The update doesn’t actually show many brand-new monsters; however, pausing the video at around 2:35 reveals what appears to be a creepy, multi-legged centipede-like creature on a monitor.

Otherwise, the clip concentrates on the monster design process and the tone the team is aiming for in the new content.

“I hope players feel these additions inject fresh energy into the game,” said semiwork co-CEO Axel Landén. “They’re not just old enemies in new skins — they should reinvigorate the entire gameplay loop.”

Another developer noted the update will make the game “play more like a proper horror title now — more than it did before.”

That tone clashes with the previous update from semiwork, which introduced a new “tumble-grab” mechanic that developers described, in their own words, as letting players “twerk enemies to death.”

In the meantime, turn off the lights, light a candle, and pick something from our list of the best horror games to play this spooky season.
