Bloober Team has provided an in-depth look at its
reimagined collection
. It comprises the original all the expansions for both and a fresh chapter that promises to give fans “a new perspective” on the first game’s story. All the series’ events will be connected with the help of a new character called The Writer, who is the focus of the 11-minute gameplay video.
The footage shows The Writer exploring a gloomy lighthouse. It doesn’t take too long before spooky things start to happen. Your lantern is an important defensive tool against things that go bump in the night. You’ll also need it to solve puzzles and reveal secrets.
Bloober Team has reworked the Layers of Fear games in Unreal Engine 5. Based on this evidence, it seems the game has atmospheric visuals that are as pretty as they are eerie. The studio used tools such as the Lumen system, ray-tracing, HDR and volumetric lighting in an attempt to make the game look as lifelike as possible.
You’ll be able to explore and take in all its creepy visuals when it hits PC, PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X/S in June. Meanwhile, Bloober Team is also
working on a remake
