Set in the densely cluttered streets of "Kowlong," filled with obscurity and chaos, this battle action-adventure game casts players as the "Hyoki," an entity devoid of memory and physical form. His only motive is to eradicate the monstrous beings known as "Slitterheads" crawling around the city, disguising themselves as humans.
Roaming the vibrant neon-lit cityscape, players must seek out allies among humans known as "Rarities," infiltrate and track dangerous organizations, and engage in battles harnessing the power of blood. As the suspenseful drama unfolds, delve into the mystery behind Hyoki's existence and the appearance of the Slitterheads.
The entity called "Hyoki" finds himself wandering amidst the chaos of Kowlong, plagued by the enigmatic monsters known as "Slitterheads" which mimic humans. Though bereft of all memories, he holds one resolute intention: to eradicate every last Slitterhead. Infiltrating the city, he sets out on a mission to hunt down the Slitterheads masquerading within human society.

Devoid of physical form, Hyoki's ability allows him to possess and control human bodies at will, turning the people wandering the city into his pawns. With this power he can slip through barriers, assume the identity of specific individuals, and infiltrate dangerous areas and organizations. By rapidly switching hosts, he can also traverse the city at high speed.

While human bodies are fragile, Hyoki can burn their life force, turning blood into weapons to confront the ferocious Slitterheads. Even when critically wounded, he can continue fighting by switching hosts efficiently. By possessing "Rarities", specific humans who share high sync with Hyoki, he is able to unleash even more powerful attacks and activate various abilities. The cooperative relationship with these "Rarities" holds the key to uncovering the deepening mysteries in the city of Kowlong.

Slitterhead for PC starts at €15.11 at Difmark, 70% under the €49.99 of the official store — but that is a shared account, not a key of your own. If you want a key tied to your own account, the cheapest is €49.99 at Steam.
That €15.11 already includes the Gocdkeys coupon, so apply it at checkout or the store will show you a higher price.
Just 4 stores stock it, 6 offers in all, so there is little here to push the price either way.
It is €0.62 away from its all-time low (€14.49, back in March 2026).
The Steam Key is expensive right now: above what it usually costs.
It is at €49.99, 194% above the average price of the Steam Key over the last 4 months.
Only 1 stores sell the Steam Key, and with that little competition the price barely moves.
Not counting today, barely any of the 50 days on record were pricier than today; the lowest it has ever cost is €14.99.
Worked out from 96 daily records of the Steam Key for Slitterhead across 1 stores. See the full price history.
The price does not include each store's payment fees. The comparison with its history is always made on the store price, without coupons, because that is how we record it. The analysis only counts Key offers. Shared accounts, Steam Gift and physical editions stay out, because they are not the same product and their prices move differently.
The cheapest route is a shared account at €15.11 at Difmark: you get into an account that already owns the game, but it never becomes yours. A key for your own Steam account starts at €49.99 at Steam, €34.88 more, and that is the sensible option.
The 2 Steam Gift offers start at €66.99, pricier and more prone to issues.
5 of the 6 offers work on US — the Global ones plus the ones issued for your own region.
Critics landed at 65 out of 100 across 61 reviews, with 27% of them recommending it.
One listing is worth ignoring: the shared account that G2A has at €78.72 is more than 5 times the cheapest offer and is not what this game costs. The number to work from is €15.11 at Difmark.
There is no third-party key on offer today, so the choice is between the shared account at €15.11 at Difmark — cheap, but the game never becomes yours — and paying the official €49.99 for a key on your own account. Either is defensible; just know which one you are picking.

What do our users think of Slitterhead for PC Digital?
0
A horror FPS - you experience psychological dread, harsh combat, and surreal environments. It's a slow-burn atmosphere that eventually shreds into action, and it has strange mech monsters. If the visual dissection of reality through horror, intense character experiences, and gameplay-laced dystopia are your thing, you'll probably want to see this.
