As the upcoming debut from developer Bokeh Game Studio under the direction of Silent Hill creator Keiichiro Toyama, Slitterhead is set to be one of this year's most highly anticipated horror releases. With its blend of action elements alongside disturbing creature designs endemic to the survival horror genre, however, this title has subverted the expectations surrounding the work of its creator. Many similar titles have seen players taking on the role of a survivor struggling to make it through a nightmarish scenario. Rather, Slitterhead sees the player taking on the role of a disembodied spirit known as the "Hyoki" capable of claiming a multitude of victims for their own ends.
