Layers of Fear (2025) — Free Download for Mac

The canvas awaits the finishing touches. The lead actor is expected on stage. The novel is missing only the last chapter. It is time to face your fears one last time.

The series that has left its mark on the first-person, story-driven psychological horror genre returns to tell the final, spine-chilling story in the Layers of Fear series. The new release will be the culmination of the critically acclaimed series, as it contains Layers of Fear and Layers of Fear 2, as well as all additional content (including the new The Final Note DLC, which offers a new perspective on the Layers of Fear story) and an all-new writer's story that ties everything together. Built on Unreal Engine 5, Layers of Fear features ray tracing, HDR, and 4K resolution to deliver the most realistic nightmare experience possible.

Layers of Fear: Create a Masterpiece

"The only thing you ever wanted...FINISH THE PICTURE."

Explore a Victorian-era home as an artist whose sanity is cracking at the seams like oil paint on an old canvas. Wander the ever-changing mansion in search of materials to complete your best painting, while trying to escape your past.

Inheritance DLC: Confront Your Past

"Someone told me that madness runs in my family's blood... It's time to put an end to it."

As the artist's daughter, you set out to find answers. What secrets does this house hide? Will you ever be able to understand the madness you inherited from your father? Will you be able to forgive him? All the answers are here, in the house... if you can once again delve into the past.

The Final Note DLC: Delve deeper into the story

A new expansion designed to shed light on the artist, his muse, and their family history. The Final Note is told from the perspective of the artist's wife. The new plot may change the way you view the characters in the first game and their actions.

Layers of Fear 2: Take Your Seats

"Time doesn't wait even for actors. So don't waste our minutes."

You're the lead actor in a movie set on an ocean liner. Only things are not what they seem. Explore the ship and find out why you're the perfect choice for the director's (voiced by Tony Todd) latest film. As soon as you open your eyes, you're given a single command: "Play." But will you obey?

The Lighthouse Chapter: Tie the Story Together

As the writer, the last protagonist, visit a creepy deserted lighthouse and discover a completely new story that will unite all parts of the series. What awaits you there? It's time to find out.
