Redakcja Choose TV
Nacon during ChooseTV Connect 2026 showcased a substantial amount of new games set in a dark atmosphere of horror, fantasy, and the world of monsters. This year's presentation was heavily focused on the World of Darkness universe, Lovecraftian nightmares, and psychological thrillers. Among the most interesting announcements were new games featuring monster hunters, werewolves, and Dracula himself.
World of Darkness returns with new games about hunters and werewolves
One of the biggest highlights of the showcase was Hunter: The Reckoning – Deathwish from Teyon studio. The game allows players to embody a hunter fighting against supernatural threats in the World of Darkness universe. The developers are focusing on extensive character creation, a skill system inspired by tabletop RPGs, and a great deal of gameplay freedom. Players will be able to approach situations with force or more diplomatically, with a release planned for summer 2027.
The second major announcement was Werewolf: The Apocalypse – Rageborn. This time, players will take on the role of a Garou, a werewolf capable of changing forms during exploration of the world and battles with adversaries. The production is set to have a metroidvania structure and will allow players to develop their own pack and operational base. Nacon strongly indicates that it wants to continue developing games set in the World of Darkness universe, which has been regaining popularity in recent years.
Dracula, Lovecraft and psychological horror also made an appearance at the showcase
The presentation also featured more classic horrors. Dracula: The Disciple from Cyanide Studio is set to be a first-person adventure game with puzzles and an occult atmosphere. Players will find themselves in Dracula's castle in search of the elixir of immortality, with a strong emphasis on dark ambience, rituals, and psychological unease. The game's release is planned for 2027.
Also intriguing is The Mound: Omen of Cthulhu, a cooperative horror inspired by Lovecraft's work. The production will transport players to a dangerous jungle full of hallucinations, strange phenomena, and cosmic monsters. The game will heavily focus on team collaboration and an atmosphere of paranoia, where players will never be sure if what they see is real. The release has been set for July 15.
Nacon Connect 2026 strongly focuses on horror, darkness, and supernatural themes. New games featuring werewolves, monster hunters, and Dracula show that the publisher is increasingly boldly investing in more mature and atmospheric productions for fans of horror and RPGs.
