![]() ![]() On a side note, my biggest fear while writing this article has been accidentally calling it Layers Of Fears (plural) and I’m glad this nightmare can end. Perhaps Layers Of Fear can bring back the spooks when it launches on consoles and Steam this June. In her review, Alice said “I did enjoy The Medium for what it was, which feels more like a set-piece puzzle game in a cool gothic setting,” even if it “isn't scary in the slightest.” ![]() Apart from that, the games will have the same puzzle-focused exploration and hallucinatory jump scares they're known for.īloober Team have been a bit hit-or-miss when it comes to their horror outings, but their latest trip with The Medium worked well enough for AliceB, even though she didn’t wet herself out of fear. Uncover the visions, fears and horrors that entwine the painter and finish the masterpiece he has strived so long to create. The series will also have an “expanded plotline” by adding the “never-before-told story of The Writer, which will tie everything together.” The first two games explore the workaholic lives of The Painter and The Actor, so I guess The Writer rounds out their tortured artist trilogy. Buy Layers of Fear (2016) Xbox Delve deep into the mind of an insane painter and discover the secret of his madness, as you explore a vast and constantly changing Victorian-era mansion. Playing through remastered collections can be a little jarring when the games differ so drastically, so I like the idea of tying the two games together with new features. New “core mechanics” will be added to both games, making them more coherent when played back-to-back. Although, Bloober are giving the games more than just a new lick of paint. The collection features the first two games - Layers Of Fear and Layers Of Fear 2 - alongside all of their DLC. Layers Of Fear(s) is partly a glossy, Unreal Engine 5-powered repackaging of the series that supports ray tracing. We now have a clearer view of what it really is ahead of its release this June, and it’s also (confusingly) changed its name back to Layers Of Fear, singular. At the time it was hard to gauge if the game was a sequel, a pseudo-remake, or something in between. ![]() The studio is reportedly working on multiple games simultaneously, so there's still a chance for Bloober Team to get in on the Silent Hill franchise.Last year, developer Bloober Team unveiled Layers Of Fears, the next entry in their first-person horror series. These rumors came to a head just before the Summer Game Fest kickoff show this year - but turns out, it was Layers of Fears all along. Last year, Bloober Team entered into a partnership with Konami, the publisher of the Silent Hill franchise, fueling rumors that the studio was working on a remake of Silent Hill 2. A full sequel came out in 2019, and throughout the years Bloober Team has partnered with major studios to create spooky games including Blair Witch and The Medium. But I can tell you there’s a reason why we called it Layers of Fears."īloober Team launched its original horror franchise in 2016 with Layers of Fear and an expansion subtitled Inheritance. We’ve worked out a new approach, something that is maybe not yet obvious. "Our plan was to recreate the games, but we didn’t want to make it a simple collection of two remastered games. "We are bringing back a franchise that is really special for us, in a new form that will give players a truly fresh gaming experience and that will shed new light on the overall story," Bloober Team CEO Piotr Babieno said in a press release. ![]()
