Deadbolt Interactive and Perp Games signal P1: Anchor Light launch for PC on September 9th, console release to follow!
Enter an unsuspecting lighthouse where everything is not quite as it seems. Experience the juxtaposition of tranquillity and a sinister story buried deep within the walls. Unearth its secrets… just promise us you’ll tread lightly.
Prepare to ascend the spiralling steps into a lavish lighthouse. An opulent beacon of beauty? A mysterious, morbid monolith hiding a sinister secret? The developers at Perp Games and Deadbolt Interactive will leave that discovery to you as P1: Anchor Light is set to make waves when it crashes onto Steam’s shores this September 9th, PlayStation on October 14th, and Xbox consoles on November 11th.
P for PARADISE? Far from it…
In the newest addition to the anomaly-hunting genre and first in the upcoming series that explores the PARADISE universe, P1 beckons players to enter an art-deco-inspired looping lighthouse where the aim of the game is to identify the ever-seeping anomalies in a bid to shut down the facility and finally bury its dark history. Begging to have its secrets uncovered, P1: Anchor Light plays on the sinister, where every whispering echo is a voice yearning to be heard. Can you silence the light before its madness consumes all?
Musical statues
It’s not just anomalies you need to watch out for. When the music cuts out, you MUST stop, as one foot out of place can quickly lead to your demise as you scrutinise every inch of the stunning Unreal 5 environment. Spanning the full spectrum of creepy all the way through to humorous, P1: Anchor Light delivers an immersive experience that coaxes you to return… or maybe it’s just the whispers of untold stories by those who once walked the floors of the lighthouse.
Treading water
Keen to put your anomaly hunting skills to the test? Unlock new ways to play – hard, nightmare, and endless modes will have you questioning your sanity in no time. Leave no stone unturned by collecting Floppy Disks that provide a glimpse into the maddening minds of the people who once lived there. Collecting every disk will help piece together the clues of an unfolding narrative and the horrors that seek to stop you in your very tracks.
Anomal-eaderboards
Players can take on additional challenges in P1: Anchor Light. Those in a hurry to leave the confines of the lighthouse can immortalise their quickest completion time on the in-game leaderboards in normal, hard, and nightmare modes. For unsatiated perfectionists seeking a thorough experience, ‘Endless’ mode tracks the total number of floors completed with no limitations. With high risk comes high reward, but remember, more time spent on each floor means you increase your chances of being spotted. Don’t say we didn’t warn you about this place…
Antonio Alvarado, Lead Game Designer at Deadbolt Interactive and Grant Wilde, Head of Production and Design at Perp Games, commented: “As long-time fans of horror and the anomaly-hunting genre, we wanted to create an experience that was more sinister and unsettling in its offering and atmosphere. P1: Anchor Light wears a mask of beauty, but when removed, reveals something far, far darker. To us, P1 is an evolutionary next step within the genre that we hope players will enjoy exploring.”
Like a story straight out of the Twilight Zone, P1: Anchor Light will be available on Steam in the very near future. September 9th to be exact. Console owners can expect the anchor drop of P1 on PlayStation this October 14th and Xbox on November 11th.
