Resident Evil Tribute Daymare: 1998 Gets PS4, Xbox One Release Date

If you love survival horror games, especially ones that are either directly from or inspired by those made in the '90s, then April 2020 is the month for you.

Daymare: 1998 is coming to PlayStation 4 and Xbox One on April 28, 2020 across North America and Europe. You might know that is not long after the Resident Evil 3 remake release date, on April 3, 2020. Yep, you're being spoiled this April.

The PS4 version of Daymare: 1998 will be available both in physical and digital form, while the Xbox One version will only be available digitally.

Daymare: 1998 started out life as Resident Evil 2 Reborn when it was announced in July 2015. That was just a month before Capcom revealed its own Resident Evil 2 remake and forced Italian indie studio Invader Games to shut down its fan-made homage.

But Invader wasn't deterred and instead started making its own third-person survival horror game that builds upon the work done already, but swapping out everything Resident Evil 2 for original ideas and names.

Fast-forward to September 2019 and Daymare: 1998 was released for PC. As is intended, it's pretty similar to Resident Evil 2, featuring a story told through multi-character perspective, environmental puzzles, over-the-shoulder shooting, and inventory management.

You play as an elite soldier, a helicopter pilot, and a forest ranger as they set out to investigate a deadly virus outbreak. Naturally, there will be plenty of horrible creatures to shoot or avoid along the way.
