Nominate Layers of Fear at the Steam Awards 2023!

Along with enjoying massive discounts during Steam’s annual Autumn Sale, you can also nominate your favorite games in 11 different categories for a chance to win at the upcoming Steam Awards.
As the crowning work of our most beloved series, we’ve put Layers of Fear up for contention for several categories, which we feel best encapsulate the strengths of our game. Chief among those is:

Outstanding Story-Rich Game - A strong emphasis on narrative has always been one of Bloober Team’s core values. With Layers of Fear (2023) we’ve sought to create a fitting conclusion to our tale of artistic impulse gone wrong, and in the process created the definitive version of our breakthrough title.

We also pride ourselves on making games that excel in both the visual and audio department, so we suggest putting up our game for consideration in the following categories as well:

Outstanding Visual Style - As part of our dedication towards harnessing the latest technology to achieve a truly immersive experience, we’ve rebuilt Layers of Fear (2023) from the ground up using Unreal Engine 5, which has allowed us to achieve unparalleled graphical fidelity, while preserving the unique look and feel of this universe.

Best Soundtrack - The work of Arkadiusz Reikowski and his team has been instrumental in creating the mood and atmosphere of Layers of Fear (2023), using dissonance and unsettling melodies to enhance the game’s horror elements, and deserves to be recognized for its outstanding contribution to the game’s overall experience.
