Junji-Ito-inspired World of Horror leaves PC early access in October

World of Horror, the Junji-Ito-inspired roguelike RPG from developer Pawe&lstrok; Ko&zacute;mi&nacute;ski, leaves PC early access on 19th October and releases for PlayStation and Switch on the same day.

World of Horror initially launched into PC early access a little over three years ago, and its deliciously nasty tale of a seaside town beseiged by malevolent cosmic forces – which players must investigate over the course of five randomly selected mysteries each playthrough – has slowly expanded with new stories, events, and features since then.

If you’ve not yet hopped onboard World of Horror’s early access, the whole thing plays out something like a 1-bit version of the board game Arkham Horror, albeit with Lovecraftian overtones traded for something closer to Junji Ito’s distinct brand of the mundane run amok – so think high school terror, haunted bulletin board systems, and so on.
