Leonardo Interactive and Invader Studios have announced Daymare: 1994 Sandcastle, the prequel to 2019’s Daymare: 1998. It will launch in 2022 on PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X&S, Xbox One and PC.
The game’s description reads like this on its Steam page:
Step into the shoes of special agent Dalila Reyes, a former government spy now in the service of a unit called H.A.D.E.S. (Hexacore Advanced Division for Extraction and Search), and get ready to enter the most advanced experimental research center in the United States of America. Be careful, though, because in the darkness of the desolate, labyrinthine depths of the military research center there is something creepy and lethal awaiting you!
The Daymare series are third-person survival horror games heavily inspired by the Resident Evil games of yore. We reviewed Daymare: 1998 and found that while it stayed true to its survival horror roots, it lacked the quality to step out from Resident Evil’s shadow. In saying that, I am keen to see how they build on the gameplay mechanics with Daymare: 1994 Sandcastle.

Despite a childhood playing survival horrors, point and clicks and beat ’em ups, these days Zach tries to convince people that Homefront: The Revolution is a good game while pining for a sequel to The Order: 1886 and a live-action Treasure Planet film.
