The next installment in the hit indie horror series Layers of Fear is due out sometime in 2023, but in the meantime, developer Bloober Team has released a new trailer for the game while also making a slight name change. While the first entry was a rather short PC game, it more than demonstrated the creative chops of the studio, with the story offering a glimpse into the world of an obsessive artist who's hellbent on completing his magnum opus. A sequel was released in 2019, and fans are now looking forward to the next entry.

Although yet to truly break into the mainstream, the reimagining of the iconic Silent Hill game could see the studio cement its place in AAA horror gaming. While there have been some criticisms about Bloober's previous work, particularly The Medium's depiction of mental health, the Polish studio has more than shown that it has the ability to stand out in the indie scene by offering up some visually stunning and creepy releases.
