The upcoming horror game Scorn has received new gameplay footage, which shows the prologue of the title and introduces some prominent mechanics and details. Surprisingly little has been released about Scorn thus far, and now seems like the perfect time for fans to learn more about the title. Scorn will be coming to gamers in mid-October, and the newest gameplay seems to deliver on promises of gruesome horror.

The title will be one of nine games appearing on Xbox Game Pass in October and will take players through a creepy and unique journey. The story will follow a character who has awoken in a strange place and is trying to find a way to escape. Of course, the evil of the surroundings is much more dangerous than it may seem.

In a recent YouTube video posted by Xbox, players can see eight minutes of the Scorn prologue. The title looks beautiful and eerie, with many crisp details and subtle fog that almost make the game's aesthetic reminiscent of the dungeons from Skyrim. The title begins to forge a feel of its own, however, once the player gains an item that allows for environmental interactions. The item is a sort of spike and bracelet that is imbedded in the main character's hand in a rather disturbing moment of discovery.

Fortunately, the key then provides some examples of what players can expect from Scorn. There were many puzzles that the key was used to solve, from opening doorways to transporting a bloody body to an odd chamber. Puzzles are sure to be a big part of the gameplay, and will likely serve as barriers to collecting new gear and advancing through the campaign. This environmental storytelling from Scorn is sure to force players to search for solutions and answers to narrative problems. This is almost certain to increase the fear factor of Scorn, especially when considering the terrifying world in which the title takes place.

While there are many exciting games coming soon to fans, Scorn is definitely making itself stand out. With a clear tone, and a setting that gamers are eager to explore, this title could be a bit hit. It's exciting for players, then, to hear that Scorn is coming sooner than expected. Hopefully, the entire title will be as interesting as the gameplay that was just released from Xbox. Though Scorn looks amazing, fans will have to wait a bit longer before they can discover more details about the game for themselves.

Scorn will be released on October 14th for PC and Xbox Series X/S.
