"Nightmare Frontier: New Tactical PC Game Announced"

May 14,2025 Author: Aurora

Developer Ice Code Games, the creative minds behind Hard West II and Rogue Waters, have unveiled their latest project, Nightmare Frontier. This tactical turn-based strategy game introduces a unique blend of extraction looting, reminiscent of a thrilling mix of "XCOM meets Hunt: Showdown with a dash of Cthulhu." Dive into the announcement trailer and explore the first screenshots in the gallery below to get a glimpse of what's in store.

Set in an alternate version of 19th-century America, the narrative of Nightmare Frontier unfolds shortly after a cataclysmic event that blurred the lines between reality and a terrifying unknown. This mysterious occurrence left the world forever changed, with the streets now teeming with monsters known as Dreadweavers—nightmarish creatures that materialize from the depths of a terror dimension, embodying the deepest fears of humanity. As players, you'll embody the ringleader, navigating this new, horrifying reality. Despite the overwhelming dread, you find hope in scavenging and leading a team into the heart of the city, risking everything in pursuit of valuable loot that could mean the difference between survival and oblivion.
