About This Game

Set in the year 2062, players are equipped with advanced technology that allows them to enter and exit the Backrooms at will. The MEG, originally formed by those trapped inside the Backrooms, has since evolved into a structured organization operating both within and outside the Backrooms. Now established in the real world, the MEG oversees controlled exploration and rescue operations. As part of this expanded initiative, players' missions begin in the real world before venturing into the Backrooms to extract lost operatives. Every mission becomes a race against time to locate these lost team members, transmit their coordinates to the MEG, and ensure their extraction while navigating terrifying entities and oppressive environments.

Solo & Multiplayer Experience

Backrooms Extractions offers a flexible experience, allowing players to venture into the Backrooms solo for a tense and immersive journey or team up with up to 5 others for a cooperative challenge. Work together to strategize, navigate treacherous environments, and execute extractions efficiently, ensuring the best chance of survival and success.

Innovative Extraction Gameplay

Move beyond mere survival by rescuing lost MEG operatives trapped in the Backrooms. With advanced tools and specialized suits, every mission feels high-stakes and rewarding as you work to secure their extraction.

Available Levels

Backrooms Extractions launches in Early Access with 8 distinct levels, each offering unique challenges and eerie atmospheres: Lobby, Habitable Zone, Paradise, Attic Floorboard, Utility Halls, Fun, The End, and The Suburbs. More levels will be introduced throughout development to expand the depth and variety of the game world.

Puzzle Challenges

Each level in Backrooms Extractions features a unique puzzle or challenge that players must solve to unlock the exit and progress further. However, solving these puzzles is never a straightforward task—players must do so while evading the lurking entities that roam each level, adding constant tension and urgency to every move.

Dynamic Progression

Tackle increasingly challenging levels while managing fear—for yourself and your team. Push forward as long as you can, or risk being drawn to "The End."

Entities of the Backrooms

Backrooms Extractions launches in Early Access with 7 terrifying entities, each with unique behaviors and threats: Smiler, Duller, Wretches, Hound, Transporter, Skin Stealer, and Party Goer. More entities will be introduced in future updates to expand the challenges and horrors lurking in the Backrooms.

Immersive Atmosphere & Awareness

Backrooms Extractions delivers a deeply immersive experience through a meticulously crafted audiovisual design. Players must stay constantly aware of their surroundings, relying on subtle visual cues and environmental sounds to detect lurking entities, identify clues for solving puzzles, and locate key objectives. The in-game VOIP system further enhances the tension, forcing players to communicate carefully while avoiding unwanted attention. Every sound, shadow, and flicker of light could mean the difference between survival and becoming the next lost soul in the Backrooms.
