EEK3 marks the third annual showcase from Haunted PS1, a community dedicated to showcasing indie horror games that have a style which hails back to the PS1 era. Prepare for plenty of low-poly models and jagged aliasing, because that exactly is what this stream is preparing to show off.
The showcase’s call for submissions was announced via YouTube back in March, running until May 31, and now it’s only a matter of hours before it’s revealed with games made the cut. The most exciting thing about this neat, niche showcase is the lack of leaks; we’ve truly no idea what games will be shown, which has us gearing up for a rather thrilling Friday night of indie reveals.
Last year’s EEK3 showcase was incredibly haunted indeed, and a handful of the titles shown might’ve already been familiar to Haunted PS1 fans as being a part of 2021’s Haunted PS1 Demo Disc from a few months prior. We’re yet to see the Demo Disc for 2022, but that’s yet another thing to look forward to, and here’s to hoping we might be able to sample some of the games shown off at this year’s EEK3. Although, if you’re unfamiliar, you’re likely wondering what even is the Haunted PS1 Demo Disc?
