Hide the Corpse May Be PSVR2’s Most Morbid Game Yet

It looks cute and colourful, but Hide the Corpse may just be the most morbid release on PSVR2 to date.

The game is exactly what it sounds like: you’ve got a dead body and you need to stash it before the cops arrive. The better you hide it, the more points you’ll earn. Weird.

Here’s how the official blurb pitches it:

“Hide The Corpse, the chaotic and quirky VR body-hiding sandbox is launching on PlayStation. As a player, you will be tasked with stashing a body in one of six stages during a four-minute window. Don’t get caught!”

This obviously plays to PSVR2’s strengths, because it requires a lot of faffing with physics. For example, you can pick up objects to cover the body – or drag the corpse into a freezer or fridge.

It’s just so damn dark as a concept, isn’t it?

The trailer says the game is due out on 18th August but the blurb mentions 20th July, so we’ll double-check which release date is accurate.

Either way, have you got the appetite to try something like this? Even though it’s clearly all slapstick and tongue-in-cheek, we’re a little surprised this has been made.
