JIAOHUN, a domestic first-person horror game developed by 12AM BLACKOUT, has unveiled a new gameplay demo trailer (from the exhibition version). It showcases a story set in Xianyu Town, Baishui County, during the 1990s. As the new millennium approaches, Everythinggj here seems frozen on the eve of change. Players will return to the small town, following traces left by residents to uncover untold stories from the past. The game is scheduled to launch on PC (Steam) and PlayStation 5 in 2027.
Photos on the wall, tea sets on the table, curtains by the door, and striped tarps covering the furniture together outline a living space that feels familiar yet strangely off. Players navigate through it from a first-person perspective, reading letters and examining items to find clues in the subtle details. As exploration deepens, figures appear within the yellowed viewfinder of a camera, raising new questions about the history of this house.
This trailer presents JIAOHUN's narrative approach, which combines environmental exploration, object interaction, and cinematic storytelling, while hinting at character relationships and the town's past.
The Steam store page for JIAOHUN is now live. Interested players can visit the Steam store page to add the game to their wishlist, and join the official QQ group 1075108782 to follow future development updates and discuss the game.
