We're thrilled to announce that DEVOUR's brand new map The Slaughterhouse is now available to play for free! Check out the trailer here:
While you've been patient, we've been busy. We've always wanted to push the boundaries when it comes to the themes of our maps, and in The Slaughterhouse you'll be confronted with our boldest attempt yet to shock you. The Slaughterhouse is tough. We want a win on this map to feel like a well earned achievement. You'll be working together to collect machine oil, bones and pigs, but we'll leave it to you to figure out exactly what you'll need to do with them. We have stain remover, if you need some...
The Slaughterhouse takes place in the recently abandoned meat factory that once served as cult member Nathan's first workplace. Returning to exact revenge on his former colleagues, Nathan has summoned and become possessed by the demon Azazel, leaving bloody destruction in his wake.
Notes discarded around the map will give players an opportunity to learn about Nathan's history with the place he once clocked in and out of.

And Beyond!
It's been a year since The Town, and while we know players have been used to more frequent map releases, game development takes time, especially with a team as small as ours. Previously, we pushed ourselves to burn out in order to get content out more frequently, but that isn't sustainable over the long term. As a team, we're super proud of The Slaughterhouse and the quality the extra development time has given it.
As always, a huge thank you to our incredible community of players, streamers, content creators, fan artists, and supporters across all social media platforms. Your enthusiasm and the fun we see you have with DEVOUR is the reason we are committed to avoiding complacency and continuing to bring you unique co-op horror scares well into the future.
