F.E.A.R. 3

F.E.A.R. 3 is a horror action game in which Point Man and his brother Paxton Fettel face a deadly mission to confront their mother, Alma. As Alma’s pregnancy advances, the brothers battle through a hellish nightmare and an army of soldiers and paranormal enemies.

Point Man and Fettel

You can play as either brother. Point Man is a genetically enhanced soldier with superhuman reflexes and the ability to manipulate time. Paxton Fettel is an undead spirit with powerful psychic abilities who can possess others.

The game’s Divergent Co-op lets players take on the brothers’ distinct roles and abilities. Their differences affect each player’s experience and that of the people they play with or against.

Combat and the Almaverse

Combat features active 360-degree cover, slow-motion modes, scoring systems and mech combat. The world is tainted by the Almaverse, an alternate dimension where Alma’s psychic essence subsists. Creatures born from her warped mind spill into reality and add to the threat.

Changing encounters

A generative system creates random events to make playing alone or with a friend feel more isolated and unpredictable, and to offer new experiences on each playthrough.

Story and cinematics

The story explores the characters’ motivations and family dynamics. Writer Steve Niles co-wrote the storyline, while film director John Carpenter helped craft the cinematics.
