Informational

By UW Reviews (English) October 9

“Jurassic Outlast Trials turned out to be `neither fish nor dinosaur`. It's early access, the price is reasonable, and the animations are good, but there's absolutely nothing to do in the game yet”

Early Access Game

Get instant access and start playing; get involved with this game as it develops.

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“We want to build the game with the wider Steam community, since developing alongside our Kickstarter backers over the past years. We know how important feedback is to improving the game and we’re dedicated to evolving it into the best experience possible. There are many more features and content we want to add to define the full release version.
Your feedback will be essential in guiding the expansion of new features, dinosaurs and maps as well as refining the balancing difficulty and overall horror experience.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Around 8 to 12 months but we'll continue development until the community believes it's reached the desired quality and depth for the full release.”

How is the full version planned to differ from the Early Access version?

“The full release is planned to expand significantly on content, polish and optimisation. You can expect more dinosaur types, animations, maps, missions and environments, new items and gameplay mechanics. As well as improvements to the artwork, animations, music and performance. The vision is to create the definitive co-op dinosaur horror experience, rich in content and replay value.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“It includes both solo and online co-op play (up to 4 players), 3 distinct multiplayer maps, 1 single player mission, 1 training map, 6 playable characters, 4 loadouts, 2 AI enemy dinosaur species, and 6 featured dinosaur species.
It’s already shaping up into a tense, atmospheric survival experience but it’s also still in active development. There will be bugs, rough edges, and constant updates.
Early Access is just the beginning — we’ll be building this game alongside you and have already added several fantastic suggestions and ideas from our wonderful community.”

Will the game be priced differently during and after Early Access?

“Early Access players will benefit from a lower price and receive all updates and new content at no additional cost.
We plan to gradually raise the price once significant content and features have been added throughout Early Access, with another increase at the 1.0 release. We'll always give players advance notice before any price changes.”

How are you planning on involving the Community in your development process?

“We value all community feedback and this will directly help to shape the future of Deathground. We actively monitor feedback and comments across Steam, Discord and social platforms. Expect regular devlogs and updates, open communication and a development roadmap inspired by our players.”

About This Game

Enter the Deathground, a terrifying survival horror experience where you’re hunted by reactive, relentless dinosaurs.

Whether you prefer to play solo or in a team of up to 4 players, your survival instincts will be put to the test and teamwork, stealth and strategy are key to getting out alive.

Choose your tools, complete mission objectives and successfully extract whilst navigating the once-secure prehistoric-research compound, now overrun by deadly predators with a taste for blood.

KEY FEATURES

Face off against relentless predators that hunt using sight, hearing and movement, forcing you to adapt your strategy in real time.

Players drop into each map to complete high-risk objectives, recover lore documents and fight to escape alive.

Each run offers procedurally-generated elements, dynamic objectives and reactive enemies that keep you on edge.

Use stealth, combat, teamwork and a range of specialist tools to adapt, outsmart your predators, and make it to extraction.

Coordinate with up to 3 other players and manage specialist items, namely the Motion Detector, Tranquilizer Rifle, Hacking Device or Field-Medkit, each offering tactical advantages.

With deadly threats lurking in every shadow, teamwork and cooperation can mean the difference between extraction and extinction.

Leave your teammates behind for a more isolating horror experience.

Enter at your own risk - with no one to rely on, your wits and tools are your only lifeline.

Switch between feathered and non-feathered dinosaurs to suit your own visual preference. Players can also mix and match styles in the same session - from a modern look to classic, scaly reptilian designs.

Explore a range of abandoned and decaying research facilities, deep within the AEON compound, each with its own unique theme, challenges and hazards. Can you navigate these anxious environments whilst your survival instincts are challenged at every corner?
