Introducing Silent Road, a first-person psychological horror game where you play a taxi driver working the night shift in a forested region of Japan known for an unusually high suicide rate and sights of supernatural phenomena. The further you get into the night, the scarier it gets. It's in development for PC.
Developer Endflame describes Silent Road as such: "What begins as routine work becomes a descent into psychological horror as passengers grow stranger, roads grow colder, and forces beyond the natural world draw closer. Through tense rides and disturbing encounters, you must uncover the mystery that haunts the forest before it consumes you completely." Take a look at the reveal trailer above and the first screenshots in the gallery below.
You'll need to assist passengers with their very unsettling requests, navigate through haunting foggy roads, and uncover the mysteries on the road and beyond it.
Silent Road is due out in 2026. Wishlist it on Steam if you're interested.
