could help to prevent their untimely demise, and keeping your show going with tunes inspired by the decade.
The publisher has outlined the game’s key features, which include:
- Stay on air: Take control of the switchboard and explore an authentic 1980s radio studio as you guide the fates of your late-night listeners stalked by a mysterious killer
- Stop the slaughter: Take calls from potential victims while gathering clues, making decisions, and solving satisfying puzzles that could help each caller survive the night
- Unmask the killer: Interact with a variety of larger-than-life personalities including callers, potential suspects, and a charismatic producer while jamming to a jukebox of 1980s-inspired tunes
- All can live or die: Choose from a variety of conversation options to interact with callers – will you guide them to safety or broadcast their last moments live on air?
Killer Frequency will release digitally on the Nintendo eShop for Nintendo Switch worldwide on 1 June 2023.
