About this game
Drop Dead: The Cabin is a multiplayer (1-4 player) survival horror FPS that throws you and a friend into a pulse-pounding, 1980s-inspired nightmare. Developed by Soul Assembly, this PC & VR-compatible shooter blends co-op action, roguelike replayability, and a retro horror aesthetic into a brutal fight for survival.
Lost in the woods, you stumble across a seemingly abandoned cabin. But this is no ordinary hideout. It was once home to the twisted scientist Dr. Monday, whose experiments have unleashed a deadly horde of undead abominations. Now, the forest is crawling with monstrosities, and the only thing standing between you and certain death is your skill, your weapons, and your ability to work as a team.
Fight to keep the power running, the lights on, and the comms active. Let the systems fail, and the undead become faster, deadlier, and harder to see. Every decision matters. In solo or online co-op, teamwork is key. Stay together or split up to complete critical survival objectives. Use the environment to your advantage and fight with precision to survive the night.
Playable in both PC and on VR headsets, Drop Dead: The Cabin brings intense action to every player. Inspired by classic horror films and series like Stranger Things, it blends fast-paced wave shooting with immersive storytelling and endlessly replayable combat.
Do you have what it takes to escape the cabin... or will you join Monday's monstrosities?
