Scorn<\/a> is the type of video game that if you were to merely see screenshots or even a trailer of it you might not exactly know what you were looking at. Knowing that this will be the case for a great many folks, we\u2019ve put together this guide that explains just what Scorn is, the Scorn release date and a whole lot more besides.  <\/p>\n\n\n\n

What Sort Of Video Game Is Scorn?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"scorn<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Based on what we know so far about Scorn, we know that the Ebb Software developed effort is a first-person horror adventure that has players wandering around a series of H.R. Giger inspired hellscapes as they seek to escape what amounts to a very squishy, very grotesque prison where everything bleeds and screams all the time. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Though Scorn does include a fair amount of first-person shooter action with various stomach churning firearms, ammo is limited and the game imposes not just conundrums upon the player to be solved, but other gameplay styles too such as the need to avoid confrontation. Perhaps the most surprising thing about Scorn, other than its palpably gross aesthetic, is that the game features absolutely no cutscenes whatsoever with the narrative instead being told from within the game itself. Oh and the protagonist has no skin either, so that\u2019s nice to know. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scorn Release Date – When And Where Can I Play Scorn?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"scorn<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

In a move as unusual as its artstyle, Scorn’s release date has been pulled forward. Instead of releasing on the 21st of October, 2022 Scorn will be coming to you on October the 14th, 2022. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scorn will be getting a full release on PC via Steam, while console versions of Scorn currently remain exclusive to the Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S consoles – though that certainly doesn\u2019t rule out Scorn coming to PlayStation 5 at some point in the future. So, if you happen to own a reasonably good PC (see more on that below) or either one of the Xbox Series consoles, you\u2019re good to get yourself a whole heap of meaty and squishy weird with Scorn.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scorn Weapons – How Do The Weapons In Scorn Work?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"scorn<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Despite looking like a fever dream marriage of H.R. Giger and Zdzis\u0142aw Beksi\u0144ski\u2019s most visually arresting works, Scorn does nevertheless feature a good selection of weapons that players can use to put down the various horrors that are looking to do, well, horrible things to you. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

The first weapon that we know of is essentially a DOOM style single-barreled shotgun, albeit one that looks like a handheld spinal cord with a firing mechanism and which literally snaps in half, with internal organs exposed and all each time you reload it. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Another weapon that has been revealed is a massive, pulsating horror-fossil that basically shoots out a tongue which harpoons the face of the enemy, before allowing you to stomp them off – leaving a horribly destroyed prone form as a result. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Finally, Scorn would also appear to have a grenade launcher of sorts in its horrific arsenal, though the actual launcher itself seems to be embedded in what appears to be a chassis made of bone with heart style valves protruding from the top. Because of course it does. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scorn\u2019s Visual Influences – What Makes Scorn Look So Unique?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"scorn<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Serbian developer Ebb Software will be first to tell you that Scorn is heavily inspired by the grimly surrealist works of Swiss artist H.R. Giger and Polish dystopian painter Zdzis\u0142aw Beksi\u0144ski. From the uncomfortably crunchy, squishy gore and mist-filled world that looks like it could exist in the Alien universe, through to weapons that snap and squelch with uncomfortable aplomb during use and the enemies themselves that either lack a face entirely or resemble horrendously massive, shambling phalluses, Scorn\u2019s visual style is delightfully horrible and possibly sleep murdering stuff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scorn On Kickstarter – How Did Scorn Begin Development?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"scorn<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Long before its (re)emergence in 2020, developer Ebb Software originally went down the crowdfunding route for Scorn in a bid to get the game made on their own terms. Intended to be released in two parts, the first Kickstarter effort for Scorn failed to secure the necessary level of funding in December 2014. After gaining private investment in 2015 and then embarking on a successful second Kickstarter campaign in 2017, Scorn would ditch its previously mooted two part release strategy in favour of a unified game that would be quietly locked in development before being fully revealed in 2020 for PC and Xbox Series X and Xbox Series S platforms. <\/p>\n\n\n\n

Scorn System Requirements – Can My PC Run Scorn?<\/h2>\n\n\n\n
\"scorn<\/figure>\n\n\n\n

Despite looking like something of an odd duck to put it mildly from an aesthetic standpoint, Scorn nonetheless boasts a wealth of technically accomplished visuals that encompass all manner of sophisticated lighting, shadow and other such effects to make it stand confidently alongside other contemporary offerings. With that in mind, can your PC run Scorn? To answer that question, we have you covered below with the Scorn minimum and recommended PC system requirements which seem rather reasonable to say the least.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
