ABOUT

Project Grail is a modern retro-FPS created by just two developers over the course of two years. The idea was born when one of the creators worked at John Romero’s studio and after seeing original concepts and photos from the 90s, wondered:

" What would an old-school shooter feel like if it were rebuilt today with modern gameplay and a nostalgic style? "

From that question grew a polished vertical slice – fast, gory, and relentless, made in Unreal Engine 5. Project Grail is not a remake, but a new vision: capturing the raw energy of the classics while pushing it into the present.

We blend 90s shooter nostalgia with modern visuals, stylized graphics, and fluid movement mechanics, Project Grail is easy to jump into and hard to put down, a deadly run through myth, mystery and mayhem.

Players will explore a misterious castle filled with secrets and danger where they have to rely on their senses.
Equipped with an unnatural gift for intense focus, the protagonist can momentarily slow down time, allowing for short combat advantages. This rare ability offers a unique edge in combat, turning each encounter into a deadly attack.

We have plans to release a free demo in 2026.
