Forgive Me Father 2 sees players once again journey into a malevolent world inspired by the works of H.P Lovecraft, where madness never sleeps. The action continues the story of the Priest from the first instalment as he descends into his darkest nightmares on a path to righteous salvation. 

Players will be driven to the brink of insanity as they take on hordes of deranged cultists and diverse, eldritch enemies using a vast and varied arsenal of deadly weapons - each featuring powerful variations designed to cause absolute mayhem and wreak utter destruction. A freshly re-imagined and expanded madness system ratchets up the action even further, bestowing unimaginable power to those who choose to fully embrace insanity.

Forgive Me Father 2 elevates the unique and distinctive, dark comic-like visuals of the original game with improved sprites and models. Players will behold satisfyingly juicy blood effects and bear witness to eye-popping animated gibs that fly in all directions, as unimaginable ancient evils are torn asunder. The action is underpinned by a heart-pumping soundtrack that effortlessly blends dark Lovecraftian undertones and atmospherics with face-melting guitars and chest-thumping drums.


Fulqrum Publishing and Polish studio Byte Barrel are excited to share new gameplay for the upcoming Lovecraftian horror retro FPS sequel, Forgive Me Father 2, showing never before seen fifth level from its upcoming release. 

The game launches in Early Access for PC on October 19, 2023, with a free demo now available on Steam, featuring the game's first two levels. Indescribable terrors await players as they continue the unearthly journey of the Priest in this second instalment to Forgive Me Father, which builds on the critically-lauded 2022 original with a darker story, new unearthly lighting effects and improved gunplay, and further gameplay enhancements.

From war-torn trenches and haunted villas to desecrated cathedrals… get ready to lose your sanity across 10 dread-inducing new levels, each representing a new nightmare created by the Great Old Ones. These terrors distort the protagonist’s memories and transport the player into an intense fight for survival, where they must investigate to find where the nightmares end and reality begins.

Unleash hell with 10 unforgiving weapon, perfectly crafted to fight off the Eldritch hordes:

  • Knife - A simple but deadly knife, perfect for slashing opponents and basically every activity where blades are involved. Useful for finishing off weak or wounded enemies and saving ammunition.
  • Axe - Perfect for both chopping logs and splitting cultists in half. Powerful but slow melee weapon that allows you to take down multiple foes with one swing!
  • Revolver - Old, but gold in terms of classic firearms. High damage with perfect first-shot accuracy makes it a great fit for the careful type. It can get unwieldy in the heat of combat, though, since faster shots are inaccurate and reloading takes a while.
  • Pistol - Don't let the form factor fool you - this one bites! Shoots fast, reloads even faster and has fantastic accuracy. Will get you out of any situation.
  • Pump Shotgun - Kicks hard, but hits your enemies harder. Its high firepower and decent firing speed make it a very effective weapon for close-combat encounters.
  • Double Barrel Shotgun - Double the barrels for double the fun! A hand-decorated shotgun that tears apart enemies with a single pull of the trigger. Its strength compensates for its long reload time
  • Rifle - Fast firing killing machine - mass produced for a reason! Shoots a lot of bullets and deals a lot of damage, which is fantastic against tougher opponents or groups. Ammo isn't cheap though, so don't over rely on this gun!
  • Grenade Launcher - Your weapon of choice when fighting hordes of enemies. Rumours have it that this explosive firearm was pulled from the bottom of the ocean, but don't worry, it blows up cultists and monsters just fine.
  • Rocket Launcher - Very explosive and always hungry killing machine. A dangerous living weapon that is almost impossible to tame. The bullets it spits out can destroy even the most eternal of evils.
  • Mortar - Don’t let its friendly appearance fool you! This gentle, plant-eating entity can obliterate hordes of enemies with its explosive shots in the blink of an eye.

Challenge your fragile psyche with the 4 layers of madness skills:

  • Resistance - Madness makes your pain go away, making you almost indestructible. Significantly reduces incoming damage from all sources.
  • Haste - Makes you the fastest gunman in the universe. Significantly boost your fire rate and reload speed. 
  • Lifesteal - Who needs med kits when you have this? A percentage of damage you deal heals your wounds. 
  • Might - Makes you feel more powerful than ever, but at what cost? Madness fills your body and weapons, causing you to deal additional damage to enemies. 

Key Features:

  • Distinctive dark comic-like visuals: Dark hand-drawn graphic design where every frame looks like a page from a comic book is one of the pillars of Forgive Me Father, and the sequel brings a fresh perspective to its unique style with improved sprites and models. Prepare to feast your eyes on juicy blood effects and animated gibs flying everywhere!
  • Dive into the madness: Defeat Lovecraftian nightmares with a wide range of weapons. Fight hosts of diverse, formidable enemies and beware: each and every one of them evolves into different, ever more evil and twisted forms of themselves.
  • Gear up and fight!: Define your own playstyle and assemble the deadliest arsenal with plenty of weapons to choose from, each with even more powerful variations designed to cause absolute mayhem and bring utter destruction upon your foes. Take your pick from devastating shotguns, lethally accurate rifles, explosive firearms, and unleash their full potential.
  • Dynamic madness system: Overwhelming madness is your best friend and worst enemy at the same time. Embrace the insanity and become more powerful with a dynamic power-up system. Strengthen yourself by picking new unlocks along the way and blast through hordes of enemies with wild abandon!
  • Original soundtrack: Experience the surprisingly fitting combination of strong electric guitar riffs and energetic drums underscoring the dark Lovecraftian atmosphere. Slay hordes of deranged cultists and confront unimaginable ancient evil while listening to the original soundtrack that will make you headbang for hours on end.
