Top Hat Studios, Inc. (@TopHatStudiosEN) and developer Casper Croes announced the global console release date for retro-inspired survival horror game, Alisa. The game will launch on February 6th, 2024, and will be playable on Xbox One, Xbox Series X|S, PlayStation 4|5, and Nintendo Switch.

Alisa is a homage to the classic survival horror games of the 90s, with a twisted story, creepy enemies, and challenging puzzles. The game is a genuine throwback to PS1 and N64 style gaming - complete with pre-rendered backgrounds, a whopping 480p resolution (with the ability to render in an even more amazing 240p being investigated), and fixed camera angles. For player comfort, the choice between classic tank controls or modern control styles is available in-game.

Originally developed in Unity 5 - an extremely old version of the popular engine, almost a decade old - Alisa required the use of several engine and technological innovations to make the game compatible with modern console systems. The game runs faithfully to the original on all platforms, and the port team is proud of the result. This Developer's Cut contains all updates and new content previously added to the PC version, as well as numerous fixes and quality-of-life optimizations.

Alisa's features:

• Classic Survival Horror gameplay
• Real pre-rendered backgrounds and authentic low-poly models presented in a mindblowing 480p
• Currency, items, and outfits with unique player stats boosts
• Weapon load-outs, ranging from a sabre to a blunderbuss to an SMG
• A large variety of enemies and locations with surprises around every corner!
• Choice between modern or classic tank-controls movement styles
• A weird sense of humour
• A nostalgic trip to the late 1990s, right down to the voice acting
  
  

Alisa will be available for Xbox One, Xbox X|S, PlayStation 4|5, and Nintendo Switch on February 6, 2024.
