Black Lantern Collective released HR: Human Remains on September 29, 2026. The first-person puzzle adventure costs 1,450 yen including tax, with a 10 percent release sale dropping it to 1,305 yen through October 13. Developer dennisCorner built the game around an ordinary office worker who takes orders from a demon boss and completes duties to keep the right to survive. Humanity lost a war against monsters and faces extinction, with the future holding outcomes such as being food, sacrifices, or slaves. Work yields Survival Tickets, described as the only means of avoiding becoming prey. Players talk with survivors and monsters, learn the rules of the new society, and explore a ruined city. A demo is available on the Steam store page, and the game supports Japanese.
On the Steam page, the game is listed with a multi-ending structure that changes based on player choices, and the collapsed city holds hidden locations and information to find. Items can be collected and used to decorate a rest room. The trailer shows puzzle solving, conversations with monster workers, gunfights, and a scene of sacrificing an arm, and the monsters range from near-human appearances to large enemies.
dennisCorner developed the title and Black Lantern Collective published it. The Steam page news puts the development period at about two years. It also states the original plan was a low-budget horror game with only ghosts, and that rules and ideas specific to this world appeared as the setting was explored further. The 1,305 yen price applies until October 13.
