The new version of Fear Effect 2 doesn’t have a launch date yet, but it’s likely dropping sometime this year. Below is an official overview:

Set two years before the events of Fear Effect, dive into a sprawling adventure that takes you from futuristic cityscapes to the lost tomb of China’s first emperor, and discover the origins of mercenaries Hana Tsu-Vachel, Royce Glas, Deke Decourt, and the enigmatic Rain Qin, in a story that blends high-tech espionage with ancient Chinese mythology and the supernatural.

Be captivated by the iconic visual style, blending cel-shaded 3D characters with fully streaming, animated FMV backgrounds. It’s an unforgettable, graphic novel-like aesthetic that remains unique.

Test your nerves with the innovative “Fear Effect” system, where your combat effectiveness is tied to your heart rate. Experience a world packed with intense action, strategic stealth kills, and classic survival horror puzzles.
