Last Year: The Nightmare Announced
Every now and again, an indie game starts to make some waves. Today, a game from Elastic Games, a privately-owned video game company started in 2015 in Montreal, is getting some buzz. The game is called ‘Last Year: The Nightmare’ and is a co-op horror game. It will be showcased to the public for the first time at this year’s PAX East convention.
Slated to launch this summer for PC, Last Year: The Nightmare is a 6-player cooperative action horror game where five high schoolers try to escape from a deadly, player-controlled supernatural killer on Halloween night in 1996.
Given the success of the Friday the 13th game, which had a horrible launch, but quickly gained momentum after that rough start, Last Year: The Nightmare could carve its own way into the genre and make a name for itself. Especially if it scares the bejeesus out of us!
According to former Ubisoft Communications Manager Jay Acevedo who is now the Head of Brand and Communications at Elastic Games, “the team has been hard at work and is proud to be able to bring the game to an event like PAX. We value the opportunity to meet our community and answer their questions about the game. We are dedicated to provide an amazing experience to our fans and all PAX attendees who will get to see our game for the first time.”

Special note, taking place April 5th-8th in Boston, PAX East hands-on demos of the game will be available for fans at the Elastic Games’ booth #21097, located in the Boston Convention and Exhibition Center (BCEC).
