THQ Nordic and Tarsier Studios are set to launch Reanimal on Friday, 13 February 2026. The highly anticipated horror game, which has been added to more than one million wishlists, will be released simultaneously on PC, PlayStation 5, Switch 2 and Xbox Series X|S. This means the game will be released two weeks before Resident Evil Requiem.

Reanimal is being developed by Tarsier Studios, the creators of Little Nightmares I and II, and published by THQ Nordic. Demos are now available for PS5 and Xbox Series X|S. Players on these systems, as well as on PC, can now immerse themselves in the game. A platform-specific demo for the Nintendo Switch 2 is coming soon.

"In this exclusive, co-op demo, players start at the very beginning, including the reunion of orphaned siblings trying to survive the most dire circumstances. The Boy and The Girl, our protagonists, then begin their desperate search for their missing friends together. Explore eerie environments such as the Mill and Trainyard, and uncover the first fragments of the dark mystery that binds this unsettling world."
