We’ve heard the rumors, and we’re here to put them to rest—F.E.A.R. 3 is coming, and in a big way. Our team at Monolith has handed the reins (and the creepy paranormal telepathy powers required to control them) to the team at Day 1 Studios. They’ve already spent some quality time with Alma in the past, so we’re confident that they’ll deliver an experience that will scare you senseless all over again.

The development studio heads confirm everything below…

Matthew Allen, Monolith Productions:
“The F.E.A.R. franchise has been a core part of Monolith ever since we first started work on it almost eight years ago. It has been a great ride watching as the franchise has grown and we are all very excited about Day 1 developing F.E.A.R. 3 and exploring areas of the mythos with a new perspective. We are eager to see what Denny and his talented team creates in this rich universe.”

Denny Thorley, Day 1 Studios:
“We have established a great rapport with the Monolith team. It was immediately apparent when we took on F.E.A.R. 3 that our relationship with Monolith was not only going to be productive and fun; it was clearly going to benefit the game. Both teams brought their cool ideas to the table and contributed to setting a direction that makes F.E.A.R. 3 a fresh, compelling experience while remaining true to the core tenets of the F.E.A.R. universe.”

There you have it, official confirmation that F.E.A.R. 3 is coming for you. We’d say be afraid, but that’s kind of a given at this point, isn’t it?
