PAPERHEAD is coming out on September 18, 2026, for PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC via Steam. The game is developed by Paperhead te4m, published by HypeTrain Digital, and it is a fast-paced first-person boomer shooter focusing on movement, intense combat, and an unusual cardboard world.
Players explore an abandoned research complex where cardboard, at least according to everything shown, is anything but harmless. Combat involves shooting opponents, launching enemies into the air, kicking explosive barrels, and using a pencil as a weapon, as well as a tool for altering the environment. PAPERHEAD combines a charming paper visual style with horror elements, brutal action, and an industrial soundtrack.
