Developer Ice Code Games, renowned for titles like Hard West II and Rogue Waters, has unveiled their latest project, Nightmare Frontier. This game is a unique blend of tactical turn-based strategy and extraction looting, described as a fusion of "XCOM meets Hunt: Showdown with a dash of Cthulhu thrown in." Dive into the thrilling announcement trailer and explore the first set of screenshots in the gallery below to get a taste of what's in store.

The narrative of Nightmare Frontier is set in an alternate 19th-century America, following a mysterious event that altered the fabric of reality. The boundaries between the real world and a terrifying unknown have blurred, leaving survivors to unravel the enigma of the night that changed everything and to confront the horrors behind the Nightmare. The streets are now teeming with monstrous beings known as Dreadweavers, born from the dark abysses of a terror dimension. These creatures materialize from the deepest fears of humanity. Players assume the role of the ringleader, a figure who, amidst overwhelming dread, discovers a glimmer of hope for survival. Leading a band of scavengers, they delve into the heart of the city, braving all dangers in their quest for valuable loot.
