Developer Drama

Italian indie developer Santa Ragione has revealed that its upcoming horror game Horses has been banned from Steam without clear explanation, potentially dooming the studio to closure. The narrative-driven title, set for release on December 2, 2024, on alternative PC storefronts, explores themes of guilt and power dynamics through unsettling farm imagery. The ban, stemming from a 2023 submission, has severely limited the game's market access, threatening recoupment of development costs.
