The basics

How many players can play?

1–4, online only. The store lists single-player, co-op and online co-op — but no split-screen or local play, so everyone joins over the internet. The password-protected lobby system (added in the first patch after launch) makes private sessions with friends easy.

Can you play solo?

Yes. It's harder the way memory games are harder alone — nobody to confirm what you saw — but solo runs are a supported way to learn a map's anchors. Host a private lobby and do a slow lap.

Is there crossplay?

There's nothing to cross-play with: Anomaly Company is PC (Windows) only, and no console version exists. Crossplay becomes a question if that changes.

How much does it cost?

$7.99 on Steam. For discounts, check the store page — it's the only official channel.

Does it have voice chat?

Yes — sessions have voice and text chat for your crew, and for callouts over a suspicious lobby chair, that's half the game.

Content, maps and updates

How many anomalies are there?

107 documented — 50 on the Office and 57 on the Hotel. They spawn from a pool each run rather than appearing all at once, and the pool has grown before: three new Office anomalies arrived in the very first patch after launch. The full checklists: Office and Hotel.

Are there achievements?

No — the store page lists none, and there are no leaderboards either. Both exist in The Anomaly Project, so it's a notable step back, and one of the most-requested additions.

Will the Asylum map come back?

Unannounced. The developer pulled it on September 14, 2026 over its Outlast resemblance, said a replacement map "will most likely take me a few months again," and hasn't posted an update since. The full story is here.

Will there be more maps and anomalies?

The pattern so far says yes, slowly: the Hotel arrived three weeks after Early Access began, 1.0 brought the (short-lived) Asylum, and the developer has said each map will "continue to grow and evolve over time." No public roadmap exists.

Comfort and performance

Why is everything blurry when I turn?

That's the motion blur. There's no toggle, and it's forced on at Medium and above — setting the graphics preset to Low is the reliable fix. Settings guide →

Can I invert the mouse?

No, and players have been asking since launch. There's no y-axis inversion option.

Is it actually scary?

Yes, in the classic ways: both maps deliver jumpscares (Gavin on the Office; the Umbrella Killer on the Hotel), and the Hotel escalates into brief chase moments. If you want a warm-up, the Office is the gentler map — learn it first.

About this site

Where do the anomaly lists come from?

Community records on Steam compiled during Early Access (February–March 2026), reworded and reorganised by us, then cross-checked against the current build. The developer has never published an official list. Spot something we don't have? Tell us.
