The protagonist wields a weapon that consumes their own blood as ammunition while exploring a Brutalist underground tomb to obtain four secret treasures said to grant any wish. It is the third entry in DreadXP's experimental small-scale XP ULTRA series and runs 1 to 2 hours. Available now on Steam for PC at 20 percent off until October 2.","whyItMatters":"The release extends DreadXP's XP ULTRA line, a small-scale experimental label, and pairs a full-blood-as-ammo mechanic with a 1-to-2-hour runtime in a Brutalist tomb.","webCardHtml":"\u003cp\u003eThe game\u0026#39;s weapon draws on the player\u0026#39;s own blood for ammunition, and the setting is a Brutalist-style underground tomb rather than a conventional haunted house. Four trials structure the run, and ancient beings watch the player throughout. Clearing the game unlocks a speedrun mode, which suits a title DreadXP bills as playable in one sitting.\u003c/p\u003e\u003cp\u003eThe Steam listing carries a 20 percent discount through October 2. Games From The Abyss developed the title alongside publisher DreadXP.\u003c/p\u003e","blueskyPost":"CONCRETE BURIAL runs 1 to 2 hours, and that runtime is the XP ULTRA pitch: a blood-as-ammo horror FPS scoped to a single sitting rather than a campaign. DreadXP is selling brevity as the product.","twitterPost":"CONCRETE BURIAL runs 1 to 2 hours. DreadXP built XP ULTRA around games short enough to finish in one sitting, not around length.","threadsPost":"CONCRETE BURIAL runs 1 to 2 hours, which is the XP ULTRA model itself: DreadXP bets on games you finish in one sitting rather than on campaigns measured in dozens of hours. The blood-as-ammo mechanic has to land inside that window, because there is no room to hide a thin loop.","newsletterBlurb":"DreadXP and Games From The Abyss released CONCRETE BURIAL, a retro-styled first-person horror game for PC on Steam.
