‘Layers of Fear’ Hits Xbox One On Friday

When Bloober Team announced their plans to bring their surprise indie horror hit Layers of Fear to Xbox One Preview — Microsoft’s version of Steam Early Access — later this month, they were just about finished with it. Today, the developer narrowed down that nebulous October release window to this Friday, October 23.

Layers of Fear is a first-person survival horror game inspired by 19th century art that follows a mad painter who’s only trying to finish his masterpiece. In it, you’ll “uncover the visions, fears and horrors that entwine the protagonist and finish the masterpiece he has strived so long to create.”

Sunrises and sunsets are literally the only thing I can paint. I once tried to broaden my horizons by trying my hand at a peacock, but in the end it looked more like something you might expect to see fly from a clown’s nose after a nasty sneeze. Any of you talented with a brush and easel?

Are you watching? Ishana Night Shyamalan has clearly been paying attention to her father, M. Night Shyamalan. Not only is she following in his footsteps as a filmmaker, but she’s also embracing a similar mystique surrounding her work.

The new trailer for her feature directorial debut, The Watchers, gives viewers a taste of what’s in store. AreYouWatching.com has launched with even more clues.

Visit the site to join the mysterious creatures that lurk in the Irish forest as you observe a shelter. From the time the sun sets at 7:30 PM until it rises at 5:55 AM, four strangers played by Dakota Fanning, Georgina Campbell, Oliver Finnegan, and Olwen Fouere can be seen trapped inside.

You’ll find several interactive items. Click on the gramophone to set the mood with some spooky music. Tap on the birdcage to hear an ominous message from the parrot inside: “I’m going out, try not to die.” Press on the TV to watch clips from a fake reality show called Lair of Love. And if you tap on the window during the daytime … they’ll tap back.

There are also Easter eggs hidden at specific times. We’ve discovered three: a disorienting shot of Fanning’s character’s car at 5:52 PM, a closer view of the captives at 11:11 PM, and a glimpse of monitors at 12:46 AM. Let us know if you find any more in the comments…

The Watchers opens in theaters on June 14 via New Line Cinema. Ishana Night Shyamalan writes and directs, based on the 2022 novel of the same name by A.M. Shine. M. Night Shyamalan produces.
