Bloober Team, the studio behind the Silent Hill 2 remake, has announced Onyx: The Dark Grip, a new horror game exclusive to Nintendo Switch 2. The title will be playable only in handheld mode, marking an unusual design choice for a dedicated horror experience. Bloober Team had trademarked the project earlier in the year before today's formal reveal during Nintendo's Direct presentation.

- The studio's shift to handheld-focused horror represents a notable departure from their recent full-scale remake work.
A horror game constrained to handheld play raises questions about how Bloober Team scales atmosphere and intensity for portable screens.
