Psychological horror game Dreamcore from studio Montraluz, is getting a massive new chapter called Playrooms. This expansion is set to drop on June 17, 2025, and it’s coming to just about everything: PC (Steam), PlayStation, Xbox, and Nintendo Switch. Heads up though, the price is going to go up soon, so now’s your chance to grab the game if you want to get all future updates for free. You can also check our full review of the base game here.
Instead of relying on cheap jump scares, the game focuses on a slow, creeping sense of dread. Your goal is to solve puzzles to escape these maze-like environments, which are clearly inspired by the viral “backrooms” phenomenon. It’s less about fighting monsters and more about the quiet, disturbing horror of spaces that just feel wrong.
The Playrooms expansion takes that familiar formula and twists it into something much more personal and deeply unsettling. You’ll find jungle gyms, finger paintings, and playpens all rearranged into a bizarre, dreamlike nightmare. “We’re exploring the infinitely imaginative mind of a child”, says Valentín Iribarren, the game creator at Montraluz. “Mixing those shared memories of childhood into something unsettling was really exciting for us.” The result is a new level that adds about 50% more content, making Dreamcore feel bigger and even weirder than before.
Right now, Dreamcore costs 8.99 € across all platforms. But with the Playrooms expansion arriving on June 17, that price is going to jump to 11.99 €. Here’s the really good news: if you buy the game before that date, you’ll get Playrooms and two more chapters planned for 2026 completely free.
“We wanted to reward our early adopters,” explains Iribarren. “Current and new players can still grab the game at the entry price and enjoy every expansion as a free update.” It’s a pretty sweet deal for a game that’s already earned an impressive “Very Positive” rating on Steam from over 680 reviews.
