Survival News

• The demo for Last Whisper Survival will be available in October.
  (Steam News)

• Rooted will launch the NDA-locked Alpha on September 4th. I would tell you all about it, except, you know.

• Head to the beta branch for The Infected and check out the new biomes! This content patch is expected to hit the live branch sometime next week, but a long weekend is the perfect time to check out new content.
  (Steam News)

• It's time for your ears to relax with the Green Hell soundtrack.
  (Steam News)

• DayZ dropped a small content patch. Some tweaks, updates, screwed around with new bags/backpacks (which is kinda useless since most of us have solved/adjusted that issue via mods), and melee combat adjustments. Peering at the post comments seems like the update broke the game- business as usual.
  (Steam News)

• I didn’t realize Outbreak Island had dropped a trailer for Gamescom. Penalty of doing errands and grocery shopping during the livestream.
  (YouTube)

• Hmm! I appreciate that Sunkenland released a roadmap…list. I hope they double back and clean it up a bit- maybe group things up into content patches and include a little more of a timetable, however vague.

• UnReal World is doing some neat stuff with fishing.
  (Steam News)

• A picture-heavy post detailing the building mechanics in Winter Survival.
  (Steam News)

• Props to the developer of Survivalist: Invisible Strain, I like the ‘Hit the Road’ mechanic, neat way to prolong the game!
  (Steam News)

• The developer for RTE Worlds will be holding a livestream in their Discord to showcase the current state of the game and answer community questions! September 3rd at 8 pm GMT.
  (Discord)

• A chonky Icarus content patch! Adding wind turbines is all well and good- can we agree that this horse, or whatever, is adorable?
  Not in game yet - soon!
