Scavland, a top-down hardcore survival RPG set in the Soviet-style post-apocalyptic world of Zalesye, enters Early Access on Steam on September 5 (September 4 local time), with Japanese language support planned. The game has surpassed 100,000 wishlists ahead of launch.
Scavland is a top-down hardcore survival RPG developed by NoShadow and published by UNSUBSCRIBE. It is set in Zalesye, a region devastated by a mysterious fog called the Mist. Players take the role of a Vulture, scavenging the remnants of the old world while managing health, hunger, and thirst. The game blends open-world surface exploration with auto-generated underground bunkers, and includes a day-night cycle, radiation-contaminated water, and other environmental hazards.
Early Access launches on Steam on September 5 (September 4 local time). The launch includes ACT 1 of a planned three-act story, over 25 weapon types, more than 300 attachments, and 10 factions whose treatment of the player shifts based on reputation and choices. Ammunition is scarce, and weapons have durability that can cause jams or permanent failure. Japanese language support is planned, with the Japanese release following on September 5.
The Early Access period is slated for 12 to 24 months. Future plans include Acts II and III, new regions, creatures, factions, weapons, and a co-op multiplayer mode. In late August, NoShadow announced that Scavland had surpassed 100,000 wishlists on Steam, a milestone reached two weeks before the Early Access launch. The development process spanned six years with a 15-person team, with influences from S.T.A.L.K.E.R. and Escape from Tarkov.
