Bloober Team Reveals Mysterious Website, Countdown Timer
After recent statements about their mysterious Project M, not to mention that little thing with Konami in the Silent Hill remake, Bloober Team is looking to pique gamers’ interests further with the recent unveiling of a cryptic website that features a countdown timer.
Coinciding with an equally-cryptic post on X, Bloober Team has launched RemosdNeulSerorehsoOvamCeyerd.com, a website that features a countdown timer against an abstract background. Accompanying the link to the website is the even more mysterious quote from Bloober, “Dare to peek into the darkness…”.
Looking at the website coding, there’s nothing apparent in terms of clues as to what exactly the website or timer is referring to, but the timer itself is set to expire on February 15 at 12:00 a.m. ET.
At first glance, the website URL is obviously a mash-up of partial words, but it’s equally as unclear as to how to decipher it. Further complicating things is that you could just as easily assume that this is referring to Silent Hill, or potentially even Layers of Fear. And again, there’s that Project M, which Bloober Team CEO Piotr Babieno intends to reveal details about “very soon”. Or perhaps it’s none of those, and it’s in regards to Bloober Team’s other unannounced projects, including that collaboration announced back in 2021 with Rogue Games for “currently-in-development next-gen titles for consoles and PC.”
Fingers crossed that Bloober drops more clues as that timer ticks away.

Techland’s Dying Light still endures over a decade after its release. And if for some reason you still haven’t joined the more than 50 million players worldwide who have enjoyed the game, you can now play it as part of the PlayStation Plus Extra service.
The news comes after Techland quietly dropped a new update for Dying Light, which focused on some “minor fixes.” This comes after a year since the Retouched Update, which was released as part of the franchise’s 10-year celebration, giving the game a graphical overhaul, as well as a remastered soundtrack by composer Paweł Blaszczak.
“There’s never been a better time to discover the Dying Light universe,” says Paweł Kopiński, Techland’s Head of Live Products. “Whether returning to Harran after years away or stepping into the city for the very first time. This is where players get to know Kyle Crane – an iconic character voiced by Roger Craig Smith – and experience the beginning of a story that continues in Dying Light: The Beast.”
And to further speak to the enduring appeal of the game, the devs have released a new devlog that delves into just why after 11 years, the game that specialized in open world zombie combat still remains alive to this day.
In addition to the PlayStation 5, Dying Light is also available on Xbox Series, and PC via Steam and the Epic Games Store.
