First-person horror game Victor’s Video Vault announced
Stingbot Games will deliver a chilling take on 90s video rental spots.
Revealed today, Victor’s Video Vault is a first-person horror game where the final rental of the night transforms the reality inside the store. An announcement trailer can be seen below.
A synopsis for Victor’s Video Vault reads:
Players take on the role of a night shift employee working alone. Stock shelves. Help customers. Prepare to close.
Then the last customer leaves, and what follows isn’t routine.
The final rental of the night begins to rewrite reality inside the store. Each night is shaped by the film that just left the building, transforming the environment into something unstable, unpredictable, and increasingly dangerous.
As the store begins to break down, players must adapt to shifting rules, altered spaces, and escalating threats.
Victor’s Video Vault blends grounded, nostalgic detail with escalating, reality-bending horror, where the store itself becomes the threat, and no two nights unfold the same way.
Key Features
• Reality Changes Every Night
The layout, physics, and behavior of the store shift as it breaks down.
• Survive, Investigate, Progress
Solve environmental puzzles, uncover what’s changing, and make it through the night.
• Secrets Beneath the Surface
Hidden rooms and “deleted scenes” emerge as reality fractures.
• A Grounded 90s World
Hand-crafted pixel visuals and a tactile, analog atmosphere inspired by 1990s video stores.
Victor’s Video Vault will be released on Steam. A release date will be unveiled soon. The game can be wishlisted here.
