Layers of Fear Launches - Polish Horror Game on Unreal Engine 5

In a few hours Layers of Fear, horror game on Unreal Engine 5, will be released, which in addition to a new story, will also offer refreshed versions of the brand's earlier installments.

Update:

The countdown on Steam is over, but the game is still not available. We expect the PC version to be unlocked only this afternoon, along with the PS5 release.

Debuting on the market today, is the new installment of the popular horror series by Polish studio Bloober Team. As with the first installment, another team - Anshar Studios - helped with the work.

  1. The game will debut today on PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series S and Xbos Series X.
  2. The PC release will be available for purchase on Steam, GOG.com and Epic Games Store, where it will be unlocked at 10 a.m. CET.
  3. On the other hand, in PlayStation Store the game will be made available at 6 p.m. CET. We do not know when we can expect the debut of Xbox Series X/S editions.

Similar to the brand's previous installments, Layers of Fear will be a FPP horror adventure. One of the game's main attractions is the excellent visuals, which were powered by Unreal Engine 5.

It is worth mentioning that in addition to the new story, the game will feature refreshed versions of previous installments - along with all the DLCs, with improved graphics and new gameplay mechanics. So in practice Layers of Fear represents a complete, definitive version of the entire franchise.
