Facing the Darkness: The Gothic Survival
VALENCIA, SPAIN — MARCH 3, 2026 — Inverge Studios is proud to announce the release of Peregrino, a haunting isometric survival adventure where faith and steel are your only defenses against a corrupted wilderness. Set in a handcrafted world inspired by 19th-century religious folklore, players must brave the cursed forest of the “land in-between” on a desperate odyssey to reach the mythical New Eden.
The pulse of Peregrino lies in its unforgiving dual cycle. By day, the forest is a shifting labyrinth of scarce resources and hostile entities. Survival is not merely about brute force; it requires tactical mastery to navigate encounters with lost pilgrims scattered throughout the woods. Assisting these souls in their spiritual search is your only way to find meaning in a world consumed by shadows.
But the true test begins when the sun vanishes. Your caravan, the sole bastion of sanity and your central base of operations, is all that stands between you and the terrors of the night. Within its fragile safety, you must craft essential tools and manage dwindling supplies with surgical precision. In Peregrino, every inventory choice is a life-or-death gamble, and your ability to prepare in the dark will determine if you survive to see the dawn.
Key Features:
Survival Strategy: Scavenge, hunt, and craft essential tools to endure a journey through a cursed forest where every resource is a lifeline.
Gruesome and Mysterious Encounters: Face twisted creatures and mystical threats that test your tactical preparation and your ability to survive the unknown.
Spiritual Odyssey: Find and guide lost pilgrims scattered throughout the “land in-between,” assisting them in their personal quests for meaning amidst the darkness.

Strategic Risk & Reward: Navigate the forest with care, manage limited inventory, and decide which resources are worth keeping or transforming into essential tools.
Haunting Gothic Aesthetic: Immerse yourself in a handcrafted world inspired by 19th-century gothic horror and dark religious folklore.
