About BACKROOMS
In this atmospheric psychological horror experience, you awaken in the liminal expanse known only as the Backrooms. Welcome to the Backrooms: a place outside of time and space. It’s a game with real depth, with an adventure mode and a range of social game modes.
Go alone or bring up to 5 friends (1-6 players). Stay close and talk over cross-platform proximity voice chat. And yes, your hazmat suit has exactly one very serious emote.
Built in Unreal Engine 5, the Backrooms look and sound like the stories you’ve heard. It all starts in Level 0, and every level gets stranger the deeper you go.
You’re not alone down here. Entities roam the levels, and each one is a threat of its own. Watch, listen and keep moving.
Every level has more than one exit, and each one leads to a different level. Every path you take leads to a different experience, so no two runs play out the same.
Build your own levels with the in-game editor and publish them on Steam Workshop, or play levels and game modes made by the Backrooms community. Anyone can contribute, so there’s always something new to play.
Just want to unwind? Grab your friends and jump into Sandbox mode for party games.
