Frictional Games, renowned for its iconic contributions to the horror genre with series like Amnesia and the sci-fi thriller SOMA, has given fans a chilling first glimpse of its next project. 
In a recent teaser video titled ‘Frictional_Next_Project.mp4,’ the studio leaves much to the imagination while setting the stage for what could be another unforgettable horror experience.
The trailer is intentionally vague, featuring a series of atmospheric shots that slowly zoom and pan across eerie environments. Some scenes depict what appears to be a grand hall, while others show research labs and dark, concealed spaces hidden behind walls. Each setting is steeped in shadows, with dark lighting that perfectly captures Frictional’s trademark unsettling atmosphere.
One of the trailer’s most intriguing elements is the faint echo of chanting voices. Though the words are barely discernible, their presence heightens the sense of mystery and dread that the video exudes. As we shift from one haunting shot to the next, it’s clear that the trailer is more than just a visual preview – it’s designed to draw us into the eerie, unknown world that Frictional is crafting.
In the description for the trailer, there’s a link to a mysterious website called Hotel Samsara. The hotel, which appears briefly in the video, adds another layer of intrigue. A closer look at the site reveals a space where visitors can sign up for updates – an option that leads to an odd question: “Are you One of many or One and only?” This cryptic inquiry only fuels the speculation about what this new project might be.
Fans of Frictional Games, especially those familiar with SOMA, have already started speculating. Some members of the community have compiled a detailed spreadsheet of clues that they believe point toward this being a new entry in the SOMA universe. While the speculation remains just that for now, it’s clear that Frictional Games is setting the stage for something truly spine-chilling.
While we don’t yet know the full details, it’s clear that Frictional Games is crafting something special. Whether it’s a return to the world of SOMA or an entirely new horror experience, fans are eagerly awaiting more information on what’s to come. Stay tuned, as the mystery deepens, and the anticipation grows.

A hotel? Creepy chanting? Yeah, SOMA vibes for sure. Just don’t let it be another Amnesia clone please 🙏
