About This Game

"He sees himself at a witches' sabbath, among monsters, sorcerers, and the dead…"

The world is dying. The hard part is living through it.

Character Customization – Create your survivor and immerse yourself in a story that is truly your own.

Open-World Exploration – Explore an infected-overrun Tokyo, entering homes, stores, police stations, and many other buildings. Every place with its own story, its own secrets.

Explore, Fight & Survive – Search for supplies, manage your inventory, and fight the infected with melee and ranged combat: blunt and bladed melee weapons, Pistols and Assault Rifles. Go out alone, or with your group members.

Simple Crafting – Scavenge, combine, survive.

Story-Driven Gameplay – Immerse yourself in the world, explore personal stories, interact with a charming cast and shape how your group sees you.

Who will survive?

Illustrated Storytelling – Experience the story through drawn cinematic event CGs, expressive character portraits, and immersive text-driven sequences.

Expect richly written dialogue, introspective narration, and slow-burn character development woven into the day-to-day of the end of the world.

Leveling & Progression – The dead grow stronger each day. So must you.

Your survivor grows by taking risks—killing infected, scavenging, and staying on the move. Every day that passes makes the infected tougher, forcing you to adapt or die. Damage multipliers increase as you level, but the infected grow more resilient with time. There's no safety in standing still; it will only get you overwhelmed. Push forward, burn through ammo, and fight to stay one step ahead. In S.O.T.D, the world doesn’t wait for you.

It consumes the unprepared.
