‘Layers of Fear’ DLC Drops in August

Published

on

With their surprise hit Layers of Fear, Bloober Team has proven itself adept at delivering psychological horror games that are as atmospheric as they are surreal to experience. The studio’s next game, the just-announced Observer, will take their skill for terror into the realm of sci-fi in 2017, but first, we’re going to get some closure for Layers of Fear.

In the epilogue chapter Layers of Fear: Inheritance, the perspective shifts to the daughter of the painter from the original game, as she returns to the home of her childhood in an attempt to face the demons of her past. Unfortunately, those demons are far more real than she could ever have known — and while that sucks for her, it does mean we’re getting even more Layers of Fear.

Inheritance releases August 2 for PC, Mac, Linux, Xbox One and PS4. The original Layers of Fear is currently on sale for $9.99 (reg. $19.99) in the ongoing Steam Summer Sale.

‘Alien Hunt’ – It’s an ‘Alien’ and ‘Predator’ Mockbuster Rolled into One! [Trailer]

Published

While you wait for Alien: Romulus, the folks over at Devilworks have cooked up their own slice of “mockbuster” fun with Alien Hunt, and we’re debuting the trailer here on BD this morning.

This brand-new sci-fi horror from director Aaron Mirtes (The Bigfoot Trap, Painted in Blood) is set for its US premiere on May 14, and you can find it on digital thanks to Devilworks.

You can exclusively watch the official trailer for Alien Hunt below, which looks to combine elements of Alien and Predator. This particular “mockbuster” has very little interest in hiding its inspirations, with the alien designs plucked straight out of H.R. Giger’s beautiful brain. Hey, if you’re going to pull from other movies, might as well take from the all-time greats!

In Alien Hunt, “On a hunting trip in the wilderness, a group of siblings discovers an abandoned military outpost on their land, but is it what it seems?

“Their trip takes a sinister turn when they find themselves facing off against a relentless army of extra-terrestrial beings. Suddenly, the hunters become the hunted.

“The formidable squad of alien soldiers will stop at nothing to wipe out the enemy and in an all-out, brutal battle for survival, it’s kill or be killed in Alien Hunt.”

Barron Boedecker (Escape Pod, The Bigfoot Trap), Brent Bentley (The Perfect In-Laws, Haunt Season), Deiondre Teagle (The Visitor, Painted in Blood, Death Ranch), Chelsey Fuller (The Bigfoot Trap, The Silent Natural), Jesse Santoyo (A Nashville Country Christmas, Potter’s Ground), and Adam Pietripaoli (The Bigfoot Trap, The OctoGames) star.
