Zoochosis is an immersive bodycam horror simulation game developed by Clapperheads, challenging players to survive a nightmare scenario as a zookeeper on their first night shift. The game is set to release soon for PS4 & PS5.
After dropping on Steam back in September 2024, Zoochosis is now making its way to both PS4 and PS5, although there is no official date and we only have the “coming soon” to go by.
Story and Setting
Players take on the role of a zookeeper who quickly discovers that something is terribly wrong at the zoo. Some of the animals have become infected, transforming into dangerous mutants. As you work through the night, you must not only protect yourself but also attempt to cure the afflicted creatures and uncover the origins of the outbreak.
Gameplay Features
- Interactive Animal Care: Tend to the animals by preparing meals, cleaning enclosures, and ensuring their wellbeing.
- Mutant Infection Mystery: Investigate the cause of the infection, develop a vaccine, and attempt to save the animals.
- Choice-Driven Endings: The fate of the animals—and your own survival—depends on the decisions you make throughout the night, leading to multiple possible outcomes.
Game Mechanics
Zoochosis places a strong emphasis on choice and consequence. Each decision can affect which animals survive and determine the ending you experience. The game blends tense survival horror elements with strategic resource management as you balance the needs of the animals against your own safety.
Release Information
Zoochosis released on September 30, 2024 for PC and should release soon for PS4 and PS5. Players can look forward to a unique blend of horror and simulation gameplay that explores both the challenges of animal care and the dangers lurking in the dark.
Zoochosis stands out for its unique premise and the way it integrates decision-making into horror gameplay, offering a distinctive experience for fans of the genre.
