Death Mark Releases on Halloween with Gorgeous Limited Edition

Aksys Games’ survival horror adventure game Death Mark is heading to PlayStation 4, the PlayStation Vita, and the Nintendo Switch on the creepiest day of the year: October 31st.

Come this Halloween, Death Mark will tell its tale of a supernatural curse spreading through Tokyo. Those who are to die by it bear a mysterious mark on their bodies. The game looks to be quite the grim and gruesome adventure, featuring some of the best visual design I’ve recently seen in games like it.

In Death Mark, A strange rumor is spreading in Tokyo’s H City: those who bear the Mark will die. Unexpectedly appearing on the body, like a chewed up birthmark, the Mark is said to result in an unknown death. Now, having lost your memory, you stand before a mysterious house said to protect those who possess the Mark. As the doors swing open, the countdown to death has already begun. Features of Death Mark include: Search and Survive! – To avoid an almost certain gruesome death at the “hands” of angry spirits, you’ll need to search your surroundings for clues to increase your odds of survival.
