Instead, this test focuses on a deliberately contained gameplay loop that allows us to put some of the game’s most important systems under real pressure.Below, we’ll explain exactly what you can expect from the playtest, what won’t be included yet, and which languages will be suppor…
- Первое тестирование кооперативного хоррора CORDURA начнется 13 октября - 5 October 2026
Тестирование пройдет в два этапа. Первый этап стартует 13 октября с доступом для участников сообщества игры в Discord. Второй этап пройдет в открытом доступе в Steam, и начнется 2 ноября. Каждый этап продлится одну неделю. Разработчики отмечают, что даты могут измениться в зависимости от хода разработки и сроков одобрения со стороны Steam. CORDURA — это психологический хоррор с кооперативным онлайн-режимом для четырех игроков, где рассудок — ваш самый дефицитный ресурс. Пока один игрок координирует действия команды, остальные исследуют постоянно меняющиеся процедурно генерируемые лабиринты в викторианском стиле. Стоит вам утратить рассудок, как ночь начнет имитировать членов вашей команды, подпитывая вашу паранойю.

Hi everyone!Since our appearance at the Future Games Show, we’ve received a ton of messages asking about localizing the game.

- DEVLOG #1 | Living Architecture - 18 March 2026
Hi everyone! First of all, we want to thank you from the bottom of our hearts for the incredible reception during these first few days. We are currently working hard on the gameplay trailer, but in the meantime, we want to dive deep into one of the core pillars of CORDURA: Living Architecture.In the world of CORDURA, mansions have twisted in ways that defy all logic. They aren't just buildings; it feels as if the structures themselves have come to life, mutating and breathing as the night progresses.While many games use procedural mazes, the rooms often end up feeling repetitive or poorly decorated. That’s not what we wanted for CORDURA. We play with what you see, but especially with what you sense. Shadows are constantly shifting, and we need this interplay of light and dark to surprise you at every turn.To be honest, when we started developing this system, we loved the results so much…

All right, my old chuckaboo, it's time to shake daddles and go mafficking. The toffs want us to pluck a few April showers from the insides of yon Ken Bowman. Cheese and crust! Now that's a fancy crib. Look at the shine on these hardwood floors. Still, I don't trust these shadows. Let's step lively now and draw latches so we can shove off and powder our hair down the Bohemian Bungery. ...Cordura is a one-to-four player horror game in which you play a Dishonored extra stealing magic roses from the bellies of shapeshifting mansions. "Science once dared to blur the boundaries of the Night, and now the darkness has returned to reclaim its own," explains the Steam page . "Victorian buildings awaken corrupted by a primal influence, twisting their halls into procedural labyrinths and reducing inhabitants to empty shells that now stalk from the shadows. Read more
