The Dead Await Coming To PC April 15th

The Dead Await developed by Shotx and published by Freedom Games is releasing April 15th 2024 via Steam!

In the aftermath of a catastrophic zombie apocalypse, the world lies in ruins, and humanity is thrust into an era of chaos and despair. Players will run into danger around every corner as hope becomes a scarce commodity. As the leader of a resident caravan of survivalists, players will have to lead them on a treacherous journey through the remnants of civilization, navigating through hordes of the undead and confronting other human survivors with unpredictable natures.

The Dead Await blends deck-building mechanics with open-world exploration, players will have to make strategic decisions in this narrative-driven game so that their group of survivors can thrive in the modern wastelands. You’ll also have to scavenge resources, recruit survivors, manage their team’s sanity, and construct a caravan stronghold, fortifying it against both the ravenous zombie hordes and the unpredictable actions of rival human factions. 

Players will need to build their team and survive using sophisticated card-based combat. As they journey, they will have the opportunity to build up their deck, assembling a team that ranges from rag-tag survivors to seasoned veterans, each with incredibly rare cards at their disposal. They must strategize wisely to overcome challenges and outmanoeuvre threats in this unforgiving landscape.
   
The world is a haunting wasteland, rife with darkened ruins, desolate landscapes, and lurking dangers. As players venture forth, they encounter diverse environments, each presenting unique challenges and opportunities. From abandoned cities to new settlements, every location holds valuable resources, hidden secrets, and perilous encounters.

The Dead Awaits looks really good so far and if you know me you know how much I love zombie apocalypse games, it will be interesting to see how this turns out. If you also love zombie games as much as me, perhaps you’d also like to read our review of The Walking Dead Saints and Sinners 2! HERE
