Bloober Team's venture into horror began with the Layers series; the upcoming Layers of Fear will be the series' most important work and is scheduled to launch in June 2023. Developed in collaboration with Anshar Studios, it promises to deliver fresh gameplay, chapters, and a visually stunning experience. Here's a brief look at what awaits our dear players.

Built on Unreal Engine 5, Layers of Fear supports Ray Tracing, HDR, and 4K resolution to make the stunning visuals, and your nightmarish experience, as immersive and realistic as possible.
