Welcome to Sunnybrook is a single-player first-person horror game headed to PC through Steam in Fall 2026. It puts players in the role of a burglar targeting wealthy vacation homes, then removes the expected danger of alarms and police when prehistoric predators invade the community. With no weapons available, the game is aimed at players who prefer stealth, exploration, and tense survival over direct combat. There is no confirmed launch date yet, but the project is already available to wishlist on Steam.
What changes when the burglary goes wrong?
The game begins in Sunnybrook, a quiet lakeside community filled with seasonal properties that are mostly empty. Set in the 1990s, the opening scenario focuses on familiar burglary tasks such as lockpicking, opening safes, and interfering with security systems. The protagonist expects to avoid detection while taking valuables from luxurious homes. That plan collapses when dinosaurs arrive, transforming houses, shops, the local school, and other locations into dangerous spaces to search and cross. The central hook is the sudden change in priorities: tools and routes intended for theft may become essential for escaping predators.
Who should keep an eye on this Steam release?
Welcome to Sunnybrook is best suited to horror players who enjoy being vulnerable rather than heavily armed. The game does not provide weapons, so survival depends on hiding, moving quietly, misleading predators, and sprinting away when stealth fails. Breaking Dimensions is developing the project with Polygon Dust, following their earlier dinosaur horror games Oakwood and Rip Current. Those titles also focused on surviving encounters with prehistoric creatures, although this new setting shifts the action from an abandoned campground or flooded research facility to an affluent residential community. A short teaser trailer is currently the main public look at the game.
What comes next before launch?
Breaking Dimensions currently targets Fall 2026 for the PC release on Steam, without naming a specific day. The store listing includes Steam Achievements, Steam Cloud, and Family Sharing support. Players considering the game should also check its hardware requirements: the minimum setup lists an Intel Core i5-7600K, GTX 1070, 8GB of RAM, and 15GB of storage. The recommended configuration raises that to an RTX 3060 Ti and 16GB of memory. Until more footage or a firm release date appears, wishlisting is the clearest way to follow development.

Expert View
The premise gives Welcome to Sunnybrook a clear identity without relying on a new type of dinosaur. Its strongest possibility is the way burglary systems could become survival tools, especially if familiar homes offer meaningful hiding places and escape routes. The lack of weapons should support the tension, but the game will need varied stealth encounters and strong level design to avoid making every chase feel alike. For now, it is a promising Steam wishlist candidate rather than a proven must-play.
