Permafrost is one of many games featured at the Future Games Show’s spring showcase. As the name indicates, players will have to survive an apocalyptic winter after the moon is blown to pieces. Survival games have been popular as of late, especially with Twitch streamers. The games are fun because players get to try and beat their own records and survive for as long as possible. At the showcase, gamers got a good look at the new game and an announcement that the demo is now live.

Developed by SpaceRocket Games, Permafrost drops you headfirst into a world of ice, fire, and survivalist strategy. The brief but chilling (yes, pun intended) trailer takes you on a tour of this frozen world. Players must navigate the world day and night, avoiding harsh weather and dangerous animals. One thing is for sure: this is a barren wasteland. Everything is covered in ice and snow, with the remnants of the former world scattered about. The developers did a great job of crafting the world.

Every game is better with a dog! In Permafrost, it’s you and your canine friend against the world. Whether you’re shelter-building, scavenging through what remains of civilization, or fending off snarling beasts with your bow and arrow, your four-legged friend acts as your emotional support buddy.

As with most survival games, crafting is a central part of the gameplay. Craft to survive or succumb to the bitter cold. It’s as simple as that in Permafrost. Engaging solo or teaming up with friends via multiplayer, each decision you make could mean life or death. Forge alliances to gather resources, build fortresses that can withstand the most aggressive snowstorm, and strategize every move to keep your party from becoming nature’s next casualty.

Try The Demo Now!

While the game’s full release is slated for 2025, you don’t have to wait that long to get a taste of this thrilling adventure. A demo is now live on Steam, allowing you to immerse yourself in the icy apocalypse with friends, even as the game continues to develop. Permafrost is not just another survival game. It challenges you to rethink every element of life when the moon, quite literally, crashes down on you. The developers have meticulously crafted this world to test your survival instincts and strategic thinking in ways you’ve never encountered before.

For those who thrive in the high-stakes genre of survival games, Permafrost presents an opportunity to showcase your skills, pushing you to your limits as you battle the biting chill of a world forever changed. Is your name on the list of the survival-willing? Wishlist Permafrost on Steam now and step into a world where every decision counts and every moment is an opportunity to defy adversity.
