The “bodycam” sub-genre is having a serious moment in gaming, and Raspberry Studio is about to crank up the tension. The indie developer has officially confirmed that A.A.U. Black Site, its hyper-realistic psychological horror FPS, will deploy into Steam Early Access on May 21, 2026.
If you’ve been following the project since its standout showing at Steam Next Fest, you’ll know this isn’t just another tactical shooter. It’s a claustrophobic descent into madness that blurs the line between a military operation and a supernatural nightmare.
What to Expect at Launch
When the game hits Early Access on the 21st, players will have immediate access to the first two major missions:
- “God’s Chosen”: Face off against a terrifying demonic presence.
- “Guilt Trip”: A mission that promises to challenge your tactical grit and your sanity.
Raspberry Studio, a small but dedicated team of three friends based in Serbia, has built the game using the Unity Engine with a heavy focus on photorealistic “found-footage” aesthetics. The goal? Peak immersion. You aren’t just playing a character; you are seeing the world through the lens of a tactical bodycam, complete with lens distortion and grimy, high-fidelity environments.
The Story: Betrayal in Uzovnica
You step into the boots of an operative in the covert A.A.U. Special Forces. What starts as a routine mission in the abandoned Serbian region of Uzovnica quickly goes south. Intercepted, framed, and cut off from any support, you are left to survive in a hostile territory where reality itself begins to fracture.
“The bodycam is still recording, capturing every moment of your assignment. From the mundane… to the supernatural.”
Key Features
- Tactical Depth: Over 20 weapons will be available, including assault rifles, SMGs, and pistols. You can choose to go “tactical” or “loud,” though in a psychological horror setting, caution is usually your best friend.
- Psychological Horror: Inspired by classics like F.E.A.R. and modern tactical sims like Ready or Not, the game balances intense gunplay with a dark, oppressive atmosphere.
- Community-Driven Development: Raspberry Studio plans to remain in Early Access for roughly a year, using player feedback to shape future chapters, weapons, and enemy types.
