Animal Use Protocol has emerged as a unique horror adventure game diverging from its predecessors in the Stasis series. It introduces an unsettling environment captured in stunning detail through Unreal Engine 5, presenting a grim world rife with decomposing human remains and grotesque growths.

The protagonists, Penn—a genetically modified chimpanzee—and his sardonic companion, Trip the rat, demonstrate a masterful partnership that pays homage to the comic series We3. Their dialogues exhibit a range of human-like nuances, enhancing the unsettling atmosphere further.

In a recent gameplay trailer shared during the Future Games Show, the developers delved deeper into the narration and gameplay dynamics, revealing layers of interactions that promise to entertain while inducing trepidation.

As players navigate a hazardous world, the utilization of power tools like a gravity gun adds strategic depth—making survival and puzzle-solving intertwined in this nightmarish realm. Scheduled for release in 2026, excitement is building as fans await the chance to experience this bizarre pairing’s journey through horror.
