About the Game

The moon shattered — and the world froze. Civilization lies buried beneath years of ice. Now it’s your turn to rise from the snow, scavenge what’s left and forge your life in the cold. Get ready to survive in a beautiful but brutal open-world survival game set on a frozen post-apocalyptic Earth, where every step could be your last.

Survive the cataclysm that froze Earth. Explore a vast open-world buried in ice and battle extreme weather, hunger and exhaustion in a world where the cold itself is your deadliest enemy. Hunt scarce wildlife, set traps, and scavenge every resource to stay alive.

Gather scarce resources, craft vital tools and build shelters or massive bases to withstand blizzards and the relentless cold that devours the world.

Play solo or in online co-op (with up to 4 survivors) to explore a vast open-world survival landscape. Discover, orientate and survive together, forging bonds that can outlast the storm.

Step beyond the last safe walls - into the unforgiving white hell. Follow the faint signal of a friend long thought lost, through ice, storm and silence. Out there in the endless cold lies more than survival - it’s where the last connection to what you’ve lost still waits.

Venture into frozen territories that will push your endurance and survival skills to the limit. Explore cold zones, uncover valuable resources as well as rare loot and restore abandoned structures.

A rescued dog becomes your partner and early-warning system. With sharp senses and unwavering loyalty, your canine companion helps detect danger and carries part of your load and sniffs for loot.

Traverse abandoned cities, buried forests, caves or camps filled with secrets and salvage. By accessing lost technology you will understand the circumstances and uncover the mysteries of this world.

Encounter survivors, raiders and rival factions struggling to survive the frozen apocalypse. Trade or fight for resources, territory, and the last remnants of civilization.

Review Note:

Play the game with DLSS enabled from the bottle option because you will get better performance from DLSS than FSR. DLSS on Ultra Quality on Medium around 60-70 fps and FSR on Quality is around 40.
