Alisa: Developer’s Cut – A Nostalgic Dive into PS1 Resident Evil Vibes
The upcoming horror game, Alisa: Developer’s Cut, is set to evoke the nostalgic essence of classic PS1 horror titles like Silent Hill and Resident Evil. During the PS1 era, games popularized various tropes, including tank controls, pre-rendered backgrounds, fixed camera angles, and atmospheric lighting, all of which contributed to the heightened scare factor that defined the horror gaming experience of that time.
While some modern attempts, like Outbreak, have aimed to recreate the look and feel of those iconic PS1 classics, not all have managed to strike the right balance. However, successful endeavors in this direction are now expanding their reach to broader platforms, exemplified by Alisa: Developer’s Cut. The game, featured in a recently released YouTube trailer, is slated to launch on Xbox, Switch, PS4, and PS5 on February 6, 2024.

Alisa: Developer’s Cut follows the story of Alisa, the central character, who finds herself in a Victorian-style mansion inhabited by mechanized monstrosities and eerie dolls. The trailer showcases scenes reminiscent of the locations, settings, and ambiance found in the PS1 Resident Evil games, with the protagonist drawing parallels to Alice from Alice in Wonderland. Visual backgrounds reminiscent of RE1’s mansion and corridors promise a familiar yet fresh experience, culminating in a final shot that pays homage to RE1’s iconic first zombie encounter.
Originally in development for the Switch in 2020, Alisa was initially released on PC in 2021 and received positive reviews for its intriguing premise and high nostalgia factor. The upcoming Developer’s Cut for multiple platforms is set to include all previously released content, along with quality-of-life improvements aimed at enhancing gameplay smoothness.
With its debut on multiple consoles, Alisa: Developer’s Cut seeks to captivate a new audience. While games in this genre can be hit or miss, the persistent demand for classic and nostalgic horror experiences is evident. The positive reception on PC suggests that Alisa has the potential to join the ranks of cult classics like Fatal Frame and Eternal Darkness. The attention-grabbing trailer alone is enough to generate anticipation among players, making this hidden gem a must-watch in the horror gaming landscape.
