Baroque Decay is working on Catechesis, a horror RPG for PC. The game was announced in 2013 as the studio's first title, but development was suspended when the project grew too large. The studio later revived the project and set a summer 2027 release window.
In June 2026, Baroque Decay released a demo for Catechesis. The demo follows Daniel, a boy possessed by a demon who fights demons in dungeons at night. It includes the first dungeon, main character encounters, and about one hour of play. A trailer accompanied the demo. At that time, the release date was undecided.
After the demo's release, it received an Overwhelmingly Positive rating on Steam, with 99% of more than 700 user reviews positive. The demo was updated with a baseball minigame, a study minigame, and leaderboards. The full game is now set for PC in summer 2027.
