Description

It Hears You is a multiplayer co-op horror developed on Unreal Engine 5. Your research team sets up camp deep in the forest after a string of alarming reports from the region: animals are disappearing en masse, and the tracks left behind at the sites are far too strange to blame on ordinary predators. The last thing you remember is the sun setting over the tents. When you come to, it's the dead of night, your head is foggy, and several hours feel as if they've been erased from your memory. Communications are down, the radio hisses with static, the compass lies — and the forest around you is silent. Too silent…
Stag
Something is hunting nearby. Stag — a bipedal deer mutant and the new master of this forest. A stretched, towering silhouette, an unnaturally muscular body, massive antlers. He is nearly blind, but he hears everything: footsteps, breathing, the clink of gear, a carelessly snapped branch, even a stranger's heartbeat. The more noise you make, the faster he finds you — and the more savage his attack becomes. A few seconds are all it takes for everything to end.
Two Ways Out
The forest won't let you leave that easily. To escape, your team will have to choose one of two paths — or pursue both at once:
Fix the car. Find the missing parts scattered throughout the forest and drive away as fast as you can.
Power up the cell tower. Restore its power, call the world beyond the forest, and wait for evacuation.
Both paths demand time, noise, and stepping out into the open — which means drawing Stag's attention.
How to Survive
Listen more than you speak. Footsteps in the leaves, a distant crack, breathing behind your back — your best early warning system.
Split the roles. One hunts for parts, another works the tower, another watches the escape routes.
Use sound as bait. A thrown stone or a running engine can lure Stag in the wrong direction — if you're willing to take the risk.
Don't stay separated for long. Alone in this forest, you're already prey.
Key Features
Co-op for a small team with in-game voice chat — every word you say gives away your position.
Advanced sound design: Stag reacts to your voice, your actions, and the environment around you.
Procedurally generated parts and points of interest — every run plays out differently.
Each match brings a new location and a new set of items to find.
One Last Thing to Know
The animals didn't vanish by accident. Now you're on that list. Quiet. It hears you…

User Reviews
The game was quite bad, and difficult to play as the ai of the monster is bad, and camps at the tent.
I got some good laughs playing this game in coop however it only lasts for a few hours at most. Still worth a buy imho.
Played for the first time last night with friends. We had an absolute blast! The only criticism we came across is its almost too easy to struggle away from the mutant, making it frustrating when playing as them. But Im absolutely sure with time and updates, this game is going to be a staple on my channel!
Good game 10/10
I'm not sure why this game has received negative reviews because, based on my personal experience, I've had a great time playing it! The visuals look great, and the mechanics of playing as the Stagg are enjoyable. The developers are actively working on the game and communicate with members of their Discord community, which is a great sign of ongoing support.
I'd recommend giving this game a chance, especially if you have friends to play with. You can play solo against AI or enjoy multiplayer with up to six players in a lobby.
In my opinion, this is the best modern alternative to In Silence, an abandoned game that some players can no longer enjoy due to the lack of updates and issues with getting stuck on the loading screen. If you're looking for a similar experience, this game is worth checking out. It's also exciting to see the developers continuing to work on new mechanics and improve the overall experience. They already dropped a patch for balancing. For the current price its worthy!!!
Give it a shot with your friends and have some fun! I look forward to seeing how the game develops.
