After earning the Player’s Choice award at The Horror Game Awards 2025 last week, Critical Reflex and developer Trioskaz have followed up with a double dose of news for No, I’m not a Human. Not only has the game sold over 850,000 units since its launch on September 15, but fans can now dig into the new “Usual Suspects” update, which adds new characters, a new bonus ending, added events, Steam trading cards and more.

Topping it all off is a brand-new Accolades trailer for No, I’m not a Human.

This game creeps me the fuck out. I swear to God every time I take out the magnifying glass and start examining a picture I expect Pennywise to pop out of the screen when I pan to a new place.
