Ice Code Games, the creative minds behind Hard West II and Rogue Waters, have unveiled their latest project, Nightmare Frontier. This tactical turn-based strategy game blends elements of "XCOM meets Hunt: Showdown with a dash of Cthulhu," promising a thrilling experience for fans of the genre. Dive into the announcement trailer above and explore the initial screenshots in the gallery below to get a glimpse of what's in store.

The narrative of Nightmare Frontier is set in an alternate 19th-century America, shortly following a mysterious event that drastically altered the world. The boundaries between reality and an unknown horror have blurred, compelling the remaining survivors to unravel the secrets of that fateful night and the source of the ominous Nightmare. The streets are now teeming with monstrous beings known as Dreadweavers, which have emerged from the dark abysses of a terror dimension. These creatures are the physical manifestations of humanity's deepest fears. Players will assume the role of the ringleader, who, despite the overwhelming terror, sees a glimmer of hope for survival. Leading a group of scavengers, they will delve deep into the city, risking everything in their quest for valuable loot.
