Two brave puppies, one very haunted rescue mission
Haunted Paws puts a charmingly unusual spin on the haunted-house adventure: two puppies must venture into a spooky mansion to rescue their owner. Its new release-window trailer offers a glimpse of a game balancing eerie creatures and puzzle-solving with the irresistible appeal of pint-sized heroes. That cozy-meets-spooky mix has plenty of room to make its own mark among video game adventures and the imaginative worlds celebrated by gaming culture.
Cooperation is the heart of the haunting
The mansion is more than a backdrop for scares. Players will solve puzzles together and face evil creatures as a pair, making teamwork central to the rescue rather than an optional extra. The game supports local play, while Friend’s Pass lets a player invite a friend to join for free—an inviting way to make the adventure accessible to duos. It’s a setup that may appeal to fans of co-op games on Steam and the shared-play experiences featured by Nintendo.

Make the puppies part of the story
Players can customize their puppies, giving the game’s adorable leads a personal touch before they face the mansion’s supernatural dangers. That contrast is a big part of Haunted Paws’ appeal: a cozy, affectionate premise wrapped around spooky exploration and encounters with hostile creatures. The trailer points toward an adventure designed to welcome players who enjoy both PlayStation games and the playful creature-filled worlds found across Xbox.
Haunted Paws sets a May 2027 arrival
Haunted Paws is set to arrive in May 2027 on Nintendo Switch 2, Nintendo Switch, PlayStation 5, PlayStation 4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox PC, and Steam. That broad release gives friends plenty of ways to plan a shared trip through the mansion, whether they’re playing side by side or teaming up through Friend’s Pass. For now, the new trailer offers an early taste of the rescue mission ahead, with more details likely to shape expectations as the launch approaches. Players can keep an eye on Steam and the PlayStation platform for future game updates.
