Horror based in deep folk traditions, the genre started with a triumvirate of British films and is now a global phenomenon.

Looking to build off of the buzz from the initial reveal back in November, Vertpaint Games has dropped a part documentary, part gameplay teaser for their upcoming Lovecraftian folk horror title Ritual Tides. The teaser gives viewers plenty of eye candy, looking to prove the claim by Vertpaint CEO James Macleod that Ritual Tides will be โ€œthe highest quality horror game of 2025.โ€

In this documentary-esque reveal, viewers are candidly treated to a never-before-seen peek behind the development of Ritual Tides, offering glimpses of the eerily stunning landscapes and its grotesque inhabitants.

...

Described as being โ€œexceedingly darkโ€ and โ€œnot pulling any punches,โ€ Ritual Tides sees players finding themselves washed up on a beach on the aforementioned island, with the only goal being to uncover the islandโ€™s horrific secrets. Players will have a โ€œgunโ€ at their disposal, but not in a typical fashion, which will set this title apart from other games within the genre.

...

Currently, the game is slated for a Q3 2025 launch, followed by releases on console. Keep tabs on the gameโ€™s development for now via the official website.
