Santa Studio Announces Laica, A 3D Survival Horror Set On A Space Station
Santa Sunrise opened the Steam store page and released an announce trailer for Laica on October 8. The game is a first-person 3D survival horror developed by the company's game studio Santa Studio and published by ambr, the company behind the work-focus app gogh: Focus with Your Avatar. It is ambr's first title as a publisher. The release is planned for 2027 on PC via Steam, with the price undecided. Players wake in HOME, a residential facility floating in outer space, and meet Laica, a girl who has been living there alone. Meals, music, conversation, and zero-gravity drifting are the cohabitation side. The other half is exploration: a space facility twisted beyond recognition by an unknown thing, where creatures roam in darkness and the player gathers items while evading them. As exploration and return repeat, abnormalities reach HOME and eventually Laica. The choices the player makes during exploration determine the ending. Voice is in Japanese, with subtitle support for Japanese, English, Simplified Chinese, and Traditional Chinese.
