What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“VHS Tapes will continue to receive substantial content updates in the form of new tapes on a regular basis, along with bug fixes and quality of life improvements. We would like to involve the community in the game's development to help shape it's future content and create the best horror experience.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“VHS Tapes will be in early access for approximately 2 years.”

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

“During VHS Tapes' development, we plan to complete the full over-arching story that links the tapes together, alongside adding a bunch more individual unique tapes along the way, with their own stories, puzzles, challenges and enemies.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“VHS Tapes already offers an immersive co-op horror experience. There is already 4 unique levels, each with different stories, enemies, puzzles and challenges.”

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

“It is likely that VHS Tapes will increase in price slightly as more content is added to the game.”

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

“Through the use of a discord server, allowing players to provide much needed feedback and to report any bugs/issues they may find. It is also planned to have community polls to find out what they would like to see in the next update.”

About This Game

VHS Tapes is a 1-4 player, online co-op horror game where you and your friends experience a collection of mysterious video tapes, each one containing a completely different story, location, and nightmare to endure. Complete puzzles, survive the monsters, and progress through each terrifying tape... Just remember, it's only a recording.

  • Multiple Levels: Each tape is its own experience. Explore unsettling environments, uncover hidden clues, solve puzzles, and piece together what happened as the line between watching and experiencing begins to disappear.

  • Immersive Experience: Realistic graphics and audio, combined with an old 90's vhs tape feel, delivers an immersive experience to put you right at the centre of each tape's horrors.

  • Unique Enemies: Every tape has it's own horrors lurking in the dark, no two are the same. Use your wits and speed to outsmart and outrun them.

  • Puzzles & Challenges: Each tape presents new puzzles to solve and challenges to overcome. Explore the tapes to find clues to help you... but make sure you watch your back whilst doing so.

  • Play Together: VHS Tapes supports online co-op play for up to 4 players. Use teamwork to solve puzzles, evade dangers and survive each tape.

  • In-game Voice Chat: VHS Tapes supports local in-game voice chat with the options to have it always on (recommended), Push-to-talk, or off. Hear your friends scream in the distance as they are chased by the unknown.
