DISPATCHED

The release date for DISPATCHED on PC is July 27, 2026. This roguelike strategy game casts you as a night-shift operator at Pinefall Emergency Dispatch, where you must manage police, fire, and medical units across a CRT-style terminal. While the early hours involve standard procedurally generated calls, the difficulty scales as units disappear and callers begin to sound increasingly non-human.

Success depends on keyboard-only inputs and managing a static meter that punishes every error with escalating glitch effects and horror elements. Between shifts, you can upgrade your terminal to handle dynamic weather and faster response times, but the core challenge lies in maintaining composure as the radio frequency decays. It is a focused, atmospheric simulation for those who want high-stakes resource management paired with lo-fi psychological dread.

Fans of tactile horror sims should wishlist this for its July launch.
