'Blindfire' Is A Multiplayer FPS Taking Place In The Dark, Available Now In PC And Xbox Early Access - Screens & Trailer

Blindfire is a new futuristic neo-noir shooter that takes place entirely in the dark.

A fast-paced streamlined social shooter, Blindfire is full of fast-action in short bursts - but there’s a big twist: you are enclosed in a pitch-black arena with up to seven other players, armed with only a versatile pistol and eight bullets in your magazine

Survive Blindfire’s short rounds of play to be the last one standing in free-for-all or team based matches. Alone in the dark, players must dodge an arena filled with traps and obstacles - including UV lights that activate randomly and security gates and sirens strategically placed to trigger audio and visual alarms that give away your position. 

In Blindfire, players must rely on brief flashes of light and sound cues to locate opponents before they locate you - silence is golden, and in this case, silence is the key to survival. But don’t stay still for too long, Blindfire’s anti-camping mechanic triggers a mask flash which will alert other players to your position. Your muzzle flashes lights you up when you fire, so you might want to rethink any “spray and pray” strategies.


Set in the near-future, Blindfire has emerged as an illicit blood sport on the dark web, where the ultra-wealthy bet on the lives of desperate contestants. Contestants are lured in by the promise of immense wealth. Clad in identical, dehumanizing jumpsuits and full face masks, they fight in pitch-black arenas filled with traps, relying on their heightened senses to survive. 

For spectators, the game offers a voyeuristic thrill, watching every desperate move through cutting-edge night vision technology and the ability to tilt the outcome of a match by triggering traps and alarms. Victory brings a bitter choice: escape with the winnings or risk it all for another round.

Blindfire is available today on PC (Steam Early Access / Epic Game Store) and Xbox Game Preview for $8.99, with PlayStation versions coming this year (including crossplay).
