'Smalland' (ALL) Reveals New Game Details - Screens & Trailer

Smalland: Survive The Wilds is an open-world survival game that challenges players to survive as one of a race of tiny people in a vast, hazardous world.

What a beautiful garden, the sunbeams dapple as they reflect off the pond, the grass sways gently, a few insects buzz gently around the bushes. Zoom in. No, zoom in more. Just a little more. Until the trees become skyscrapers and even blades of grass tower over you, flowers become explosions of colour and a pond becomes a sea. The sight alone, is breath-taking. And then there’s the noise, it’s full of noise down here, a squadron of wasps zoom overhead, their buzzing drowning out the swish of the wind and the sing-song chatter of the birds.

Suddenly, this place is no Eden. Danger lurks behind every corner, insects the size of double decker buses, venomous dragonfly and dinosaur sized rodents after a morsel of meat. And that’s before the weather takes its toll. Raindrops that smash into the ground around you like grenades, winds that can whip you into the air and deadly hailstones dropping like a meteor shower from a disaster movie.

Drop into this minute adventure and make the world your own. Ride a wasp through a field of wheat, climb a colossal tree to the top of the world, run from a pack of vicious rats intent on you becoming their latest prey. Experience an action adventure in your back yard.

Featuring dynamic, ever-changing environments where creatures react to each other as well as the world around them, Smalland sees players emerge into a giant overgrown world where they’re shrunk down to the size of a pebble. Changing weather, rotating seasons, and a full day/night cycle all add unique challenges and are another massive feature of Smalland, as players explore across an expansive open world environment.

Welcome to Smalland.

 


Since Merge took over development of the title in 2019, we are ecstatic to reveal some new information on what to expect from the massive adventure with a brand-new video. Diving into combat, crafting, building, and customisation, Merge reveals brand new gameplay and details of the epic landscapes you will be able to explore.

In the video, Kev also dives into customisation detailing some of the ways players can adjust their character and skills to be uniquely them, and align themselves with new creatures to gain abilities -- which can protect them, or move them up the food chain!

Key Features:

  • Build, craft, research, upgrade, fortify and fight to survive in a living breathing multiplayer open world game
  • Team-up with other players in PVE including cooperative Events that threaten the balance of Smalland, as well as take part in PVP focused gameplay.
  • Customise and style your armour, weapons, and tools, prepare and manage your loadouts and abilities 
  • Dynamic day, night and Seasons which affect resources, creatures, and your rate of survival 
  • Ally yourself with the creatures of Smalland, gain special resources for crafting as well as access to allies and mounts
  • Take charge of indigenous insects and mammals and ride them across the land or take to the skies by riding birds
  • Build shelters and structures to help hide and protect you which allow you to craft your resources

Smalland is coming to consoles and PC (Steam) in 2021.
