This story is part of our Summer Gaming Marathon series. Slitterhead was the weirdest game I stumbled onto at Summer Game Fest this year.
Tucked away in a small cabana at the back of the event, it was a game few people attending even seemed to know was there. I felt compelled to check it out before the event ended, as if I were possessed. I managed to get an on-the-fly appointment to see it on the last day of Summer Game Fest , eager to dissect what I saw in its action-focused gameplay trailer.
“In Siren, there was this mechanic where you could sightjack and see from another’s perspective,” Toyama tells Digital Trends. “The team carries over many of those who worked on Siren as well, so we modernized that sense of borrowing another’s vision, but this time around, you’re borrowing another body instead of just seeing someone else’s perspective.”
From there, the quest for Hyoki to learn more about what it is and where the Slitterhead threat originated begins. Toyama wouldn’t tease much about Slitterhead’s broader story, only reinforcing what the opening of the game shows and that the big mystery of the game is discovering what the Slitterhead actually is. Dissecting the complex narratives of games like Silent Hill and Siren is part of their appeal, and I can’t wait to do that with Slitterhead once the whole game is out.
Slitterhead - Gameplay Trailer - SGF 2024 People stand around every combat arena, and it was up to me to switch between them before the person I was controlling died. If the player dies in someone’s body three times or stays out of a body for too long, it’s game over. Toyama tells me that there are around 10 “rarity characters” players encounter during Slitterhead’s story that are much better at combat.
