Halloween just got a massive upgrade.
Indie studio Telesphore has announced that HorrorVale: Deadluxe Edition — the definitive version of the beloved monster-filled RPG — launches October 31, 2026 on PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, Nintendo Switch, and PC via Steam. This isn’t just a port: it’s a full-blown overhaul with new quests, characters, areas, and a stunning visual refresh, all arriving on the spookiest day of the year.
Welcome Back to HorrorVale
HorrorVale first won hearts on PC as a charming, retro-styled RPG where you play as Alma, a young witch who sets out to uncover the truth behind a mysterious disappearance in her monster-inhabiting hometown. The game blends classic turn-based combat, a colourful cast of undead and supernatural allies, and a delightfully spooky-but-wholesome tone — equal parts EarthBound, Undertale, and every monster movie you ever loved as a kid.
The Deadluxe Edition builds on that foundation with enough new material to feel like a fresh adventure, even for returning players.
What’s New in Deadluxe?
This edition is packed with upgrades across the board:
- Enhanced Visuals — completely redrawn character sprites, richer backgrounds, improved lighting and effects, and widescreen support that makes the world feel bigger and more alive than ever
- New Story Chapters — untold tales from the valley, including side quests that dive deeper into your party members’ backstories and a mysterious new thread that unfolds after the main campaign
- New Playable Characters — recruit additional monsters to your team, each with unique abilities, combat styles, and personal arcs
- Explorable New Areas — venture into previously unseen corners of the valley, from a mist-shrouded cemetery district to a sprawling underground market where creatures trade in rare and curious goods
- Rebalanced Combat — refined encounters, new skills and combos, and optional difficulty settings so everyone from casual explorers to tactical masters can enjoy the ride
- Audio Remaster — remixed and expanded soundtrack, plus improved sound design that brings every creak, cackle, and cheer to life
Monster Friends, Big Hearts
At its core, HorrorVale is about community — and finding courage in the most unexpected places. Your party includes a friendly werewolf, a dapper skeleton, a shy ghost, and more — each with their own quirks, fears, and strengths. The Deadluxe Edition deepens those bonds with expanded dialogue, character-specific side stories, and moments that will make you laugh and care even more.
Combat is turn-based with a twist: timing-based inputs boost your attacks and reduce damage, keeping every encounter engaging without slowing the story down. Build your team, mix and match abilities, and turn every battle into a chance to show off your monster squad’s best moves.
