Singapore – 14th May 2025 – Digital Happiness, Indonesian developer known for the cult-classic DreadOut series, announces their exciting lineup of titles for 2025 and 2026. In partnership with Singapore-based publisher Soft Source, the pair further extend their history together and take on the indie horror sphere once again with updates on the DreadOut Remastered Collection, and brand-new titles Jurnal Risa: Dark Destiny, Broomstick Exorcist, and the highly anticipated follow-up to the DreadOut series, DreadOut 3.
Since our first project together in 2023 bringing DreadOut 2 to Nintendo Switch and PlayStation consoles, Soft Source has always been excited to collaborate with Digital Happiness to introduce Southeast Asian-centric titles to the global market. Especially with a horror series like DreadOut, partnering with Digital Happiness to elbow into the saturated genre of horror to represent the culture and folklore of Southeast Asia, was a significant achievement for us as a Singaporean-based publisher.
Now celebrating their 11th anniversary, Digital Happiness is excited to announce their slew of titles for 2025 and beyond. Jurnal Risa: Dark Destiny, Broomstick Exorcist, and DreadOut 3 are all currently in development, with Jurnal Risa: Dark Destiny and Broomstick Exorcist to be published by Soft Source on consoles, and DreadOut 3 published by Soft Source on all platforms.
An update on the DreadOut Remastered CollectionAfter the success of the DreadOut Remastered Collection on Nintendo Switch and PlayStation consoles in both digital and physical formats, Digital Happiness and Soft Source are happy to bring the DreadOut Remastered Collection to PC via Steam.
The DreadOut Remastered Collection will be available on Steam today, 14th May 2025, with an Xbox release also planned for the future.
The DreadOut Remastered Collection includes the original cult-favourite DreadOut, and DreadOut: Keepers of the Dark.
When a group of high school students went astray from a field trip, they come across something unexpected; a long-forgotten town, trapped in a state of slumber. What seemed like an innocent stroll turns into disaster as the town reveals its dark and terrible secrets.
DreadOut: Keepers of the Dark follows Linda’s journey into the Mirror Realm; a portal of worlds that connect to 8 haunted dominions ready to greet her.
When the boundary of the living and unseen begin to blur, step into Jurnal Risa’s world, where each shadow holds a story, and every whisper leads you deeper into the unknown.
Jurnal Risa: Dark Destiny is a paranormal mystery visual novel that tells the unsettling, never-before-told story of the Jurnal Risa crew.
Brought to life with full voice acting, beautiful illustrations, and minigames, collect the fragments of the past and piece together a dark destiny.
This is the tale of Jurnal Risa, as recounted to me by Risa herself.
Hang tight! The Digital Happiness crew is still dotting the I’s and crossing the T’s. Jurnal Risa: Dark Destiny is slated for release in 2025, with console versions published by Soft Source.
