Game news 9 promising survival games to be released in 2022

Dysterra

Dysterra is a multiplayer survival game set in a post-apocalyptic futuristic world. The gameplay is divided into four phases: gathering resources, resorting to crafts, building bases and of course fighting. Reality MagiQ Studio promises extensive PvP clashes as well as tough boss raids. To spice it up, it will also be necessary to watch out for natural disasters. They disrupt the game and can sometimes turn the tide of an initially lost battle.

Hidden depth

Hidden depth is a 2D survival game that cheerfully flirts with horror. In order to offer the most excruciating experience possible, the developers were also inspired by the classics of horror science fiction. We think of films like Alien and The Thing. Getting back to our topic, the game literally “plunges” you into the depths of the ocean. You are part of a team tasked with exploring a seemingly empty underwater mining complex. In truth, the latter is invaded by hideous bloodthirsty creatures. However, if you’d rather brave the horrors of Hidden Deep together, you can do so, but only in Challenge Mode.

STALKER 2: The heart of Chernobyl

STALKER 2: The heart of Chernobyl is the fourth part of the franchise launched in 2007. This licensing revival, also exclusive to Microsoft, is certainly one of the most anticipated games of 2022. Such an expectation is not surprising given the popularity of old GSC Game World titles. Its inspired post-apocalyptic universe has generated a real buzz since the first episode was released. A universe also reminiscent of that of another popular license, Metro. It’s primarily a book adaptation, but let’s not forget that 4A Games, the creators of the license, was originally part of the development team for the first STALKER. was

Little devil in there

5 years ago a studio called Neostream started the project Little devil in there. The release date was finally announced last October. This action-adventure game promises an unforgettable experience. His unique artistic direction was the first thing that struck players who were later drawn to his ingenious formula, which was more role-playing than the art of survival. A colorful world awaits you juggling the real and the fantastic, but be careful, because even in such an environment the danger is never far.

nightingale

nightingale is of course another survival game developed by veterans of Bioware (Mass Effect, Dragon Age) in this case. This relationship was enough to arouse particular interest among the players. The focus is on the classic codes of the genre: exploration of a huge world, construction, craft and battles against imposing monsters. In the artistic direction of the title, the studio opted for an original mix of fantasy and Victorian styles. The title of Inflection Games can be triumphed alone or with others, although finding allies to survive is highly recommended.

pioneer

Before we mentioned the cult license STALKER. Their unique universe has not failed to inspire many developers and influence their own creations. This is the case with GFA Games Studio pioneer. The action takes place on an island that has become the scene of strange events. So you have to travel there alone or in cooperation, collect materials, build your base and complete various missions. In short, you have to survive and thrive. In addition to the cooperative mode, the game also offers online multiplayer, which is highly recommended for overcoming certain challenges.

Sons of the forest

Sons of the forest is the sequel to the famous The Forest, which was released in 2014. Back then, players rushed to this new production, a symbol of an innovative survival game. It was a success, and the final version released in 2018 was a nice way to end this adventure. The next year the formula gets a new life and brings its share of changes with it. Among other things, players now have access to a host of new weapons and tools designed for survival. More classic elements will of course come back, such as the famous forest dwellers who do not welcome your presence in their territory.

The day before

If you’re tempted by a concept that blends open world MMO and a universe inspired by The Last of Us, this is the place to go The day before. The goal is simple. Adventurers are invited to survive and develop in a pandemic-torn America. So, like a division, you’ll need to collect resources, build colonies, and keep an eye out for the living dead roaming the map. As with so many stories in this genre, however, zombies are nowhere near the only threat. Therefore, beware of other players and the alliances you are about to form.

Unexplored 2: The Wanderer’s Legacy

We end up with a game that is very different from the ones in this selection. Unexplored 2: The Wanderer’s Legacy is a top view action RPG that incorporates mechanics from another genre … the rogue-like. This implies in particular a procedural generation of the terrain and the dungeons, but above all a permanent death for each of your characters. However, as with Rogue Legacy, you can use an inheritance system to restore some of your progress. The full version will be released in 2022, but you can already try your luck with Early Access on the Epic Games Store.
