BECROWNED adds PS5, Xbox Series, and Switch 2 versions, delayed to Q1 2027
Console versions join PC release.
Psychological survival horror game BECROWNED will launch for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, Switch 2, and PC via Steam in Q1 2027, a delay from its previously planned fall 2026 release window, publisher Top Hat Studios and developer 13th Street Games announced. The console versions are newly announced.
Here are the latest details, via Top Hat Studios:
The new trailer showcases the darker, stranger direction BECROWNED has taken since it was originally announced several years ago. While early impressions drew comparisons to classic staples of the psychological horror genre, the game has since evolved dramatically, now encompassing the lurid atmosphere of 1970s and 1980s grindhouse cinema and the surrealist dark satirical humor of 70s French horror. It is further shaped by unique Russian cultural and literary references that reflect the game director’s unique perspective.
In BECROWNED, players step into the role of Richard Torrance, a self-willed yet deeply dissatisfied man who believes happiness is something to be seized through sheer force of will. However, underneath his domineering mantle lies a gnawing emptiness that no achievement can satisfy. The player will navigate a complex web of Richard’s relationships – both inside and outside of the strange dimension he finds himself in – to determine his ultimate fate.
The more he pursues the simple yet elusive concept of happiness, the further Richard is drawn into bizarre, disturbing, and surreal places that should not exist… but remain very real. As he descends into a nightmarish world where reality and madness begin to blur, his desperate need for control becomes an obsession, forcing him to question whether the greatest threat to his own salvation is himself or those around him.
