Quick answers
FEAR OF FAITH: frequently asked questions
What is FEAR OF FAITH?
FEAR OF FAITH is a 1–4 player dieselpunk survival horror game set in cursed alternate-WWII bunkers. Players explore procedurally generated expeditions, recover SYNTRUM, use weapons and spells, manage FEAR and FAITH, and prepare for dangerous B.O.S.S. encounters.
Is FEAR OF FAITH multiplayer?
Yes. FEAR OF FAITH supports online co-op for up to four players. It can also be played solo.
Can you play FEAR OF FAITH solo?
Yes. The Steam version supports single-player as well as online co-op. However, many classes and spells are designed to create useful combinations between teammates.
How many classes are in FEAR OF FAITH?
The current Early Access version has four playable classes: Soldier, Medic, Scout, and Priest.
What is the best class in FEAR OF FAITH?
There is no officially confirmed best class. Each class has its own passives and spells, so the strongest choice depends on your team composition, playstyle, and the spells you unlock.
How many spells are in FEAR OF FAITH?
The current official Steam Early Access description confirms more than 30 spells. Because the game is still being actively developed, the total may change during Early Access.
How does FEAR work in FEAR OF FAITH?
Casting spells consumes FAITH, which can put your character into FEAR. Certain enemies can also drain FAITH. Letting the system spiral out of control can trigger increasingly dangerous supernatural effects.
How do you reduce FEAR?
Officially confirmed ways to control FEAR include drinking alcohol, using certain ally spells, keeping generator lights active, and buying COPIUM during a mission.
How do you restore FAITH?
An active generator can restore FAITH while its lights are powered. Class abilities and other systems may also interact with FAITH, so the exact best method depends on your build and team.
Should you turn on the generator?
It depends on what your team needs. An active generator restores FAITH and slightly weakens some threats, but it can also block routes containing valuable loot. Turning it on is therefore a safety-versus-reward decision.
What does fuel do in FEAR OF FAITH?
Fuel is used to keep important bunker systems such as generators running. Gameplay footage shows players actively searching for and carrying fuel during expeditions.
What is SYNTRUM?
SYNTRUM is described by the developers as the essence of those who never returned from the cursed bunkers. Recovering it is a major part of the game’s expedition and progression loop.
Are FEAR OF FAITH maps randomly generated?
Yes. Bunker expeditions use procedural generation, so layouts and gameplay situations can change between runs.
Does FEAR OF FAITH have bosses?
Yes. Boss encounters are part of the current Early Access version, and the developers plan to add more boss encounters as development continues.
Are weapons permanent in FEAR OF FAITH?
Weapons and equipment are part of the expedition and progression systems, but Early Access mechanics can change. The official Steam page confirms 10 weapons in the current version and says players can collect resources and unlock upgrades.
Can weapons break?
Current gameplay footage shows weapons breaking during expeditions. This should be treated as a video-tested Early Access mechanic rather than a permanent rule for every weapon until the developers document the durability system in more detail.
How do you kill GHOULS?
Gameplay footage shows players successfully using decapitation against some enemies. However, there is not enough official documentation yet to claim that every GHOUL must always be killed this way. Treat enemy-specific kill methods as Early Access information that may change.
Can you interact with the environment using spells?
Yes. The developers specifically highlight environmental interactions such as igniting oil, electrifying water, turning a GHOUL into a RAT, and using stealth-focused spells such as Silent Step.
Can you throw items to teammates?
Yes. Physical items can be picked up, carried, thrown, and even caught by teammates. Be careful with active explosives.
What does beer do in FEAR OF FAITH?
Beer and other alcohol can help control FEAR. Drinking too much may also produce unwanted effects, so it is better treated as a survival resource rather than something to consume constantly.
Do cats do anything in FEAR OF FAITH?
Gameplay footage shows a player interacting with a cat and observing an apparent recovery effect. Cats can also be extracted during missions. Because the exact effect has not been clearly documented by the developers, this should currently be labeled as video-tested rather than officially confirmed.
What is Pocket Dimension?
Pocket Dimension is a spell seen in current gameplay that allows players to temporarily store or move items through a magical space. Exact behavior and balance may change during Early Access.
What does the Medic class do?
The Medic is primarily a support-oriented class. Gameplay footage shows Medic abilities focused on healing teammates, including Circle of Rejuvenation.
What does the Priest class do?
The Priest focuses heavily on FAITH, spells, and team support. Early gameplay suggests that Priest abilities can be especially useful when managing supernatural pressure and FEAR-related situations.
Is there a best team composition?
There is currently no officially confirmed best team composition. The game encourages class and spell synergy, so balanced squads may be easier for new players, while specialized teams can experiment with more unusual strategies.
Is FEAR OF FAITH permadeath?
The official website describes death as permanent, but the exact consequences can depend on the current Early Access systems. Because progression and balance are still being developed, players should expect this mechanic to evolve.
Is FEAR OF FAITH in Early Access?
Yes. FEAR OF FAITH entered Steam Early Access on August 21, 2026.
How long will FEAR OF FAITH stay in Early Access?
The developers currently estimate approximately one year, although they say the schedule may change depending on development progress and player feedback.
What will be added during Early Access?
The developers plan to expand the game with more maps, enemies, boss encounters, spells, and game modes, while also improving balance, performance, animations, interface elements, and existing systems.
How many weapons are in FEAR OF FAITH?
The current official Early Access description lists 10 weapons. This number may increase as the game receives new content.
What are the FEAR OF FAITH system requirements?
The current Steam minimum requirements include Windows 10 64-bit, 16 GB RAM, a GTX 1060 6 GB or equivalent graphics card, DirectX 11, and 15 GB of available storage. The recommended GPU is currently an RTX 3060.
