Hotel Barcelona, the collaborative effort from Swery65 (Deadly Premonition) and Suda51 (Killer7, No More Heroes), will launch for PS5 on 26th September 2025, it's been confirmed. The game will be available digitally on the PS Store and a physical edition is also coming, priced at £24.99 / $29.99. Pre-orders for the boxed copy are live now.
There's no new trailer to accompany today's release date announcement, but you can watch an old one above.
For those unaware, Hotel Barcelona is a 2.5D Metroidvania set inside a hotel that's been turned into a slaughterhouse by the USA's worst serial killers. "When rookie U.S. Marshal Justine crashes near the hotel grounds, she’s pulled into a terrifying reality — and forced to unleash the monster lurking inside her mind: Dr. Carnival."

You can play alone or in online co-op with up to three other friends, all working to clear the floors of the hotel hosting serial killers based on VHS-era horror characters. When you die, your corpse becomes an ally for your next attempt, and you're said to build "strength" by utilising rogue-lite mechanics.
A press release adds: "Expect the unexpected — from unhinged humor to meta-narratives, non stop action and brutal boss fights that will leave you stunned (and slightly disturbed)." Hotel Barcelona will come to PS5 on 26th September.

That UI is deliciously dreadful. What an assault on the frontal lobe. It’s going to be janky but also amazing.
It looks bad, but also kinda amazing (...?). Makes sense given the collab.
I've never been high before, but I imagine it feels similar to watching that trailer.
Now Suda working with Swery?! Suda loves worked with plenty of big name / legendary devs huh.
Anyway. This looks interesting and the vibe feels like a mixed of The Silver Case x Let It Die. The physical only 30 bucks too. I'll put it on my wishlist for sure.
This is my most anticipated game of the year. Let’s hope for a collector edition with artbook.
This looks insane. I'm really not sure if I want to play this or not as it really does look unhinged. Part video game part carcass video and for some unknown reason I kept expecting hamburger lady by throbbing gristle to start playing..I need to go have a shower..
Thats one hotel i dont want to spend a night in. Game looks mad tho, i expected nothing less from this guy.
This game was in development for like eight years or something. I kinda accepted that it will never come out.
It's a 2D action roguelike, not a Metroidvania.
Looks like the game developer took lsd before he made it
"...and take my money".
I will be buying this day one!
