About This Game

"Exploring the world is wonderful. There are moments of pure wonder and true terror." - UploadVR

Neolithic Dawn is an open world VR survival game set in 10,000 BC North America. Play as a lineage of Stone Age hunter-gatherers fighting to survive a world of mammoths, sabertooths, dire wolves, and harsh seasons across five large maps based on real-world locations in the Great Lakes region.

🐺 Tame Any Creature

Every animal in the world can become your ally. Feed a dire wolf to earn its loyalty. Befriend a mammoth to haul resources and intimidate predators. Choose whether to hunt or tame every creature you encounter.

🪓 Physics-Based VR Crafting

Craft tools and weapons with your own hands using real VR interactions. Combine sticks, rocks, and bones to create axes, spears, and more. Every tool you build feels handmade because it is.

💀 Generational Permadeath

When you die, your journey continues through your descendants. Return 20 years later as the next member of your bloodline to a world permanently changed by time and your past actions. Your legacy carries forward across generations.

🌎 A Living Prehistoric World

Explore five large open world maps, each with unique dungeons, wildlife, and campsites. Experience a real-time day-night cycle and dynamic seasons that change how you survive. Winter brings deadly cold. Spring brings new life. Every season demands a different strategy.

A small amount of AI was used as a starting point for minor placeholder elements, such as backgrounds, UI graphics, and icons. This was done to speed up the development process and allow our small team to focus on other more important aspects of the game. Most of these are in the process of being replaced as we make changes to the menus leading up to full launch.
