Blue Ridge Hunting launches in Early Access in August
Face off against cryptids based on real Appalachian legends and folklore.
Cooperative horror game Blue Ridge Hunting will launch in Early Access for PC via Steam in August, Six One Publishing and developer Jade & Company announced.
Here is an overview of the game, via Six One Publishing:
About
In the narrative-driven story mode, join the Appalachian Investigation Group (either alone or with up to three players) as you investigate, document clues, and hunt terrifying cryptids based on real legends and folklore. In freeplay mode, explore and hunt the Appalachian region freely with up to five fellow investigators. As you earn money from completing investigations, continue to upgrade your gear so you are well-equipped for greater threats that lurk within the forests. Be careful not to let these creatures hear you, as any small whisper or unusually loud step could be your last.
Key Features
- Found Footage – A gritty retro/PSX art style inspired by early 3D horror and analog media.
- Always Listening – Creatures react to proximity voice chat and radio chatter — communication is crucial, but dangerous.
- Into the Woods, Solo or Together – Explore Appalachia alone or with up to 5 players in online co-op freeplay.
- Bump in the Night – A narrative-driven story (1–3 players) following the Appalachian Investigation Group’s hunt for the Mothman.
- Experience the Legends – Encounter unique, intelligent creatures based on real Appalachian folklore and sightings.
