A Thank You and a Sneak Peek at PHASE ZERO’s Future

[p]Hello everyone, [/p][p][/p][p]As we entered 2026, it’s hard not to feel a bit nostalgic for the year that’s gone - and to think about what this one brings. To us, this whole last year has been one heck of a feel-good story. A year that has gone waaaay above our expectations. [/p][p][/p][p]When we announced our game all the way back in May, we never expected to get where we are today. We had PHASE ZERO make its grand reveal at The MIX online showcase. Our demo began with an IGN exclusive, it was played and mentioned by some of our idols, we got nominated for awards, and we had the gaming and horror press and creators embrace our game with open arms. Absolute madness. And, the best part is, that’s not all. [/p][p][/p][p]The biggest surprises came from you, the players. There were over 20,000 of you who played our demo, with, at the time of writing, a 98% Positive Steam rating based on nearly 400 reviews. PHASE ZERO so far has also collected over 80,000 Steam wishlists! This is seriously a number that goes WAAAY above what our small team expected. Seeing all the fan art, the comments, the feedback, and the love coming from you all made us feel that we are working on something that people like and are looking forward to playing. As devs, what more could we ask for?!? So thank you for the outpour of such positivity and encouragement. It’s massive fuel for all of us.[/p][p][/p][p]All of this positivity made us want to deliver a final product that is worthy of your time. Now that there are so many of you waiting, we want to make PHASE ZERO the best game it can possibly be. To be completely honest, our production timeline has extended a bit, which explains why we were quiet about showing new content that we are working on. To all of you who wanted to see more of PHASE ZERO last year, we hope the wait will be worth it. To start the teasing process, here are some screenshots of all-new, never-before-seen locations. What do you think!?

Thank you for joining us on this journey and for being a part of the PHASE ZERO process. And here is to a huge and eventful 2026. Hope you will love the horrors that we are preparing. [/p][p][/p][p]Here’s to a fantastic 2026![/p][p][/p][p]Your SPINA Studio[/p][p][/p][p][dynamiclink][/dynamiclink][/p]
