For 30 years, PC gamers have been keeping this cult classic horror game based on a 58-year-old short story to themselves, but next week it’s finally coming to consoles
The cult classic existentialist horror game I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream is coming to PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch on March 27, taking it out of PC exclusivity for the first time since launch 30 years ago.
Considering it’s 30 years old and not necessarily widely known about, I Have No Mouth, and I Must Scream is a 1995 video game based on the 1967 short story by Harlan Ellison of the same name. The game and story follow five different survivors making up the whole of humanity in a post-apocalyptic world devastated by a sentient supercomputer named AM. The late Ellison himself co-designed and co-wrote the game adaptation, and he also provided the voice for AM.
