Palworld developer Pocketpair is getting scarier than its proprietary blend of cute monsters with assault rifles and releasing a first-person psychological horror game this year through its new publishing arm. Actually, the game is apparently so freaky, even Pocketpair's own publishing manager won't touch it.
"Very excited to reveal DEAD TAKE!" writes Pocketpair communications director and publishing manager John "Bucky" Buckley in a June 3 post on Twitter. "A psychological horror from Surgent Studios and published by us! Pocketpair Publishing! Every time [actor and Surgent founder Abubakar Salim] would send me builds, I was too scared to play it, so I just watched others play." Bucky concludes his sentence with an absolutely hopeless crying emoji.
