Japan – June 23, 2025.
INTENSE Co., Ltd. today announced that its 1–4 player co-op exploration horror game UNDERWARD is now available worldwide on PlayStation®5.
Originally released on Steam on February 5, 2025, UNDERWARD has surpassed 100,000 units sold thanks to its tense, team-oriented gameplay. Players descend into a procedurally generated underground quarantine ward, evading deadly creatures—including the fans’ infamous Seductive Nurse—while transporting and extracting living “TEST-SUBJECTS.”
