Steam reviews

What players say

Free, fun SCP horror with guns, but early access leaves the single-player story unfinished and updates slow.

Players enjoy the atmosphere of the original Containment Breach, the sound design and the tension of facing SCP objects with weapons for the first time. Many players praise the multiplayer and the Waves mode as a fun way to play with friends, and some like the new perspective as a Mobile Task Force unit. Complaints centre on an unfinished single-player campaign with no clear ending, SCPs that cannot be contained, slow updates and dead public servers. Several players report bugs, softlocks, crashes and very dark levels without a light source. Recent reviews are not covered here, but the older helpful reviews are mixed to positive, with many players saying the game is worth trying for free while expecting more content.

Criticised

  • Unfinished single-player

    Players say the story mode has no clear ending and feels unfinished or boring.

    Many players

    Players report crashes, softlocks in elevators, unplayable stutter and performance issues.

    Many players
  • Dark visuals and weak AI

    Players complain that levels are very dark with no light source, and that companions and NPCs path badly.

    Some players
Who it suits
Suits fans of SCP and Containment Breach who want to play as a Mobile Task Force unit, especially with friends in co-op or Waves.
Who should skip it
Players wanting a finished single-player campaign with a clear ending should skip it for now, as should anyone who dislikes bugs and dark levels.

Short vs. long playtime: Players with under 20 hours are more mixed, mostly noting the unfinished story and bugs, while players with 20 to 200 hours mostly recommend it for the multiplayer and co-op fun.
