Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Currently, the game has a very solid base; However it is lacking in Content.
To determine the direction in which the game should evolve, it is necessary to evaluate feedback on its current state.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“At least for a year.
But probably longer.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“It is planned to add more Content like new Levels, Entities, Factions and an improved Escape mechanic and to fix any bugs.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Can be found in the description.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“The price will probably increase after leaving Early Access.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“Feedback from the community will be taken into account when deciding, what new Content to add.
If users report negative feedback about some features, they may be reworked or removed.
If bugs are reported, every effort will be made to fix them.”

About This Game

Only few people ever ended up in the Backrooms.

Even fewer made it out to tell the tale.

Backrooms Open World is an attempt to recreate the Backrooms as realistically as possible; This includes atmospheric environments, the opportunity for social interactions, a physics-based melee combat system, a faction system and much more.

This game contains an integrated asynchronous Massively Multiplayer mode (currently supporting up to 100 players on one server), but there is still an option to play in Single Player mode or in private Lobbies with friends.

  • 7 Levels

  • 5 Entities

  • 2 Factions

  • Singleplayer & Multiplayer

  • Free Navigation between Levels

  • PvPvE

  • Asynchronous Multiplayer

  • One official Server

  • Proximity Voice Chat

  • Wraparound World

  • Progress Save between Sessions

  • Physics-based melee combat

  • VR Support

  • Escape Option

  • Customization Option

Since this is an Open World game, there are no predefined goals which means you can do whatever you want. A few examples would be:

  • Escaping the Backrooms

  • Wandering around

  • Fighting players from rival factions

  • Talking with other Backroom fans :)

Do whatever you want. No limitations.

  • Motion Blur & VHS can be toggled off in Settings

  • A VSync option is available

  • There is a key binding for toggling VR mode that allows you to switch between VR and non-VR mid-game

  • This project has been in development since January 2026
