Horror developers Bloober Team have released a teaser video that gives us a glimpse into what a new Layers of Fear title could bring to players. Utilizing the new power of Unreal Engine 5, you can really tell that the graphical quality has drastically improved. It seems we will truly be returning to the fear that we first faced when the first title of the series was released in 2016.

It seems that this first-person psychological horror experience will, once again, be told from the point of view of a painter - perhaps, the same painter from the first game. Fans of the series are likely to have a similar curiosity in this case; will the Hollywood actor from Layers of Fear 2 somehow correlate to our painter from Layers of Fear? And why choose to go back to the painter now after the series had already branched out?

While we won’t truly know too much more about the next title in the Layers of Fear series until more details are released by the team, it is great to know it is happening at all! Plus, we also got this quote from the Bloober Team CEO, Piotr Babiebo:

“Layers of Fear was a breakthrough project for us—it paved the path for Bloober Team and began our rapid growth, allowing us to explore more stories we’ve wanted to tell. I’m really glad we’re coming back to this world, wiser and more experienced. As a studio, we also have two other projects in the works, one in production and one in pre-production.”

So, while there is still more to learn about this newly teased title, we also know that there are more games in the works from the team as well. Bloober Team never does seem to slow down and I am looking forward to seeing all of the interesting titles they will be pushing out over the next few years!
