Coming Soon To Early Access

The developers of this game intend to release as a work in progress, developing with the feedback of players.

Note: Games in Early Access are not complete and may or may not change further. If you are not excited to play this game in its current state, then you should wait to see if the game progresses further in development. Learn more

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early Access lets us share the game with the players while it’s still growing, so their feedback can directly shape missions, creatures, and features.
We want Species: Unknown to be the best possible experience for its 1.0 release and we want the players to be part of the journey.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“Our goal is about 12 months of Early Access before reaching version 1.0.
The exact timing will depend on feedback from the community and how much content we’re able to add along the way.”

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

“The full release will bring more of everything: more specimens with unique behaviors, more maps, more upgrades...
On top of that, expect overall polish, balancing, and quality-of-life improvements.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Right now the main features of the game are accessible:
- Play solo or co-op with up to 3 friends (public & private servers)
- Take on several contract types (recovery, destruction, capture, elimination)
- Face different creatures chosen procedurally with unique behaviors
- One playable map
- Upgrade gear and customise avatar”

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

“Yes. The game will be cheaper during Early Access. The price will increase once we add more content and release the full version.”

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

“Community feedback is key to Species: Unknown. We gather it on Discord, our social accounts, and here on Steam, because every idea, bug report, or story helps us improve the game and shape what’s next.”

This game is not yet available on Steam

About This Game

Species: Unknown is a first-person survival horror game, playable in online co-op with up to 4 players or solo (private or public server). You play as a mercenary sent aboard an abandoned spaceship. Your job? Execute high-risk contracts, make it out alive, and claim your reward. But keep in mind that you’re not alone. Something is hunting you…

TEAM UP.

Form a squad of up to 4 players to take on different contracts with escalating difficulty. Each mission plays differently depending on your objective, your teammates, the map and which of the 5 intelligent threats is stalking you. No one survives alone, but you can try.

EXECUTE.

Every contract drops you into a different nightmare. Whether you're tasked with extracting a black box, capturing or eliminating an unknown threat, or even destroying the ship to prevent the creature from escaping… Each mission demands a specific strategy and none of them are easy.

The specimen is chosen procedurally from a growing roster of terrifying monsters. Each one comes with distinct behaviors, hunting patterns, strengths, and weaknesses. You’ll need to investigate your surroundings to gather vital clues and identify the threat in order to proceed smoothly (or not). Do your job and get rewarded, or die without anyone knowing.

SURVIVE.

Strategize as a group, make smart use of your tools that can turn the tide, if only for a moment:

Motion Tracker : Detect nearby movement and prepare for what's coming

Shield : Block deadly attacks and buy time for your team

Health Syringe : Heal yourself or allies in the heat of battle

Mini-Map : Navigate pitch-black corridors with real-time positional data

Guns won’t always save you. Some threats are too resistant or simply untouchable. But the right weapon, found at the right time, can help you push through or even take the creature down.

REPEAT.

The higher the risk, the higher the reward. Completing contracts earns you credits you can use to:

Upgrade your gear
Buy new tools
Customize your appearance
Gather lore and build your own creature museum
