As a seasoned gamer with over two decades of gaming under my belt, I must say that the latest revelations about Slitterhead from Bokeh Game Studio has me more than intrigued! The Silent Hill pedigree, coupled with Keiichiro Toyama’s genius, is a recipe for an unforgettable experience.


Bokeh Game Studio, headed by Keiichiro Toyama, the mastermind behind Silent Hill, has shared fresh insights about their upcoming action-adventure horror title, Slitterhead, due for release on 8th November. These glimpses offer a first glance at new characters, abilities, gameplay features, and other exciting details.

The initial character in the game is Blake, a former Marine known for his ruthlessness, who leads the SPEU, a group dedicated to combating Slitterheads. Additionally, we meet Betty, an old woman who provides cryptic advice, and Lisa, the only nurse working at an underground clinic.

After that, we encounter the peculiar beings known as the Slitterheads and gain some insight into their extraordinary abilities. These creatures are capable of ingesting a human brain, thereby adopting the victim’s behavior and personality. However, when they prey upon humans, they transform into a disturbing “Pupal” form, replacing their original head with a hideous visage. When facing peril, they assimilate the host’s bodily fluids to metamorphose into their “Complete Form,” enhancing their powers substantially. Each Slitterhead is unique, but all require a human host for survival.

Each individual human possesses unique abilities for combatting these monsters, featuring two ‘Active’ powers and one ‘Common’ one. For instance, Blake wields the ability called Bloody Shot, where he can create a machine gun from his own blood (though it diminishes his blood supply), while Betty can employ Diabolic to transform puddles of blood into deadly blades.

As a gamer, I’d put it like this: “I get a sneak peek into the game world and its playstyle too. I’ll be on the hunt for Memory Fragments that help me regain lost memories, uncover hidden objectives, or unlock fresh abilities. There are Shrines scattered around, offering rewards after I successfully complete their challenging tasks. Plus, I can gather costumes to personalize my characters as I journey through this game.
