From Press Release:
STOCKHOLM – August 19, 2025 – During Gamescom Opening Night Live 2025, Swedish indie game publisher Raw Fury and UK-based developer Lunar Software announced that their highly anticipated atmospheric sci-fi horror game, ROUTINE, will launch in late 2025 on Steam and for Xbox platforms as a day one Game Pass title. Those unafraid of exploring what lurks beyond in the unknown can wishlist the game now on Steam and Xbox.
ROUTINE is a first-person sci-fi horror game set on an abandoned lunar base where players explore and investigate their surroundings as they survive against unknown threats.
Set in a retro-analogue future inspired by 80s technology, ROUTINE tasks players with exploring the lunar base in search of answers as to why the base has gone quiet, putting them face to face with an enemy who is certain that they are the main threat. But the discoveries they make will only lead to deeper unknowns.
Key features in ROUTINE include:
-
Investigate a retro-analogue future – Roam through contrasting sectors of the Lunar station, from abandoned malls to deteriorating living quarters.
-
Immersive design and gameplay – Full body awareness, diegetic audio, and a minimal UI create a gripping and atmospheric experience.
-
Explore using tools – The Cosmonaut Assistance Tool (C.A.T.) is vital, and players must use it to access critical terminals, navigate the environment and identify clues.
-
Survive the unknown – Run, hide, or attempt to defend against threats, using the C.A.T. as a last resort.
