What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We want players to jump into The Other Side while it’s still growing and help shape where it goes. Getting the game into the hands of real players early lets us see what works, what doesn’t, and what ideas the community brings to the table. Together, we can make this one of the most immersive and terrifying ghost-hunting experiences out there.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Our goal is to reach a full release sometime in late 2026, but we’re not rushing it. We want to make sure every update feels meaningful and polished, so that timeline could shift as we expand features and respond to feedback along the way.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full version will build on everything that’s already here. More ghosts, more maps, more equipment, and more ways to play. We’ll also continue adding seasonal events, challenge modes, and quality-of-life improvements inspired by what players want most. Every major update will bring new reasons to jump back in with your friends.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“The game already includes full multiplayer for up to six players, multiple haunted locations, a wide variety of ghost types, and plenty of tools to hunt them with. You can customize your character, build and decorate multiple headquarters with furniture you’ve earned, and upgrade your equipment as you progress. There’s already a ton to explore, and new content is being added regularly as we develop.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Yes. As the game grows and more content is added, the price may increase to reflect the added value. We’ll always give players plenty of notice before any price changes, so you’ll never be caught off guard.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“The community is at the heart of everything we do. Seriously. We’re players too, and we’re right there alongside everyone else. Talking, laughing, testing, and sharing feedback together. The Other Side is being built with the community, not just for it.”

About This Game

  • The Other Side is a 1-6 player cooperative paranormal investigation game. Players work together to identify and cleanse entities using a range of equipment, and environmental tools. Gather evidence, track ghost behavior, and complete objectives across different locations using both traditional, and modernized tools.

  • Players can customize their characters and unlock items to personalize their headquarters. Built in Unreal Engine 5, the game focuses on modern, functional investigation systems and detailed environments.

  • Play solo, or with up to five other players as you investigate haunted locations. Work together to identify and cleanse entities by gathering evidence and completing objectives.

  • In-Game Voice Chat:
    Communicate with your team using proximity-based voice chat. Share information, coordinate movement, and respond to events in real time. Players can even communicate with their fallen friends by using the spirit box.

  • Shared Equipment:
    Players can bring and use equipment during contracts, allowing teams to coordinate loadouts and approach each investigation strategically. Success depends on how effectively tools are used, and information is shared.

  • Progress through the game to unlock more customization options across your loadout, character, and headquarters. Earn money via contracts to spend on customization options for yourself, your vehicle, and headquarters. Upgrading to a larger vehicle increases the number of items you can bring into investigations.

  • Character Customization:
    Customize your character with a range of apparel, hairstyles, and skin tones.

  • Headquarters Outfitting:
    Unleash your creativity as you furnish and upgrade your base, sculpting its appearance to reflect your success in completing contracts and tasks. Create an atmospheric hub that fellow ghost hunters envy.

  • Identify:
    Determine the ghost type by gathering evidence, and observing behavior. Use investigation tools to track activity, collect date, and correctly identify the ghost haunting the location.

  • Cleanse:
    Now that the Identify Team has done their job, it's time for you to do yours. Work as a team to cleanse the location of the ghost haunting it. Use your ghost-hunting tools to identify the ghost's characteristics, and input them into the Spectral Affixer, revealing the location of the artifacts binding the ghost to the location. Find the artifacts and destroy them to banish the ghost from the location.

  • Investigate a range of locations, each with distinct layouts, environmental details, and each with their own gameplay challenges. Every location is designed to support evidence gathering, ghost tracking, and contract objectives.
