Talks And Demos: Reimagining the Horror: Lessons Learned from ‘Layers of Fear’ | Unreal Fest 2023

In this session, Anshar Studio CEO Lukasz Hacura shares the company’s experience of reimagining Layers of Fear, with the new version released in June 2023. He’ll reveal how they melded Layers of Fear 1 from 2016 and Layers of Fear 2 from 2019 into a singular, cohesive gaming experience.

Created in partnership with the original creator and current publisher Bloober Team, Layers of Fear (2023) is one of the pioneering projects to develop a full game in Unreal Engine 5, compatible with both Gen 9 consoles and PC. We look forward to sharing the insights we’ve gained through this journey, spanning technical aspects, artistic creativity, design strategies, and the marketing approach of a horror game reimagined.
