Ten Image Publishing debuted the first trailer for “Huntsman,” an immersive survival horror experience fueled by arachnophobia, at PC Gaming Show Tokyo Direct. The trailer also announced the upcoming Steam demo, which will go live on October 13, 2025, and the full game’s launch on Steam in November.
Developed by solo developer OnTheHouse Studios, in “Huntsman,” players take on the role of the new security guard at Atherton Laboratories when chaos erupts as eight-legged predators infest the hallways. Outnumbered and defenseless, you must find a way to eliminate the threats and lift the facility lockdown to escape.
As you explore the facility, you can divert limited power between sections of the building to access new areas, gather resources, and try to outmaneuver the swarm. Use your flashlight, throwables, and the environment itself to distract, mislead, and evade the deadliest creatures you’ve ever faced. Just remember: one wrong move, and you’re prey.
The trailer also revealed that the Huntsman is not alone, as Atherton scientists have experimented on other arachnids, including the deadly Orb Weaver. Each spider moves, hunts, and reacts with terrifying realism.
“‘Huntsman’ was a way to help overcome my own fear of spiders, and the incredible feedback from players inspired me to turn the demo into a full game,” said OnTheHouse Studio founder Jory House. “As my first commercial product, it’s been a thrilling challenge to navigate, and I can’t wait to show everyone what the full game has to offer.”
The “Huntsman” demo will launch on October 13 on Steam, with the full game available on Steam in November. The game can be wishlisted now.
