F.E.A.R. Extraction Point is an expansion pack for the psychological horror first-person shooter video game F.E.A.R., published by Sierra Entertainment and developed by TimeGate Studios (rather than Monolith Productions, the developers of F.E.A.R.). It was released on October 24, 2006 for Microsoft Windows and requires the full original game in order to be played. Also, a stand-alone single player demo has been previously released. The expansion was ported to the Xbox 360 and released as part of the F.E.A.R. Files package on November 6, 2007.
This expansion owes its name to the game's ultimate goal for the player, to reach the extraction point and leave the city where the adventure takes place. Extraction Point adds new weapons, enemies, and single-player levels, but no new multiplayer content. Additional improvements were also made to the enemy artificial intelligence. The sequel to F.E.A.R., F.E.A.R. 2: Project Origin, ignores the events of both expansion packs.
The plot of the expansion starts off exactly where the original game left off; while the huge explosion of the "Origin Facility" has flattened the Auburn district and devastated the city, the helicopter evacuating the survivors of the F.E.A.R. team crash lands in the midst of the chaos.
The player is reunited with SFOD-D Douglas Holiday and F.E.A.R. technical officer Jin Sun-Kwon at the crash site. Continuing from there, the player meets Fettel in a nearby church. Fettel notes that the circumstances do not make sense since he had been killed. He continues by reactivating the Replica soldiers, who have been dormant since his death, and sends them after the player. Holiday mentions that an SFOD-D extraction point has been established at the roof of Auburn Memorial Hospital, informing the Point Man (the player) that he should proceed there as well. Meanwhile, Kwon is captured by Fettel's Replicas, but she is later able to escape while being transported via the subway; from there, she proceeds on her own to Auburn Hospital. The player and Holiday eventually meet up and navigate through the warehouse district of the city, facing great Replica resistance along the way. Eventually Alma, through her apparitions, violently murders Holiday.
