The title is developed by Saibot Studios and published by New Blood Interactive, with Andrés Borghi listed as a key developer.

Players can expect a single-player experience focused on puzzle-solving and combat against hostile creatures within a dark, atmospheric setting. A distinctive feature of Tenebris Somnia is its integration of live-action cutscenes, which are produced by an award-winning film crew from Argentina. These sequences, created using practical effects and real actors, are designed to unfold at specific key points in the game's narrative, offering a contrast to the game's pixel art style.
