What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early Access will give us more time and possibilities for improvement and gathering players’ feedback without keeping the game away from the community. Primal Survival Wars already has quite a lot of content, but there are still many things we want to add.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“According to our estimates, the game will leave early access in 2027”

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

“We plan to add various additions to the game:
New territories, new buildings, tools and weapons to further delve into the intricacies of survival.
The ability to manage a tribe will be expanded.
The research system will also be expanded.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Early Access has basic mechanics like resource gathering, building, crafting, hunting, combat, and exploration.”

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

“Yes. We’re thinking about increasing the price at full release as more content and features will be available.

Of course, those who purchased during Early Access will not be charged extra at full release.”

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

“Everybody is welcome to follow our progress, suggest new ideas and just chat with us and other players, for which we mainly use Discord, Twitter and Discussions on Steam.”

About This Game

Primal Survival Wars is an open-world survival game.

You lead a tribe of early humans through hunger and war, helping them survive, grow strong, and advance.

Start your journey in the Stone Age and bring your people all the way to the Bronze Age.

Become a wise leader

The tribe is counting on you. Go hunting, decide where to build, and make sure no one goes hungry.

Your tribe at work

Your people don't sit around waiting for orders. They gather resources, hunt, cook, and keep the fire going.

Develop technology

Hone your crafting skills, make discoveries, and explore new territories.

Expand and protect your settlement

Build huts, a storehouse, a workbench, and a campfire.

Neighboring tribes won't leave you in peace. Raise fortifications and arm yourself well so enemies can't catch you off guard.

Hunting and fishing

Spear or bow, your call. Deer, boars, wolves, and bears roam the forests, and a mammoth won't go down without a fight. Set traps for animals and fish the river.

Farming and taming

Dig garden beds, plant potatoes, and wait for the harvest. Tame wild animals, and loyal helpers will provide your tribe with food and resources.

Roast meat over the fire, but don't leave it too long or it will burn.

Will you survive the harsh winter?

Stock up on food and firewood before the snow falls. In the bitter cold, you won't last long without a fire.

Resources and tools

Wood, stone, ore, animal skins, bones, reeds, and much more. Chop down trees, break rocks, and haul it all back to camp. The tribe is always running short of something.

Craft axes, picks, knives, hammers, hoes, spears, bows and arrows: everything you need for hunting, building, and defense.

Additional details

The game features a variety of environments: dense forests, meadows, rivers, and lakes.

Choose from several tribes, each with its own strengths and weaknesses.

A deep research system unlocks new technologies and abilities.
