Exkee and Vertigo Games are bringing the seventh guest to current-gen platforms.
This iconic game has been reimagined with modern technology to deliver an atmospheric story like no other. Six guests have been invited to a sinister mansion, but something dark is afoot. The wealthy recluse and toymaker, Henry Stauf, lurks in the shadows, and a dark power shrouded in mystery hangs over the house. Who is the seventh guest? What does Henry want with them? Who will live to tell the tale? As you explore the eerie mansion, the puzzles become more challenging and the dangers more imminent. Every shadow, distant creak, and flicker of light builds tension as the house slowly reveals its secrets. The 7th Guest is the ultimate mystery adventure for players who love mind-bending puzzles, haunting exploration, and chilling stories.
Step inside the story. Using cutting-edge volumetric video technology, live-action performances are captured in full 3D, placing you directly inside Henry Stauf’s mansion, where the mystery begins. Real actors appear within the world itself, making every encounter feel immediate and unsettling. The haunted mansion, equally beloved and feared, comes alive around you with high-end visuals and carefully redesigned, all-new, handcrafted puzzles. Each puzzle is woven into the story and rooted in the mansion’s lore, incorporating familiar elements that pay homage to the original.
The mansion shifts and transforms through high-end visuals and clever optical illusions. Investigate every creepy nook and cranny. Unlock new rooms and uncover hidden secrets while keeping your wits about you as the horrors within begin to close in.
The 7th Guest was first released for DOS in April 1993. A Philips CD-i port followed later that year, and then versions were released for Mac in 1994, Windows in 1997, iOS in 2010, Linux in 2013, and Android in 2015. A remake of this interactive, cinematic, puzzle-adventure game will be released in 2026 for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series, PC, and Nintendo Switch.
