In Fear the Night, you are a lone survivor in a world plagued with zombies. The remnants of humanity must fight to survive the zombie onslaught in this sandbox survival horror. Team up with other survivors and work together to rebuild society from its ashes or choose to trust no one and go your own way in a lawless world.

With humanity on the brink of extinction, players in Fear the Night will spend their daylight hours scavenging for the weapons, shelter, and gear needed to survive once darkness falls and the world is overrun with the undead. Survival will depend on building and fortifying safe havens throughout the land, with the most precious loot going only to those brave enough to venture into the darkness.

In addition to battling zombie hordes, players will also face autonomous robots that were meant to protect humanity by the United Army, but have since failed and gone rogue. If players are able to hack the robots and access their activation codes, the once dangerous robots will make valuable allies. Fear the Night also features a 24-hour online system, with characters remaining in the world even if players are offline.

“Fear the Night is an unparalleled apocalyptic game that allows players to test their scavenging and fortification skills during the day, and battle the undead well into the night as the lone survivor and humanity’s last hope during a zombie apocalypse,” said Tianqi Wu, Vice President of Snail Games. “We can’t wait for MMO gamers to experience this thrilling persistent online world where anything can happen.”

Key Features:

• Day-Night Cycle: Scavenge as many resources as you can during daytime to prepare for nightfall, when zombies become more aggressive and perceptive. Take shelter and avoid being caught out in the open when it gets dark.
• Reclaim Occupied Facilities, Destroy Zombie Caves, and Restore Order: Many facilities from before the apocalypse remain in good working order, and must be reoccupied to access unique resources. A vast network of caves also exists, and strategically sealing them off from zombies can ensure that an occupied territory is a safer place to carve out a living.
• Zombie Awareness: Zombies target their prey in a variety of ways. Beyond mere sight they also use advanced hearing and smell to help them find you when you’re hiding. To survive, you will need to know how to remain undetected.
• Hack Robot Companions: Before humanity was nearly wiped out, they developed autonomous robotic defenses to combat the threat of the undead. They continue to carry out their job, except they are exterminating zombie and survivor alike. Find out how to hack into their systems, and they will aid you in survival. Mostly by not killing you.
• Survival: Scavenge and hunt to keep yourself fed, and craft medicine to stave off the ever-present infection.

Fear the Night is available now on Steam Early Access for $11.24.
