BLACKOUT: Fatal Exposure is a pixel-art psychological horror adventure game from developer UMINEKOwalKing. In late August, the developer announced that Glowstick Entertainment would publish the title. Glowstick is known as the developer behind Dark Deception, and this deal puts the game under a horror-focused publisher. The game is slated for a PC (Steam) release in 2027, with additional console and mobile versions mentioned in the announcement.
The core gameplay centers on sorting photos over five in-game days. Players must distinguish ghost photos from normal ones, and the choices made during sorting affect the ending. The game is designed without jump scares, instead relying on random events and a multi-ending system to build tension. The cursed photos gradually erode the protagonist's daily life.
On September 2, a demo was announced for Steam, releasing on September 7. The demo runs about 30 minutes and offers a preview of the sorting mechanic. The full version is scheduled for the first quarter of 2027. The later story confirms the same release window and adds no further details beyond the demo date.
