Greetings, travelers! And Happy Halloween! This is Steve here to answer a few questions and give everyone an update on Castle Dornstein.
What’s the status of Castle Dornstein?
We’ve made great progress these last few months. In fact, the game is nearly finished (at least in rough form). As we complete the artwork and animations, we’ll look toward casting our voice actors and entering the final phase of production.
When will the game be released?
The second half of 2026. Official release date TBD.
How spooky is Castle Dornstein?
Castle Dornstein is a gothic mystery. You can expect a spooky atmosphere and lots of tension as you explore the castle at night and unravel a dark mystery.
And while I wouldn’t call the game ‘horror’ exactly, it does take influence from some classic gothic horror. There won’t be jump scares or zombies, but there will be bumps in the night and disturbing revelations.
How are you celebrating Halloween?
By watching Sleepaway Camp for the hundredth time and eating candy corn until my stomach hurts.
Seen any good horror movies lately?
Weapons is one of my favorite movies of the year — horror or otherwise. Highly recommended.
And since it’s spooky season, I’m watching as many horror movies as I can. New or old, classic or obscure… anybody got any favorites? What’s the last one that creeped you out? Drop a recommendation in the comments.
That’s all for now! As always, follow us on our socials for more updates, and we’ll be back in the winter with another update!
