Team17 has released the debut Killer Frequency gameplay trailer, the upcoming black comedy slasher-adventure. Furthermore, the publisher has announced that the game will launch on PC and Meta Quest 2 in late summer 2023.

Set during the 1980s in a Midwestern US town Killer Frequency follows Forrest Nash. Nash is a washed-up DJ and presenter of the ‘The Scream’ late night show. As a serial killer is declared on the loose, Nash tries to help listeners and callers stalked by a mysterious masked murderer. 

Players will interact with callers to the show as the gruesome night unfolds. Using a variety of conversation options – while listening carefully for clues and information – players must solve puzzles around the studio in an attempt prevent their own grisly demise. All while keeping the show going with tunes inspired by the decade.

In Killer Frequency, death can come easy but is never assured, so it’s up to you to help Forrest prevent the slaughter, discover the killer’s true identity, and keep the grooves going until dawn.
