Press release:
SEPTEMBER 16TH, CRACOW, POLAND
The Cracow-based (Poland) indie games publisher Feardemic and Montreal-based (Quebec, Canada) indie games developer Blazing Bit Games, are today very happy and excited to announce that their dark and violent retro FPS “Nightmare Reaper“, is coming digitally and physically to consoles (PS5, PS4, Xbox Series X/S, Xbox One, and the Nintendo Switch) in early 2023.

Feardemic’s not slowing down! Shortly after hosting a successful horror games event, Feardemic’s Fear Fest: Black Summer Edition, they’ve announced that they will be publishing the critically-acclaimed retro shooter, Nightmare Reaper, for PS4, PS5, Xbox Series X, and Nintendo Switch.

If that wasn’t enough, Nightmare Reaper will also receive a physical release, and hit the store shelves in Europe and the USA, letting you reap the nightmare with your own hands. According to Feardemic, you’ll be able to bathe in the geysers of blood with 80 unique weapons to the explosive soundtrack by Andrew Hulshult on the console of your choice early 2023.

Until then, you can check out the new Nightmare Reaper trailer that Blazing Bit Games had prepared for the Realms Deep event, and if that isn’t enough, you can find a free demo of the game on Steam. Either way, you’re guaranteed to have a bloody good time.

About Nightmare Reaper:

A dark and violent meld of retro and modern action games, inspired by the classic 2.5D first-person shooters of the 90s, with elements of modern looter shooters and roguelites.

Intense and addictive gameplay

Character progression

SO much more
💥 Music and audio by the great Andrew Hulshult.
💥 Non-intrusive but mysterious story.
💥 Many game modes.
💥 A mix of manual and random level generation.
