Subscribers won’t just be dealing with the undead, though. The August drop brings a diverse mix of genres to the catalog. According to coverage from INDIAN and Zing.cz, the lineup also features the acclaimed psychological survival horror title Signalis, bringing its retro-futuristic, cassette-futurism aesthetic and analog dread directly to console players looking for a slower-burn scare.
