Following an April Fools Day 2024 debut, the game Content Warning appeared on consoles like the Switch, Switch 2, PS5, Xbox One, and Xbox Series X on April 1, 2026. While it was temporarily free when it first launched on PCs, it does cost $9.99/€9.49/£8.99 on digital storefronts. On Steam, it is now $7.99.
Content Warning is a multiplayer horror simulation. Up to four players don diving suits, grab a camera, and head to a place called “The Old World” to film what they find on expeditions. The key is that you need to survive these encounters with the footage intact so you can upload it and become famous on SpookTube. The first three days determine the rest of the course of your session, as you need to become a success and initially get 480 views by the end of that in order to keep playing. If you do, you can continue expeditions to get more money for upgrades and fame.
Here’s a trailer that shows how it looks and works.
The console launch of Content Warning is accompanied by an update for the PC version. It adds a number of features. One is that it is fully compatible with the Steam Deck. Another is that cross-play is available on all platforms, and we’re able to enable it in the settings.
This is one of multiple “games” to drop on April Fools’ Day 2026. Another is City Connection and Clover Lab’s browser-based baseball game featuring Hololive Vtubers.
Content Warning is available for the Switch, Switch 2, PS5, Xbox One, Xbox Series X, and PC.
