Devolver Digital promoted the game during their press conference at E3 2019. An official reveal trailer for the game was uploaded to YouTube by Devolver Digital on June 9, 2019. Gameplay from Carrion was first shown publicly at the 2018 Game Developers Conference. According to tweets by developer Sebastian Krośkiewicz, development on Carrion began at least as early as October 2017. Eventually, the creature returns to its initial containment area and absorbs the last piece of its stolen genetic code, allowing it to reconstitute a human form, which takes the appearance of the scientist it originally infected, before escaping the facility and emerging in a quarantined city as the sun sets.Ĭarrion was developed by Phobia Game Studio, an indie game developer based in Warsaw, Poland. However, Relith security forces arrived and executed the remaining scientist, forcing the creature out into the open and allowing Relith to capture and contain it. The Creature was originally found within an egg-like sack by three scientists, and upon awakening, proceeded to kill two and possess the third. The Creature also encounters material analyzers which, upon entering, trigger flashbacks revealing its origins.

Along the way, the creature discovers pieces of its genetic code removed by the scientists for study and containment, which allow it to evolve, allowing for greater size and more means of both defense and offense. As the organism progresses through the facility, it fights and devours its way through the facility's staff and security forces. The creature breaks out and progresses through the facility in order to find an exit. Plot Īn amorphous entity known only as “The Monster” is held in a containment unit within a research facility owned by a company called Relith Science. As the game progresses, players can obtain upgrades such as the ability to dash-which can be used to break through wooden barricades and access otherwise unreachable areas-and to grow in size. The monster must make its way through a facility, crawling through vents and killing scientists and soldiers.

Players control a red, amorphous, tentacled monster of unknown origin.
