The Bloober team has made a name for itself in recent years for its short and enjoyable horror games, starting in large part with the arrival of the first Layers of Fear in 2016. We’ve seen a sequel since then, and now the team creates “horror games”. reimagined” combining elements of the first two Layers of Fear titles into a kind of next-gen remake, arriving in June 2023.
The game was first revealed as “Layers of Fears” last year, though the team has apparently ditched the plurality of titles to revert to the same name as the first adopted game, simply “Layers of Fear”. I got it? We think we just got it.
Anyway, this pseudo remake is looking pretty good, with the new version powered entirely by Unreal Engine 5. We also really liked the first two Layers of Fear games, so we’re intrigued to see what Bloober done with their reinvention!
Anyway, that June release window comes from the IGN Fan Fest trailer above, with the team expected to reveal the full date in the coming months. We’ll post our full recap of the Fan Fest event below.
Are you going to try this ‘remake’ on Xbox Series X|S? Tell us in the comments!
