Get Into the Cosmic Horror of ‘The Chant’ With the New Story Trailer [Video]

With Brass Token’s The Chant heading home this October, the devs have started the buzz ahead of release with a new story trailer for the horror action adventure title.

As detailed in the story trailer, The Chant centres on the Prismic Science Spiritual Retreat, which is located on the remote Glory Island. Any positive vibes from the retreat are wiped away entirely when a ritualistic chant goes wrong, resulting in a visiting group’s negative energy unleashing the Gloom, a dimension of cosmic terror. To survive the Gloom, players must uncover a cultish mystery spanning both past and present.

Of course, isn’t so easy. Other group members are slowly being driven mad from a host of parasitic creatures. These horrors prey on your own fears, and can be fatal unless you carefully balance your mind, body, and spirit. Players can choose to flee or fight with an assortment of spiritual weapons and abilities in an effort to lock away the Gloom and escape from Glory Island.

“In The Chant our aim is to surprise players with an off-kilter mix of 1970s cult horror and New Age spirituality,” said Mike Skupa, Creative Director at Brass Token. “As a boutique studio, we have the freedom to try new things and we’re challenging ourselves every day with our first title.”

The Chant arrives October 2022 on PC via Steam, PlayStation 5, and the Xbox Series.
