Curse of Resthaven, a gothic horror title developed by Hilltop Studios, is set to launch on October 29 for Xbox Series X|S and Xbox on PC, according to the Xbox Wire article.
Players assume the role of Ambrose, the newly appointed governor tasked with restoring the colony while searching for his missing niece Amalia, and must navigate a six-day time loop that resets the island each cycle, retaining only knowledge and progression.
The game blends narrative adventure, trading simulation, deckbuilding and roguelike elements, with wilderness expeditions handled through a card-based system that varies each attempt, and optional content such as moth relics can be discovered by exploring beyond the main map.
Three branching timelines each reveal different aspects of the mystery, and completing a timeline unlocks a fourth true ending; New Game+ allows players to fast-track previously seen content and focus on new variations.
The journal tracks active leads and a timeline of events, while the town map indicates which NPCs are accessible, and community gossip can provide additional clues, encouraging players to revisit locations and engage with townspeople.
