Taking inspiration from the real-life SCP Foundation collaborative writing project, SCP: Secret Files tells a number of stories concerning the activities of the fictional organisation tasked with protecting humanity from otherworldly phenomena and anomalies. You join as an assistant researcher, and must complete a strenuous induction program that will make you question everything you know. Featuring multiple protagonists and gameplay styles, and relaying its story through cutting edge Unreal Engine technology, SCP: Secret Files aims to be the most faithful video game adaptation of the SCP mythology to date.

 

Xiaoliang, Producer at GameZoo Studio said: “It’s our privilege with this game to bring to life some of the most iconic and memorable cases from the SCP Foundation. SCP-701 ’The Hanged King’s Tragedy’ is one of the team’s favourite tales and we can’t wait to see what players think of our adaptation! Be prepared for plenty of scares and keep your eyes peeled for some other special SCP easter eggs!”
