Bloober Team Reveals Horror Sequel That’s Not Silent Hill

The two-minute trailer is quite unsettling. There’s someone who’s been locked in a house for who knows how long, strange events in blindingly white rooms, and shadows projected onto doors. Layers of Fears is a story of fear and hatred of the horror of loneliness, and the voiceover really seems to underscore that.

Also according to the description, Layers of Fears uses Unreal Engine 5, meaning it will take advantage of new innovations such as Ray Tracing, HDR effects, 4K resolution, and the Lumen system to “offer the most immersive and visceral horror experience.” That seems accurate based on the creepy trailer.

Unfortunately, Layers of Fears isn’t the Silent Hill project fans were hoping it to be. There were rumors Bloober Team might’ve been working on Konami’s acclaimed horror franchise, but it seems we can finally put that speculation to rest. Or rather, we can put a lid on the idea that Bloober Team is behind it since folks are still convinced that Silent Hill will make a comeback in some form.
