Assemble Entertainment has announced the acquisition of a new survival horror experience, “Flesh Made Fear,” for PC via Steam, which will arrive in Q4 2025.
“Flesh Made Fear” is the brainchild of Michael Cosio, the California-based developer behind other titles currently available on Steam, such as “Terror at Oakheart,” “Suffer the Night,” “Weeping Falls Massacre,” and “Meat Saw.” The game is a blood-soaked love letter to the PSX-era of survival horror. It revives the genre’s intricate puzzles, pulse-pounding combat, and suffocating dread. But this isn’t just a nostalgic tribute—modern controls sharpen the experience, immersive cinematics pull you deeper into the nightmare, and a relentlessly gripping story will keep you teetering on the edge until the bitter end.
Players can take on the role of one of two Reaper Intervention Platoon (R.I.P.) operatives—members of a covert task force sent to stop the infamous Victor “The Dripper” Ripper. Once a brilliant CIA agent, now a deranged architect of horror, Ripper has transformed a forgotten town into a grotesque slaughterhouse, where mind-warped infected and nightmarish creations lurk in the shadows.
Each character’s unique stats and story arcs add to the game’s replayability. Jack is a resourceful survivor, balancing determination and ingenuity as he battles through a nightmarish world of terror. His companion, Natalie, cuts through the chaos with wit, determination, and unrivaled stamina. Together, they must hunt Ripper, unravel his darkest secrets, and survive his mansion-turned-laboratory of terror. But in a world where reality itself is twisted, the real question is—can you trust what you see?
The game features several of the classic survival horror elements as part of its gameplay, including:
- Fixed and Dynamic Camera Angles: Experience the tension of classic fixed angles with smooth transitions to modern rail and follow cameras.
- Limited Saves: Collect items to save your progress strategically.
- Inventory Management: Choose carefully what to carry with limited inventory slots and safe room storage.
- Puzzle-Driven Narrative: Solve intricate puzzles that blend with the story to unlock hidden areas and secrets.
“Flesh Made Fear” is available to wishlist now. In the lead-up to the game’s release later this year, more news, trailers, updates, and behind-the-scenes content are expected to be released.
