The team at Team17 Digital has late this week released Killer Frequency, a game described as an ’80s black comedy slasher adventure. The game, which has officially launched today, is available on multiple platforms including PlayStation 5 and PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X and Xbox One, as well as Nintendo Switch.
Killer Frequency transports players to a Midwestern US town, putting them in the shoes of Forrest Nash, a late-night radio show host on ‘The Scream’. Nash, a somewhat faded DJ, is confronted with the responsibility of aiding his listeners and callers who are being pursued by a cryptic masked killer, adding an element of suspense to the gameplay.
Promoted features of Killer Frequency 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?
Distribution of Killer Frequency in Australia and New Zealand is being handled by the team at Five Star Games.
