The Blackout Club Is The Perfect Horror Game For Fans Of Stranger Things

Published

on

If you’re a gamer and a fan of the popular Netflix series ‘Stranger Things’, then there’s a new co-op horror game that may be right up your alley.

‘The Blackout Club’ has a premise that will remind many fans of the Netflix hit of the show itself.

Set in a small rural town, teens teaming up to launch an investigation the disappearance of their friend when the adults refuse to recognize the strange things going on.

Each teen will have their own play style, individually unique, and the game will allow you to level up to gain added skills and abilities.

Here is the synopsis:

Set in a small town with a monstrous secret, The Blackout Club follows a group of teens who band together after learning they’ve all been temporarily losing consciousness – waking up in strange places with no memory of what they have done. Recently, one of their closest friends vanished entirely. When none of their parents, teachers, or even the police are willing to believe them, the friends launch an investigation. Together they will discover a maze of tunnels – a hostile underworld filled with hypnotic music and populated by a clandestine group of adults – all beneath their seemingly idyllic suburbs.

Question, the development team behind the game is looking to create something unique for Playstation, Xbox one and PC when it launches later in 2018.

Question’s co-founder Jordan Thomas said the following in a recent press release:

“In The Blackout Club, the horror genre comes home. Our story is about vulnerable heroes — for whom co-op gameplay is a matter of survival — who unite to save their friends. We love expressive systems, where you shape the game experience as you see fit, often versus a whole ecosystem of intelligent threats. And now, they’re right next door – in a familiar, modern town, where the monster wears a human face. We can’t wait for you to meet it.”

Blizzard is leveling up their efforts to thwart cheaters and misconduct within Overwatch 2, as the company aims to penalize players who are friends with cheaters and will amp up their monitoring of voice communications.

The company detailed this in the brand new update for its Defense Matrix Initiative, which is focused on curbing “gameplay sabotage, abusive chat, and cheating” stating their plan to come down on players who team up with cheaters, and more.

Blizzard admitted that cheating in Overwatch 2 is a problem and has “actioned over 50,000 accounts” since the game launched and starting in Season 3 they will be actively identifying players that purposely team up with players who are regularly flagged as cheaters, and will also face potential discipline.

Overwatch 2 will also have improved protection for streamers, as the issue of Stream sniping continues to be a problem, and in Season 3 they will be “introducing new streaming protection features that should be a huge step toward enabling content creators to share Overwatch 2 with their fans safely.”
