Born of Bread and Caput Mortum developer WildArts has announced Fright Train, a new mascot-style survival horror game.
Fright Train is in development for Windows PC (via Steam), with a release set for sometime in 2026.
Here’s a rundown on the game, plus its reveal trailer:
You are rookie agent Doug Barker, and you have just started working for P.A.W. (Paranormal Agency Worldwide).
An anonymous distress signal has been sent from the L.R.S. Great White, a mysterious research station on rails in Antarctica owned by the secretive corporation SHARK.
With the help of your navigator back at HQ, make your way through the train and stop the interdimensional horrors that SHARK unleashed!
But remember to keep it running! If it stops, you might freeze to death or risk being overwhelmed by horrifying monsters…
