Fear the Dark Unknown transports you to the great survival horror classics of the 90's, handling either of its two protagonists with a fixed camera system that enhances the feeling of being immense in a true horror movie.

"It is said that our worst fears come from within. But... What if there were a greater fear than we are capable of conceiving? What if that terror were much closer than we think? Suffering is the only way. Fear is a necessary evil."

Through the eyes of James and Chloe Sullivan we will live two intense adventures with an approximate duration, according to their creators, of 16 hours. The clock is ticking and the survival game can no longer be stopped. James and Chloe have been chosen and nothing will ever be the same again after discovering the Dark Unknown.

The game is set in the Beresford mansion, which we can visit at different ages to learn about the mysteries that surrounded all its former inhabitants. From its construction in 1800 by the local merchant Robert Beresford, to its transformation into a hotel at the end of 1920.

Death will be a constant throughout the game, not only because of the strange creatures we will have to fight, but also because of the number of traps the mansion will force us to overcome. The survival clock went off as soon as James and Chloe arrive to the mansion, and it can no longer be stopped. Only by knowing its true inhabitant will they know the true horror they face.


Face a multitude of challenges, certain deaths and enemies of various kinds that will force you not to waste a bullet, use carefully the health kits, hide or even flee from them. All mixed with a wealth of puzzles, integrated into the story, which will allow you to learn more details of the Beresford mansion and the Unknown Dark.

They will know the true horror. The suffering of a father. The despair of a daughter. The clock is ticking and the survival game can no longer be stopped.

As confirmed by its creators, this new survival horror comes with the intention of recovering the most classic style of the genre, remembering the gameplay of the great sagas and including some nods to other known works of horror.

Key features:

  • Experience two totally different adventures driving James Sullivan or his daughter Chloe.
  • Choose between your four weapons and don't waste a bullet. Survival is your main goal, and it's not easy.
  • Thoroughly examine every room. You never know where you are going to find that object that will give you the key to continue your adventure.
  • Discover the Beresford mansion and its inhabitants throughout its 200 years of life. You can visit it at different times, and remember that to find out all its secrets is to know yourself.

Fear the Dark Unknown will be available from October 25, 2019 for PC through Steam, with Nintendo Switch, Ps4 and Xbox One versions to follow.
