Last Light is certainly an intriguing horror game, but it's a little hard to decipher. With just a 30-second trailer and a Steam page that's largely been translated from the Japanese website, we know that the game is set in an abandoned hospital, and the main character — Lumi — will have to avoid the darkness in order to stay out of the reach of the demons who dwell within.
"If a demon finds you, don't hesitate to run," reads the Steam page. "Having the courage to flee may be your most important tactic." It looks like Lumi doesn't exactly have weapons to fend off the monsters — just a flashlight — but she will be able to find clues that help her figure out what happened to the hospital.
Best of all, the description of the game promises that "the difficulty gradually rises as the story progresses," and that all players will be met with "an utterly despairing ending".
Last Light is out on Steam on the 26th August, with full audio in Japanese, plus subtitles in English, Chinese, and Korean. The Switch version has been confirmed, but has no release date.
Does Last Light look like your kind of spooky fun? Let us know in the comments!

This does look interesting to me. If there's a physical release with everything on the cart I may buy this.
I'll keep an eye on it, although it seems to pretty heavily resemble the Yomawari games.
Is it a visual novel with some game elements are an actual game?
@Ralizah are the Yomawari games worth it on Switch?
"creepy-cute".... Lol
The trailer gave me the impression that this would run on a flick-book and was made by an 8 yr old during their Maths lesson. The animated gif makes it look a bit more ambitious. Looks like a flash game.
@anoyonmus YUP but 1 is better than 2 by a substantial margin so keep that in mind
Will probably get this on either the Switch OLED or the Steam Deck later on whichever ones came out first but for now the GPD Win 3 it is.
@Specter_of-the_OLED well just saying steam deck isn’t coming out till later next year. Switch oled is coming in October
@anoyonmus Couldn't say. They have their fans, though.
I believe the collection is on sale on the eshop atm, actually.
