By DylanMay 15,2025

Developer Ice Code Games, renowned for titles like Hard West II and Rogue Waters, has unveiled their latest project, Nightmare Frontier. This tactical turn-based strategy game combines the thrill of extraction looting, drawing inspiration from classics like XCOM and Hunt: Showdown, with a chilling twist of Cthulhu-esque horror. Dive into the atmosphere with the announcement trailer and explore the first screenshots in our gallery below.

Set in an alternate 19th-century America, the narrative of Nightmare Frontier unfolds in the aftermath of a mysterious event that blurred the lines between reality and an unknown terror. The world is now overrun by monstrous entities known as Dreadweavers, born from the dark abysses of a terror dimension. These creatures embody the deepest fears of humanity. As the ringleader, players must navigate this nightmarish landscape, leading a group of scavengers through the city's depths in a desperate search for survival and loot.
