With Outlast I and II due to arrive on Nintendo Switch sometime in the undetermined future, we'll be getting one of our first tastes of first-person horror in the form of Layers Of Fear: Legacy. And you won't to wait long to curdle your blood because Bloober Team has revealed the game hits Switch on 21st February.
The Legacy package is a retooled version the original that made waves on PC, PS4 and Xbox One in 2016, and will package in the game's perspective-changing Inheritance DLC as standard. It's got its fair share of jump scares, but where LOF:L makes its mark is in the ever changing layout of the mansion you explore as the painter protagonist slowly loses his mind.
Layers Of Fear: Legacy hits the Nintendo Switch eShop on 21st February for £17.99/€19.99/$19.99. Will you be picking this slice of horror fun this month? If so (or if not), sound off below...

I probably won't, but I'm a wuss at horror games.
Brilliant, can't wait! That's a good price too, I expected it to cost more than that. Hopefully we won't have much longer to wait for the Outlast games, they said 1st quarter but that was a while ago now. We've got Detention on the way too.
Fair play to them with the price and including the DLC. Other developers should take note.
Edit: New trailer.

This or Bayonetta. Choices choices.
@Trikeboy or....BOTH!!! 😁😁😉
cant wait....i DID DL this on XBOX (wtf is an XBOX?) when it 1st came out but only played the 1st few mins. I put more time into my Switch, so I'll probably play this more (or in it's entirety). I hope it IS scary coz 1st person horror tends to not be scary (to me)...I much prefer over the shoulder, or heck, the old style horror such as Silent Hill, Res Evil, Fatal Frame!!!
Will await the review but quite interested in this
I was just searching the web last night for the release date for Outlast... no luck besides them saying “Q 1” which is now... eyeroll So maybe this game will take my money instead.
I have this on XB1 and it's an awful game, don't get your hopes up and most of all don't waste your time.
@lemonjellydude Don't be, just look at reviews for the XB1 and PS4 versions, terrible game
I'm always down for a good horror game. Even if I only last like ten minutes.
If it's decent I might download it when it goes on sale. Otherwise I'm not really interested unless there's a physical release
I've got it free on PC, so I'll skip this. It's a good game though.
Good price. I hope this does well.
I’ll keep an eye on the reviews. What happened to that space looking horror FPS I saw previewed on here last year?
I played this on my Xbox both game and the DLC ... loved it !! Amazing game ... I love horror games anyway ... might double dip
And yes the price is amazing ! Anyway I’m glad with switch games prices lately much better than the old days
This was a cracking game very cool eerie atmosphere wasn't the scariest game I've played but still had to turn the lights back on and play in the day because I'm a wuss
@EternalDragonX The PS4 version has a 75% rating on Metacritic while the Xbox One version has 78%.So in both cases it's rated as a good game. Then there's the fact that the Switch version has been improved in a lot of areas so will hopefully be even better than the original.
So why exactly are you saying it's a terrible game and saying to check reviews?
I knew I was waiting to buy this for a reason... I always out off buying but that ends when it releases for switch!
Only digital?I was waiting for this game and i am sad again.
I wonder what happened to that Hollow space FPS horror game? Anybody know any updates for it,it was suppose to come out last year but never heard anything else.
Picked this up for free when it was given away on Humble Bundle. It's has great atmosphere and decent jump scares. Definitely gonna purchase this for that price on the Switch.
@Latinomex01 Good news about Hollow, it should be out in the next few weeks. It was submitted to Nintendo last week and now has its own channel on the news feed,spotted it yesterday.
After the interview you guys posted the other day, I'm gonna grab this one. I enjoy horror titles and I dig the overall premise of LoF. For only $20, this will be worth it. I might wait for an inevitable (?) physical copy though.
@OorWullie i have high standards, chances of me enjoying a game rated under an 8 are extremely slim. Hell I even have a hard time with games rated 9 and above, didnt care for AC Origins, Mario Odyssey, and even Zelda.
Nice to see some more variety in the eshop! I generally don't enjoy horror games, but... maybe if I see it on sale!
@EternalDragonX What games do you like then, Mr. No-fun?
@gloom MK8 is my favorite Switch game thus far, I grew up on the 80's so I'm really into only school style jrpg's,. Love me some Toejam & Earl, Shining Force, 2d Castlevania and Metroid games, Gears of War, Uncharted, Tomb Raider, DK Tropical Freeze is amazing, love the Borderlands games. And many more from MANY different generations.
@EternalDragonX What kind of anime do you like?
@gloom Not a fan of anime at all tbh, but back in the day I did love an anime movie called Ninja Scrolls and I love the anime Castlevania on Netflix.
Gloom: Favorite food?
@gloom probably Prime Rib with a loaded baked potato
Gloom: PUBG or Fornite?
@gloom PUBG for sure, not a huge fan of Fortnite's gameplay
Gloom: Do you wipe front to back, or back to front?
@gloom well that's kind of a personal question gloom and I'd appreciate it if you'd stay out of my own damned business.
Gloom: Thank you for your time
@gloom No problem have a great day bud.
Gloom: You too
@gloom thanks
@EternalDragonX Woah dude! I was just curious.. I like a baked potato too with all the fixin’s😋 Do you like memes?
@JedRock Just the advice I would've given, as I'll be doing the same. Tax season is lovely.
@gloom lol no I hate em
