Developer: Kotake Create

The Exit 8 is a 2023 walking simulator video game developed and published by Japanese indie developer Kotake Create. The game revolves around the player walking through a Japanese metro station passageway, trying to spot inaccuracies to reach the exit of the station. The game was released on Steam on 29 November 2023 and was released for Nintendo Switch on 17 April 2024 and for PlayStation 4 and PlayStation 5 on 8 August 2024 under the publisher Playism. A virtual reality version co-developed and published by MyDearest Inc., dubbed The Exit 8 VR, released on 11 July 2024 for the Meta Quest 2, Pro and 3.

The Exit 8 took nine months to develop and was designed to be made in a short amount of time and on a low budget. The game was inspired by the "surreal" atmosphere of underground passageways as well as the Japanese horror game I'm on Observation Duty, which inspired the game's looping mechanic. The setting was modelled after several Japanese metro stations, including the Kiyosumi-shirakawa Station in Koto, Tokyo.

The Exit 8 received positive reviews, with many critics praising the game for its psychological horror and realistic environment, although critiqued the game for its short length and lack of replayability. Additionally, the game has received over 1 million downloads. In the wake of the game's release, many games released that took heavy inspiration from Exit 8 and were subsequently dubbed "Exit 8-likes". A sequel to the game called Platform 8 was released on 31 May 2024.
