F.E.A.R. Online is more of F.E.A.R. … but it’s online

If you're a fan of the F.E.A.R. series and just want more and more of it, I have some good news for you. Aeria Games, a publisher of many free-to-play online games, announced that they are bringing F.E.A.R. Online to the United States. It's a new chapter in the F.E.A.R. franchise that will "deliver hardcore multiplayer shooting action while furthering the dark and ominous story surrounding Alma Wade."

F.E.A.R. Online will have several team combat modes and over 10 maps that feature some dark details such as twitching bodies hanging from meat hooks and the all-too-popular messages smeared in blood. Soul King mode also will be returning, which challenges players to possess enemies for new abilities and collect more fallen souls than their opponents.

The story will also continue in cooperative scenarios that will detail the experience of the F.E.A.R. team parallel to the events of F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin, featuring up to four players.
