Prepare to navigate a haunting, gravity-bending world as LOVE ETERNAL, the unconventional horror platformer from indie developer brlka and publisher Ysbryd Games, arrives on PC via Steam, PlayStation 5|4, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch on Thursday, February 19, 2026. Fans of psychological horror and precision platforming will soon experience a chilling journey through a surreal, otherworldly realm.
A Nightmarish Journey Begins
In LOVE ETERNAL, players take control of teenager Maya, whose seemingly ordinary family dinner turns into a terrifying descent into a fractured, otherworldly domain. When her home collapses and she is whisked away to a labyrinthine fortress, Maya must escape the clutches of a selfish, omnipotent god while unraveling the horrors lurking within.
Navigate crumbling castles, eerie caverns, and surreal landscapes filled with puzzles, deadly traps, and gravity-defying platforming challenges. Players will need to dash, flip, and manipulate momentum, smashing through floating stones to trigger gravity flips, avoiding spikes, shifting lasers, and other lethal obstacles. Precision and timing are critical as the environment itself seems to resist your every move.
Explore Liminal Worlds and Twisted Visions
LOVE ETERNAL immerses players in stunningly unsettling environments: from dank, dripping caverns to underwater grottos and decayed citadels. Towering statues, rotting structures, and blinding spotlights illuminate the haunting biomes. Along the way, Maya encounters other victims of the god and disturbing, corrupted visions of her loved ones, transforming familiar faces into grotesque apparitions that heighten the tension and psychological horror.
Designer Toby Alden explains, “We wanted to explore the subtler aspects of psychological horror with LOVE ETERNAL. Every scene is crafted to create a sense of unease that players can feel instinctively, even if they can’t pinpoint why.”
Precision Platforming Meets Gravity Manipulation
LOVE ETERNAL’s gameplay challenges players to master the flipping of gravity in midair, combining classic platforming with innovative mechanics. Careful planning of jump arcs and momentum management ensures that Maya can traverse treacherous environments and survive encounters that would quickly end a less-prepared adventurer.
The game’s puzzle-platforming and horror elements work in tandem, encouraging players to think creatively while maintaining their nerves under pressure. Each stage builds on previous skills, creating a satisfying progression of tension and discovery.
