Developer Ice Code Games, renowned for titles such as Hard West II and Rogue Waters, has unveiled their latest project, Nightmare Frontier, a tactical turn-based strategy game infused with elements of an extraction looter. Imagine blending the strategic depth of XCOM with the tension of Hunt: Showdown, all while facing the eldritch horrors reminiscent of Cthulhu. You can view the announcement trailer and explore the first screenshots in the gallery below to get a glimpse of this intriguing new world.

In Nightmare Frontier, the narrative unfolds in an alternate 19th-century America, shortly after a mysterious event that has irrevocably altered reality. The boundaries between our world and a terrifying dimension have blurred, giving rise to a nightmarish landscape. Streets are now overrun by monstrous entities known as Dreadweavers, which emerge from the dark abysses of this terror dimension. These creatures embody the deepest fears of the survivors. Players will assume the role of the ringleader, a character who, despite the overwhelming dread, sees an opportunity for survival. Leading a group of scavengers, you'll delve deep into the city, risking everything in pursuit of valuable loot.
