Horror masters Bloober Team has released a brand-new teaser of its upcoming reimagined horror, Layers of Fear.
Containing 11-minutes of "gameplay walkthrough", the teaser sees us "follow the Painter from the original Layers of Fear, and join the Writer – a recently unveiled character – for a closer look at the latest installment in the Layers franchise".
"As The Writer, enter the lone and ghastly Lighthouse – a newly-introduced location – and uncover an untold story that links all of the Layers’ characters and events together," the studio teases. "Unravel secrets, solve puzzles, and face the threats of the old Mansion that can only be solved with a lantern – a new and essential tool to confront the nightmares in the game!"
But why read about it if you can watch it? Check it out below:
Don't forget, Layers of Fear includes new "vibrant visuals powered by Unreal Engine 5", as well as "Lumen, Ray Tracing, HDR, volumetric lighting and Niagara – creating graphics as lifelike as possible".
"The canvas awaits its final brushstrokes. The stage calls for its lead actor. The novel needs its final chapter. It’s time to face your fears. One. Last. Time," the team teases.

It will feature expanded plotlines and gameplay, and a few surprises under the stewardship of Bloober and co-developer Anshar Studios.
