"Come, little darlings and hear the tale of three curious children Bobby, Sue, and Gale..." Start a new game of Layers of Fear 10/29 through 11/30 and you may notice a new drawing in the entryway of the mansion. Follow the pages to uncover a story about three children who discover a sinister spirit board and learn to be careful what they wish for. Should you follow the children and brave the depths of the Mansion this Halloween, you'll be able to enter a room that's been locked for a very good reason. In this room lies a spirit board, not unlike the one from the drawings. If you are feeling particularly brave, you can use the planchette to try your hand at communing with the spirits. Depending on the message you send, you may uncover secrets beyond reason or summon a memory best forgotten. Unsure of what message to send? Some tell tales of ghoulish apparitions and strange rooms.

Bloober Team, the makers of Blair Witch, Observer and Layers of Fear, today announces its largest and most ambitious project to date - The Medium. The Medium is a tension-fuelled, psychological horror game built around a central motif: how your perspective changes your perception. https://youtu.be/tTAz758Vt88 Players will find themselves in the body of Marianne, a medium hounded by visions, living and interacting across two worlds: the real, and the spirit world. Nothing is what it seems, everything has another side. As a medium with access to both worlds, you have a wider perspective and can see more clearly that theres no one simple truth to what others perceive. Every one of our games has a central theme that drives its creative and technological design. In The Medium, we focus on perspective and perception. When you change your point of view, you discover that things are more complicated and nuanced than you initially thought" - said Piotr Babieno, CEO at Bloober Team. "The Medium is our most ambitious game ever and we can't wait to show you how we're translating this vision into a psychological horror. The legendary composer Akira Yamaoka and Bloober Teams Arkadiusz Reikowski are working together on the games original dual score, creating truly unique atmospheres across both worlds. https://store.steampowered.com/app/1293160/The_Medium/ Follow us, check the official website, and add to your wishlist!

Hey guys! There were a few minor patches post the Goya update. They were mostly bug fixes, including the change of the room that goes pitch black - now you should be able to see a bit more, or the endless trip down by an elevator. Just wanted to let you know what's happening :) Enjoy the game, cheers! :)

Hey guys! Sorry for the late update! Here is the log for today's patch: - We have added new rooms and remodelled some of the old ones, nearing up to almost 20 completely new room experiences you can encounter. Those rooms should now work as a breather and slow down the pacing of the game a bit. [edit] to clarify, all of the levels added are in the part of the game that has been previously available to you. The rest of the story, containing the ending, will be added in the official release of the game. - New findable objects have been added, as well as some of the older ones have been redesigned. - German and French languages have been added (subtitles, UI). They are the work of our fans, who supported us in the development process. Big up for them! - Small localization corrections. - Game Menu fixes – minor aesthetic and graphical adjustments; Navigation problems while using a game pad have now been fixed. - We have changed the mouse cursor in-game – it should also now disappear correctly while looking at findable objects. - Fixed the issue when inverting axis’ made opening object illogical (you had to push to actually pull, etc.) - You can now disable gamepad acceleration.

Hey guys, sorry for the very late announcement, but we have finally checked all the ins and outs of our little event that went a bit south. So, without further ado, we would like to congratulate our winners: - Master Doge - A Member of the 90s Generation - Grecia You will now be immortalized in Layers of Fear! We have already reached out to you via email with further instructions. For the rest of our fans I would like to say thank you for participating, we hope you have enjoyed (are still enjoying) the event. You guys all rock! Best Bloober Team

Hey guys! The Steam Halloween Sale will be the last chance for you to get Layers of Fear at a discounted price! For the rest of the year we will focus on adding content to the game, and as we have stated in our Early Access notes the price will go up with those updates. There are a few more hours left until the end of the sale, so if you were unsure whether to buy the game now this might be your best argument to do so. :) Just giving you a friendly heads-up.

Hey guys! We had some huge technical problems yesterday. First the update was buggy, then the Halloween email has bounced back a lot of you. We are extremely sorry for that. The update fix has been implemented quite fast and hopefully it wasn’t such a problem for you. The email issue however has made a much bigger impact. We have received your emails. We have three people chosen for the prize, however, the emails came our way quite chaotically, sometimes they just bounced only as IP numbers that couldn’t reach us. We have checked a lot of stuff to be sure that the said three people are really the ones who should earn the prize, but to be 100% sure, we would ask you to forward the automatic reply you have received from our mailbox once again to Halloween@layersoffear.com. This will give us the last confirmation we need. If you guys think you were among the first to send the code, please reach out to us. Sorry it transpired this way, sadly technology likes to mess up with people and yesterday it did that to us. We hope you had fun searching for the keywords and enjoyed looking at what they did with your surroundings. Also, Layers of Fear has a 25% discount starting from today :) Best Regards Bloober Team

- A new room connected to Halloween has been added. You can enter it from the basement in the first level of the game (the complete house). It will be an exclusive content that will last only for a month. The first three people who will find all of the unique effects connected with the key words will find their way into the game, as their own portraits that will be added to Layers of Fear. [!] It is advised to complete the game before going to the event’s room. - New languages have been added: • Polish • Italian - Chapter Select added – now you can replay each previously finished chapter without losing progress from your game. - New graphical options have been added – texture quality, shadows quality, mirror reflections, chromatic abberation. - Fixed some issues with key / button binding. - The right mouse buton has now been restored as the primary key to leave close-up screens (looking at objects, reading news clippings, etc.) - You can now skip the intro scene by holding either the space bar key (PC), or the X button on Xbox game pads. - A new checkpoint has been added after starting a new game. - When starting up the game you should no longer encounter the ‘application is not responding’ message. - Minor bug fixes and tweaks to the levels.

Supported controllers are as follows: - Windows 7 – Xbox 360 Pad, Xbox One Pad, PS4 Pad - Windows 8 – Xbox 360 Pad, Xbox One Pad, PS4 Pad - Windows 10 – Xbox 360 Pad, Xbox One Pad, PS4 Pad - Mac OS – Xbox 360 Pad, PS4 Pad - Steam OS – Xbox 360 Pad, PS4 Pad [!] Known issue – on Mac and Steam OS there is still a bug - when you unplug the gamepad while the game is still running, and plug it in again, it won’t work as intended. Please refrain from unplugging the gamepad during your playthroughs for now. [Saves] We have added three user profiles, each with their own save game slot. We have added the support of Steam Cloud. [Other] Minor visual GUI changes Minor level fixes To avoid further questions regarding content updates: Yes, we are constantly working on them, but we prefer to make a bigger batch, than add a level with each update (it wouldn’t validate another playthrough in our opinion). Wait patiently and you will be rewarded! Cheers!

Hey guys! At the start of this week we promised you a new update due today, that will not only fix some bugs, but will also add save slots. You have been asking for this functionality for a long time, and we agree that it’s very important, and should be implemented immediately. As much as it makes us sad, we’re unable to keep this promise. We encountered some technical issues that we need to address. It’s extremely important for us that we retain the highest quality of our game. That’s why we’ve decided to delay this update. We hope it will go live at the end of next week (bearing surprises!) We’re very sorry that we have to make you wait longer. Thank you for your continuous support!

Hey guys! We are planning a patch on Friday that will add save slots, as in a few people will be able to start a new game on the same PC, each having it's own saved progress. This will however make your old saved games inaccessible, as in lost, deleted, not supported, etc. If you have started the game and didn't finish it, do it ASAP. Sorry for the inconvenience.

This time only some minor fixes.
