Bahnsen Knights, the third visual novel in a series inspired by mid-20th century pulp fiction and ‘80s home computer graphics from developer LCB Game Studio (@lcbgamestudio) and publisher Chorus Worldwide (@ChorusWorldwide), has shifted gears to a new December 14 release date on Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, PlayStation 5|4, and Nintendo Switch, as well as PC and MAC via Steam.
Originally expected to be released Oct. 26, the delay comes after the unexpected passing of artist Fernando “Fer” Martínez Ruppel’s sister. Fer pays tribute to her in a Steam Post today. Bahnsen Knights is dedicated to her memory.
As the two-man team picks back up work in an attempt to return to a sense of normalcy, they are putting the finishing touches on the third title in this trilogy of tales inspired by 1950s pulp fiction and 80s home computer graphics. A new demo is available now on Steam for PC and Mac as part of the October Steam Next Fest, featuring the first two chapters of the game.
Explore a corrupt county laden with life-threatening tornadoes and a dark, twisted cult convinced the devil’s sending these massive storms to rip through lives and landscapes. Gain the trust of the locals as Boulder, an undercover detective investigating the disappearance of his past partner and old friend, Cupra. Steer the narrative in multiple directions by making heavy, life-altering decisions.
Follow cult leader Toni, former car salesman and head of the Bahnsen Knights, into dangerous territory: the worldviews of dark, deranged men. Navigate around a deadly fleet of 1983 Ford Sierras, investigate local watering holes like Danny’s Bar, and discover what exactly these “route exorcisms' are that everyone keeps talking about. Play minigames like solitaire and find out why the cult has Lou Hill, the paranormal investigator also in Mothmen 1966 and Varney Lake, in the trunk of one of their cars.
Bahnsen Knights will be available on Thursday, December 14, 2023 on Xbox Series, Xbox One, PlayStation 4 and 5, and Nintendo Switch, as well as PC and Mac via Steam for $9.99 / €9.99 / £8.49. Play the first two chapters of the game on Steam today with the new demo that has been released for this October’s Steam Next Fest.
