A free Steam demo for Haunted Paws is live, released on October 8, and the full version is planned for PC, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PS4, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. No release date has been set.
Haunted Paws is a two-player co-op horror adventure from developer LazyFlock. Two puppies rescue their owner from a haunted mansion by solving puzzles and using dog actions such as digging, barking, and sniffing. Players can customize breeds, fur color, and accessories. That description has stayed consistent from the first stories through the demo release, and the game's structure has not changed across coverage.
What has changed is how much of the game is public and where it is headed. By late August, LazyFlock confirmed Switch and Switch 2 versions, put out a gameplay trailer, and said Steam wishlists had passed 900,000. The trailer showed a boss, car driving, and a shooting game segment, which widened the picture beyond the co-op puzzle loop. Japanese support was also confirmed at that point. A release date was undecided.
In October, LazyFlock released the free Steam demo. It improves on a 2025 playtest and adds content, and it includes a Friend's Pass so the second player does not have to buy first. The demo is Steam-only for now. The full version is planned for PC, Nintendo Switch, Nintendo Switch 2, PS4, PS5, and Xbox Series X|S. No release date has been announced.
