A 2.5D slasher platformer created by Swery 65 and Suda 51. Hotel Barcelona's protagonist is stuck in a time loop, the only way out leading through torrents of spilled blood.
Hotel Barcelona is a humorous platformer and a parody of the horror genre. It was developed by White Owls and is the result of collaboration between two experienced developers - Hidetaka Suehiro, known as Swery 65, and Goichi Suda, known as Suda 51.
The protagonist of Hotel Barcelona is stuck in a time loop. The only way out leads through hordes of enemies and hectoliters of spilled blood.
Hotel Barcelona is a side-scroller, tasking the player with moving to the right and mowing down enemy hordes. Our opponents are inspired by popular horror movies, ranging from serial killers, aliens, otherworldly creatures and giant mutated sharks. Combat is fast-paced, requiring constant movement, dodging, blocking, chaining melee attacks into combos and firing away at distant enemies. In-between combat encounters, there's plenty of platforming to be had.
Hotel Barcelona features simple, though colorful, cartoonish 2.5D visuals. The game is rather violent and gruesome, but in an over-the-top, parodic way.

Hotel Barcelona is a 2.5D side-scrolling action roguelite and a creative collaboration between two of Japan's most eccentric game directors, Goichi "SUDA51" Suda (known for No More Heroes) and Hidetaka "Swery65" Suehiro (known for Deadly Premonition). It was released on September 26, 2025, and is currently available on Steam, Xbox, and PlayStation 5.
TheGamer: 3.5 / 5 by Axel Bosso
If you can overcome its tight combat and find beauty in its bizarre world and characters created by SWERY and SUDA51, Hotel Barcelona is a solid roguelite with some innovative additions (I love the Slasher Phantoms) and some very cool moments. If that's something that piques your interest, why don't you check into the hotel and join me?
