Developed by Andrés Borghi and Saibot Studios and published by New Blood Interactive, Tenebris Somnia mixes retro-inspired pixel art gameplay with live-action cutscenes featuring real actors, practical effects, and some genuinely unsettling creature designs.

The story follows Julia, a woman haunted by terrifying nightmares involving her ex-boyfriend and monstrous creatures.

Things quickly spiral out of control when those nightmares begin feeling a little too real. Players will explore eerie locations, solve puzzles, manage resources, and fight off horrific enemies while uncovering the truth behind the mystery.

The biggest hook is the transition between classic side-scrolling gameplay and cinematic FMV sequences. The contrast creates an unsettling atmosphere that feels like a throwback to survival horror’s golden age while still offering something fresh.

Tenebris Somnia launches on October 16, 2026 for PC via Steam, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch. If you’re interested, a demo is already available on Steam and GOG.
