Viral Horror Hit, DON’T SCREAM, Gets Expanded Co-op Version, DON’T SCREAM TOGETHER
If anyone screams, you restart — now with co-op chaos from the devs of HYPERCHARGE: UNBOXED
Digital Cybercherries are pleased to announce that they are following up on their viral horror hit, DON’T SCREAM, with an expanded version that adds co-op to the mix: DON’T SCREAM TOGETHER. With the addition of co-op, a new game mode where you can hunt your friends, expanded locations, dynamic scares, improved voice detection, accessibility options and more, DON’T SCREAM TOGETHER offers a completely new experience.
DON’T SCREAM TOGETHER is an experience about friendship, fear, and keeping your voice down. Up to four players must survive the night together by exploring, finding batteries for their camcorders, and speaking quietly through a forest that may – or may not – be haunted. Beware the jump scares, because if anyone screams, everyone restarts.
In the new “Hunted” mode, speaking too loudly will see that player return as a playable hunter who can stalk and eliminate the remaining team using proximity voice.
This game turns a simple concept into an unpredictable and hilarious test of teamwork and self-control. Whether you’re surviving as a group or slowly losing one friend at a time, it’s a beautifully terrifying walk in the woods.
“We launched the original DON’T SCREAM in Early Access in October 2023 and it sold over 100,000 units in its first week, driven in part by its meteoric rise as a streaming sensation,” said Joe Henson, Creative Gameplay and Marketing Director at Digital Cybercherries, best known for their hit action figure shooter, HYPERCHARGE: UNBOXED. “With this new version, co-op is the headline addition, but we’ve also added features and improvements across the board that will make it feel like a completely new experience for anyone who played the first release.”
