Sucker for Love: Date to Die For brings eldritch seduction on February 14

DreadXP and Akabaka have announced that Sucker for Love: Date to Die For, the sequel to 2022’s Sucker for Love: First Date, is coming out on February 14th. That’s Valentine’s Day for you romantics out there.

The release date was actually announced last week as part of The Indie Horror Showcase, and I have absolutely no idea how I missed it. Sucker for Love: First Date, if you recall, held a prestigious position as one of “Zoey Handley’s Top 10 Picks of 2022.” It’s a dating sim in which you perform arcane rituals to win the heart(s?) of an existential threat to humanity. I love it for its unique take on the genre, as well as its spot-on sense of humor.

Sucker for Love: Date to Die For has had a demo for yonks, but I’ve yet to try it. Rather than cast you as a lust-driven cultist trapped in their apartment, this one has you kidnapped and in need of escape. Damn, these ladies really know what I’m into. I wonder if Hastur will be in this one. The way she says “Yhtil” puts the wobble in my knees.

Sucker for Love: Date to Die For incorporates the 360-degree camera of Phasmophobia and includes more exploration. At the forefront of all the press is the dateable Rhok’zan, The Black Goat of the Woods. I’m down. I love a girl with horns.

I now have plans for Valentine’s Day because Sucker for Love: Date to Die For is coming out on February 14, 2024 for PC.
