Publisher Shochiku and developer Serafini Productions announced a PS5 port for BrokenLore: DON’T WATCH, their spooky new Japanese horror game.
BrokenLore: DON’T WATCH is coming to PS5 sometime after its PC (via Steam) release this month, which is set for April 25th.
Here’s a rundown on the game, plus a new trailer:
In BrokenLore: DON’T WATCH, players will explore the crumbling mind of Shinji, a hikikomori, as he confronts Hyakume, a malevolent entity with a hundred eyes that lurks in the shadows. Isolated from the outside world due to unpaid debts, mounting bills, and a family that doesn’t understand him, Shinji finds his only escape in video games. However, even this distraction fails to alleviate the crushing weight of his anxiety. His personal computer becomes his sole link to the outside world, but safety is only an illusion.
