First-person horror game Scorn will launch a week earlier than planned, on October 14th.

For a simpleton like me, the subtle cues were perhaps a bit too subtle for my liking, and I never quite caught on whenever the game was prompting me to move on or come back to something later. I am onboard with that in theory, although Ed also found its puzzles obtuse and needed developer intervention to progress: We've been writing about Scorn for six years now, and its world of meat, bone and gristle has been compelling that entire time.

Scorn Is Now Releasing A Bit Earlier Than Expected (Press Start Australia)

Scorn, the first-person horror game out of Ebb Software, will now be releasing one whole week earlier according to its publisher Kepler Interactive.

[Given how busy that particular week of October is](https://press-start.com.au/features/2022/07/09/start-saving-for-october-because-theres-a-buttload-of-games-coming-out/), it’s probably a sound strategy to get the game out ahead of the real rush. [James recently got to go hands-on with the game’s prologue](https://press-start.com.au/previews/2022/09/21/scorn-hands-on-preview-a-hauntingly-atmospheric-prologue/) and lauded the game’s atmosphere stating: “The atmosphere is so perfectly executed that even if it falls short in any other area, I’ll still find it charming in a strange and macabre way.” We’re certainly eager to get our hands on the game when it launches. It’s being moved up to October 14, a week ahead of its original October 21 release date.
