Conscript is Out Now on PS4, PS5, PC, Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, and Nintendo Switch

The survival horror game Conscript, from Catchweight Studio, is live and ready to provide players with a haunting look at the Battle of Verdun. The gameplay is accessible on Xbox One, Xbox Series X/S, PS4, PS5, PC, and Nintendo Switch. The launch trailer reveals a glimpse of what gamers can expect.

Team17's Conscript uncovers the story of Andre, a French World War 1 soldier searching for his brother amid the chaos of Verdun. The fierce combat has turned the peaceful landscapes of France's Western Front into a veritable wasteland, which players navigate through eerie trenches and other locales. Players have the choice of ending threats using firearms or hand-to-hand combat weapons. 

One of Conscript's best features is its pixel art style, which spectacularly depicts the grim ambiance of the war while also invoking a sense of classic horror games. The game bears similarities to a typical Resident Evil title, complete with different difficulty levels and unlockable costumes and weapons.

While it may not induce fear in the conventional sense, the experience it offers is undeniably chilling.
