\"Looking<\/p>

SLASHER NIGHT<\/strong> is a single-player VR horror game that flips the usual setup: instead of running from the killer, you are the killer<\/strong>. It’s being made by the small indie team N0N<\/strong> (NON GameStudio) for Meta Quest and Steam PC VR<\/strong>, and it’s coming soon, with Steam listing Q1 2027<\/strong> and the Meta Quest store listing December 2026<\/strong>.<\/p>\n

The developer emailed us about the game and has been sharing work-in-progress clips, so here’s our Indie Spotlight: what it is, how it plays, and what’s still to come. This is a spotlight, not a review. We haven’t played it.<\/p>\n

What is SLASHER NIGHT?<\/h2>\n

You start at home with an order from the mysterious Redstream Organisation<\/strong>. The Steam page describes you as a killer working “as a Streamer” for them. Your job is to head out into Redcastle<\/strong>, a quiet suburban neighbourhood, find your assigned targets and strike. The game’s tagline sums it up: “Tonight, Redcastle belongs to you.”<\/p>\n

Redcastle is an open suburban area of homes, backyards, streets and dark corners, and the developer says the hunt goes across multiple levels<\/strong>. How you approach each target is up to you.<\/p>\n

How does SLASHER NIGHT play?<\/h2>\n

The neighbourhood reacts to you. According to the store pages, residents react, witnesses run and the authorities respond, and “the more chaos you create, the more dangerous Redcastle becomes”. You’re not untouchable either: you have to avoid capture and fight through resistance to finish the job.<\/p>\n

In its emails to us, N0N said the focus is on NPC physical reactions, melee interactions and encounter decisions<\/strong>, the things that matter most when you’re standing in the scene in VR. The Steam page tags it as a physics-driven, open-world immersive sim with a 1990s, cult-horror feel, and lists adjustable difficulty.<\/p>\n
