Polish game developer Bloober Team is expanding its spooky arsenal by teaming up with indie publisher Private Division to work on a brand new horror game.
According to a recent press release (opens in new tab), an “upcoming unannounced new survival horror IP” is in development at Bloober Team, the studio behind The Medium, and will be published by Private Division, the publisher behind titles like Hades and The Outer Worlds. While details on this new horror IP are scarce at this point, the press release confirms that the game is “not expected to release before calendar 2025”.
“Our next project is an exciting new survival horror game, which will help us become a leader in the horror industry at large,” Piotr Babieno, CEO of Bloober Team, said in the press release announcing the partnership.
Something bad is coming this way
Bloober Team is currently working on the highly anticipated remake of Silent Hill 2 as well as the next installment in the Layers of Fear series, so it makes sense that this brand new project will take a bit of a back seat until those projects are completed.
It’s also no big surprise that Bloober Team’s next project will be in the same vein as the current one, as the developer has become a household name when it comes to horror games – even if it’s dealing with mental health topics are controversial.
This unannounced survival horror IP could be the feather in the studio’s hat if the Silent Hill 2 remake makes an impact in 2023. And while it’s unclear exactly when Bloober Team will reveal this new game, or what it entails, we do know it will be a while before we get our hands on it.
