February 16, 2022 – Drop Dead: The Cabin, a heart-pumping intense co-op survival game and prequel to the much loved Drop Dead: Dual Strike, today has launched on the official Meta Quest Store for $24.99/£18.99/€22.99. Additionally, Drop Dead: Dual Strike & Drop Dead: The Cabin will be bundled together at 33% off from the 16th of February 2023!
“We are proud and excited to be launching our first game as Soul Assembly’ Said David Solari, CEO at Soul Assembly. “We were inspired by classic teen horror movies and TV shows like Stranger Things and wanted to bring that vibe and experience to life in the most immersive and intense format available, VR!”
Developed by indie studio Soul Assembly, the latest game in the Drop Dead series puts players in the role of two backpackers lost in the woods looking for somewhere to hunker down. By chance, they discover an abandoned cabin, unaware it was once occupied by the mad scientist Dr. Monday and the abominations he created.
In Drop Dead: The Cabin, players need to get ready for the ultimate battle for survival! The night is filled with danger and the undead are at your doorstep. You will fight for your life to keep the power, lighting, and communication systems up and running at all times. But be warned, let the generator fail and the lights go out, rescue will be delayed and the zombies will become even deadlier and harder to see. Teamwork is crucial when playing co-op. The best fire team will know when to stay together, when to divide and conquer, and when to focus on finding resources. The night is dark, the danger is real, are you ready to make your escape or fall to Monday's monstrosities?

Easy to play, difficult to master, surviving the Cabin is extremely challenging. Each playthrough will always be different, as objectives, encounters, key locations, and pickups are remixed each run. With a run length suitable for multiplayer and VR comfort, each session is designed to be a unique, harrowing challenge.
