New assets, screenshots, optimization improvements, and official social media launch

Warsaw, Warsaw, Poland, 1st Feb 2026 – We’re excited to announce a new development update for Fearwoods, the upcoming co-op survival horror game coming to Steam. This latest milestone introduces improved visuals, smoother movement, redesigned weapons, and enhanced social features – alongside newly released in-game assets and screenshots.

New assets, including updated cover art and fresh screenshots, are now available in the official press kit folder.

Enhanced Visual Quality & World Exploration

The world of Fearwoods has received a significant visual upgrade. Terrain clarity and environmental detail have been improved, allowing players to better explore and appreciate the forest’s haunting atmosphere. A new early-era GPS system – set before the events of the first game – helps players navigate the terrain more naturally while maintaining tension.

Refined Movement & Responsiveness

Player movement has been overhauled to feel smoother and more responsive. These improvements enhance both exploration and intense encounters, creating a more fluid and immersive survival experience.

Graphics & Performance Optimization

Overall graphical polish has been boosted alongside major optimization improvements. These changes ensure a more stable and enjoyable experience across a wide range of PC systems while preserving visual quality.

Weapon System Redesign

Player weapons have been redesigned for greater clarity and impact. The new system focuses on a single flashlight-based mechanic instead of switching between three separate tools, making gameplay more focused, intuitive, and engaging while reinforcing Fearwoods’ core light-driven survival mechanics.

Improved 3D Lobby & Friends System

The 3D pre-match lobby has been upgraded to deliver a stronger social experience. Improvements include better Steam avatar refreshing and spam invite prevention, making it easier and more reliable to add friends and join co-op sessions.

Official Social Media Launch

Fearwoods has officially launched its social media channels. Players can now follow the game to stay up to date with development progress, behind-the-scenes content, and community updates.

Fearwoods blends atmospheric horror, cooperative tension, and strategic light mechanics into a chilling multiplayer experience. Players can wishlist the game now on Steam and follow development as the forest’s dark secrets continue to unfold.
