What Terrible Lizards is

Your car breaks down beside Dalton’s Dinos, a fading Route 66 attraction in 1992 New Mexico. In Terrible Lizards, a voice on a telephone asks you to find a missing child, while the empty attraction begins to reveal what is hiding beneath it.

You have no weapons. Survival depends on running, climbing, wall-running, bouncing and sliding past the creatures chasing you. Between those pursuits, tapes, notes and recordings help explain the place. The hook is making movement your survival tool instead of treating a monster encounter as another ammunition check.

WDR Studios confirms the full release for 29 October 2026 on PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S, matching Steam. A separate Steam demo is currently linked. This profile is an introduction to the official game information, without a played-build verdict.
