F.E.A.R. Online was announced this morning as a free-to-play multiplayer shooter from Aeria Games. Continuing the dark story of Alma, this online shooter is looking to bring back the tense heart-pounding action that the franchise has been known for.

F.E.A.R. Online will focus on several team combat modes spanning over ten ominous maps packed with grotesque details such as still-twitching bodies hanging from meat hooks and messages smeared in blood. The battle rages between Armacham Technology Corporation (ATC) and the elite F.E.A.R. team.F.E.A.R. 3’s unique Soul King mode also makes a return, challenging players to possess enemies for new abilities and collect more fallen souls than their opponents.
The story also continues in cooperative scenarios that detail the terrifying occurrences surrounding the F.E.A.R. team parallel to the events of F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin. Up to four players can team up and fight for their lives against both hostile Armacham personnel and hideous monsters lurking around every corner.
F.E.A.R. Online will see a multiplayer beta ahead of release, and interested testers can head to the fearonline website for more details about how to participate.
