‘Fear Below Zero’ is an Antarctic survival horror game set to release on PC in December 2025. Developed by Corsgames, this first-person game immerses players in an isolated Antarctic research station where they encounter a prehistoric predator awakened after millions of years of frozen slumber.
The game’s design draws inspiration from popular titles like Alien: Isolation and Amnesia: The Bunker, blending intelligent AI hunting mechanics with a helpless atmosphere. Players assume the role of a communications technician responding to a distress call from Erebus Station, where an ancient and deadly creature roams free.

Unlike traditional survival horror games, ‘Fear Below Zero’ offers no combat mechanics. Players must rely on stealth, cunning, and their environment to survive. Hiding in lockers, under desks, and in shadows becomes crucial as they evade a predator that hunts by sight and sound, with a single mistake leading to instant death.
The predator in the game is designed to learn and adapt to the player’s behavior. It dynamically tracks movements using realistic hunting instincts, investigating disturbances with curiosity and suspicion. The creature’s problem-solving intelligence challenges players to constantly adapt their survival strategies.
Exploration plays a significant role in the gameplay, as players scavenge for electronic components and materials to repair the communication array and signal for rescue. Antarctica’s harsh environment adds another layer of challenge, requiring players to monitor their body temperature, find warmth, and avoid hypothermia.
Corsgames founder Corey aimed to create a game that evokes a sense of dread and vulnerability, stripping away combat agency while intensifying other survival horror elements. ‘Fear Below Zero’ aims to immerse players in a world where they feel genuinely afraid and vulnerable.
Key features of the game include dynamic AI, resource scavenging, environmental storytelling, and a hypothermia system. With interconnected research facilities to explore, changing weather conditions, and a price tag of $15.99 on Steam, ‘Fear Below Zero’ promises a unique and chilling gaming experience for PC players.
