Hound Automaton Where Horror Meets Hide and Seek in This Must Play Party Game

Posted on October 21, 2024May 2, 2026 By Ronny Fiksdahl

Scheduled for release on October 21, 2024, Hound: AUTOMATON is the latest offering from Uuvana Studios, blending action, casual gaming, horror, indie creativity, and party game fun into one thrilling package. This title redefines multiplayer entertainment with its innovative gameplay and chillingly immersive environments.

Blending Genres Into One Wild Ride

Hound: AUTOMATON merges multiple genres into a smooth, engaging experience. Whether you’re chasing or hiding, the game offers thrills for action lovers, tension for horror fans, and a casual tone perfect for parties. It thrives in multiplayer settings, offering competitive and cooperative play that keeps players on their toes.

Vision and Studio Direction

Developed and published by Uuvana Studios, this title stands as a testament to their commitment to crafting unique multiplayer titles. By fusing traditional mechanics with new ideas, the team aims to create a gameplay loop that feels both familiar and fresh.

How the Game Works

At its core, Hound: AUTOMATON is a 1vMany survival horror experience. One player begins as the Hound—an automaton hunting human survivors through eerie environments. As the match progresses, those captured become Hounds themselves, increasing the pressure on the remaining humans. It’s a shifting battlefield of trust, betrayal, and suspense.

Atmosphere and Match Design

Each session lasts a tight 5–7 minutes, ideal for party sessions or casual play. Customizable settings allow groups to adjust the horror-to-comedy ratio to their liking, enhancing replayability. Expect creepy maps, clever hiding spots, and escalating tension as the match unfolds.

Post-Launch Support

Uuvana Studios has confirmed ongoing support for the game, including planned updates with new characters, environments, and gameplay features. This approach ensures the game will evolve over time, keeping the community engaged and the matches fresh.
