Within two weeks, the Early Access horror game Murky Divers has sold 100,000 copies after its launch in mid-June. Per publisher Oro Interactive, the underwater co-op title has been a successful debut for it and developer Embers. It’s such a get that founder Sam De Boeck said Oro will focus on “catchy, content-creator-focused games.”
De Boeck specifically noted the publisher’s interest in horror. No doubt this is inspired by the success of fellow scary co-op games Content Warning and Lethal Company, both of which have seen commercial and viral success this year.
