Anomaly-Hunting Horror Title ‘The 18th Attic’ Launches February 2 on PC [Trailer]

Steelkrill Studio’s upcoming anomaly hunting horror title The 18th Attic finally has a release date. Inspired by Fatal Frame, Steelkrill’s psychological horror title releases February 2, 2026 on Steam, GOG and the Epic Games Store.

The 18th Attic sees you step into the shoes of a man trapped in a mysterious loop in an attic, and the only way to break free is by hunting down the paranormal anomalies lurking in the shadows. Armed with just an instant picture camera and lighter, players must explore the attic and capture these paranormal anomalies in photos. You’ll need to use your lighter to illuminate the darker corners of the attic, as some anomalies may be hiding.

Each photo you take will unlock memories that reveal pieces of the your own past. However, even these photos will try to trick you, and some anomalies won’t be as as friendly as others. Also, you’ll need to be wary of not running out of photo cartridges. Do so, and you’ll be defenceless.

Complicating matters is the fact that as the environment twists into new shapes, supernatural encounters drain your sanity. The only way to recover your sanity is by petting your cat, a trusted companion who warns you of danger long before you see it.
