The Coma 3: Bloodlines

About The Coma 3: Bloodlines

The Coma 3: Bloodlines is the third and last game in The Coma series, developed by Dvora Studio and published by Headup with Thermite Games. It came out on 30 April 2026 for PC, PlayStation 4 and 5 and Xbox One and Series X|S, and on Nintendo Switch on 16 June 2026. It concludes the story of Sehwa High School that began in The Coma, and the store promises many secrets from the earlier games unravelled.

Behind the scenes of Sehwa Private High School, the Sehwa Foundation has long studied the Coma, a nightmare dimension that mirrors our world. Opposing them are the Ghost Vigilantes. Now wraiths of the past have crossed the ages, and the once-quiet Coma has become a realm of nightmare again. There, rumours and urban legends become reality, and a living intruder who dies is severed from their spirit and never wakes.

Mostly you cannot fight. Shadows run amok and hideous puppets hunt you, so you hide when you have the chance and wait for the moment to move. This time the game leaves the familiar school for new places across Seoul, with tighter, more enclosed areas and four bosses from a cursed history, each with its own attack pattern. You switch between three characters from the series, sometimes replaying a scene from another one's side: one is better at stealth, another takes more punishment, and for the first time in the series one of them can stand and fight at certain moments, though reviewers found that combat simple.

Between chases you explore, read notes and documents, manage a small inventory and solve puzzles, which reviewers call the best part of the game. Their main complaints are enemies that pop up behind a hiding spot and save points spaced far apart, so a death can send you back through a long stretch. The comic-book art shows neon-lit Seoul streets, a candlelit office and faces twisted by the curse, with Korean voice acting and loud stings for its scares.

Newcomers can follow it as a story of its own, but returning characters and villains mean more to those who played The Coma: Recut and The Coma 2: Vicious Sisters first.

How to play The Coma 3: Bloodlines

5. Learn each boss's attack pattern to get past it, and carry the story through to its end.

Tips

• Play The Coma: Recut and The Coma 2 first if you can; this one closes their story and brings back their characters.
• Before you leave a hiding spot, wait longer than feels needed: reviewers were often caught by a hunter still standing just outside.
• Save points are far apart, so save whenever you reach one before pushing into a new area.
• Notes and some story items can be missed for good, and the true ending needs three of those items, so search each area before you leave it.
