If you’ve been holding out—and I have to be honest, missing out—on playing developer Wrong Organ’s psychological-horror title Mouthwashing, well now you have no excuse. Publisher Critical Reflex announced today that Mouthwashing will be heading to PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Ni🍃ntendo Switch later this year.
The unique horror game that uses nostalgic PSX-st💙yle visuals to tell the haunting tale of the doomed crew aboard a space freighter called thღe Tulpar was released on Steam in September 2024 and has sold over 500,000 copies on the platform. According to Critical Reflex, fans interested in a physical edition on the PS5 or Switch will have the opportunity to .
Honestly, Mouthwashing is one of those games that that least you know going into it, the better. If you’re a fan of psychological horror games that are a bit out there in terms of narrative and setting, you won’t find a better example. However, if you want to have somewhat of an idea of what to expect, here is the premise:
In Mouthwashing you explore the story of a dying crew aboard a shipwrecked space freighter hauling mouthwash across the expanse of space. You’ll switch between various crew members in first-person as you explore what caused the shipwreck as well as what has transpired since, all while trying to come up with a gameplan. The ship will only stay powered for a few months, and food will run out well before then. But at least there’s mouthwash, right? For the most part it’s a narrative-driven experience, and one well worth experiencing.
The crew of the Tulpar and Mouthwashing crashlands on♏ PlayStation, Xbox Ser♑ies X|S, and Nintendo Switch later this year. Those interested in playing now can do so on PC via Steam.
