‘Zoochosis’ Comes to PlayStation and the Epic Games Store on August 25 [Trailer]

Clapperheads’ zookeeper body horror title Zoochosis will be making the jump to PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 later this month on August 25. The game will also be launching on the Epic Games Store on the same day. On top of that, the PlayStation and Epic Games Store releases will launch with an update that includes enhancements to the overall game, alongside gameplay-specific improvements and new animals. The update will, of course, also be headed to Steam.

Zoochosis is a first-person simulation title that utilizes a bodycam perspective to give your body horror experiences that extra personal touch. You play a zookeeper about to start their first night shift. As you suit up and go about your rounds, you notice some strange behavior from some of the animals in the enclosures. It turns out that these animals have a parasite that is causing some nightmarish mutations in the zoo population. The bloodthirsty, murderous, body horror type of mutations. And it’s spreading.

You must identify the infected animals and make vaccines to cure them before the parasite spreads out of control and to the wider zoo. In doing so, you’ll be uncovering the mysteries of the zoo and save the animals in order to save yourself. Your choices will ultimately determine the ending.

Along with dealing with the infected, you’ll also have to keep up with your duties as a zookeeper for the uninfected animals. That means taking care of them, choosing and preparing their meals, as well as restock and clean up after them in their respective enclosures.
