From Press Release:
Buenos Aires, Argentina – September 25th, 2026: New Blood Interactive and developer Saibot Studios today confirmed pricing, age ratings and final key art for Tenebris Somnia, the 2D retro survival horror adventure with live-action cutscenes, ahead of its launch on October 16, 2026.
Pricing
Tenebris Somnia will launch digitally for $24.99 USD. Players who purchase it during the launch window will receive a 20% discount, bringing the price to $19.99 USD. Owners of FAITH: The Unholy Trinity will receive an additional discount thanks to FAITH creator and Tenebris Somnia Executive Producer – Mason “Airdorf” Smith.
New Blood is also committing to aggressive regional pricing, particularly across Latin America, to put the game in the hands of as many players as possible. The team will aim to keep this pricing as close as possible on console versions, and game bundles with partners such as Team17, Critical Reflex and DreadXP are also planned.
Physical editions are available for pre-order from Lost In Cult and will retail from between £29.99 – £59.99 GBP depending on platform and edition.
“Tenebris Somnia is survival horror the way we remember it. You’ll only ever have just enough health, just enough ammo, and just enough of a brain to get through the next puzzle” said Dave Oshry, CEO of New Blood Interactive.
“But what Andrés and his crew from Argentina have intertwined into the experience with their cinematics elevates the genre to another level, and we want as many people around the world to experience this nightmare as we can.
So we’re launching at $19.99, going aggressive on regional pricing across regions like LATAM, and giving
FAITH players an extra discount for being with us from the start.
This is art, and it deserves to be seen by as many people as possible.”

About the Game
Tenebris Somnia is a 2D retro survival horror adventure game with live action cutscenes created by an award winning film crew from Argentina. Unveil the depths of a disturbing story by solving puzzles and fighting horrible creatures What if they aren’t just nightmares?
But the secrets of the game lie within its cinematics…
Shot on location in Buenos Aires, Argentina with real actors and practical effects, they reveal the story from a perspective the pixels can’t show. The game and cinematics are directed by the acclaimed Andrés Borghi, with FAITH: The Unholy Trinity creator Mason “Airdorf” Smith serving as Executive Producer while Tobias Rusjan and his team at Saibot Studios handle development.
WITH ABSOLUTELY NO GENERATIVE AI.
“I grew up on games like Silent Hill and Resident Evil, and I became a filmmaker because of movies that scared me. Tenebris Somnia is where those two worlds finally meet. New Blood had never made anything with live action cutscenes before, but much like with FAITH – they understood straight away that the film element only works if the game underneath is great.” said Andrés Borghi, director of Tenebris Somnia. “It’s old school survival horror that respects the player: the pixels let your imagination fill in the horror. The twist is that when the nightmare turns real, we filmed it for real. And the live action shows you exactly what you were afraid of.”
