Project Songbird: Survival, Music, and the Macabre

You play as Dakota, a musician who retreats to a legendary West Virginia cabin to record a new album and escape a crippling case of writer’s block. However, Project Songbird quickly shifts from a peaceful retreat into a fight for survival.

Far from being a walking simulator, the horror game features a mix of ranged and melee combat with upgradeable weapons and a high-stakes permadeath system that ensures every encounter with the forest’s “residents” feels earned and dangerous.

Launching simultaneously on PC (Steam), PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S, the game utilizes a film-like, cinematic aesthetic to bridge the gap between picturesque nature and surreal nightmarescapes.

Boasting a star-studded voice cast, including Valerie Rose Lohman (What Remains of Edith Finch) and Aleks Le (Persona 3: Reloaded), the 4-5 hour journey is designed to be a tight, intense experience from beginning to end.
