Sweetheart is breakup horror made interactive

Another game that was announced during today’s Future Games Show is Sweetheart. Described as a game that “lifts the would-be wedding veil to reveal a bloodstained love story,” it’s a first-person and narrative driven horror game about a bad breakup.

“A-List pop star Skylar Maxine is hot right now, but her boyfriend of 15 years, Gabe, doesn’t think things are turning out as they planned when they were kids. True love turns violently into terror as Skylar takes the inevitable breakup…poorly. Endure an emotional onslaught of existential nightmares as Gabe attempts to escape the grasp of Skylar’s horrific new form.

Navigate a surreal world altered by Skylar’s psychological break and settle into a thoughtful horror story revolving around the stigma of mental illness, dependent identities, and abusive relationships.“

Skylar’s new single, ‘Yes, Yes, Yes,’ comes to streaming services on Friday.

Sweetheart is in development for current generation consoles and PC, and will release next year.
