Coming Soon To Early Access

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

What the developers have to say:

Why Early Access?

“Early Access allows me to actively develop DEADLIST with player feedback while completing the remaining chapters, systems, and content.

The current version represents the core vision of the game, but several major elements — including the full story, expanded environments, and deeper survival mechanics — are still in development. Early Access gives players the opportunity to experience the game early while directly influencing its balance, pacing, and horror elements.

I am committed to continuing development throughout Early Access, responding to feedback, fixing bugs, and delivering the complete planned experience.”

Approximately how long will this game be in Early Access?

“DEADLIST is planned to remain in Early Access for approximately 12–24 months, depending on community feedback, testing results, and feature development progress.”

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

“Additional endings and expanded story paths.
More paranormal encounters and hallucination types.
New forest areas.
Refined survival and sanity mechanics.”

What is the current state of the Early Access version?

“Working sanity, stamina, and flashlight battery systems.
Some paranormal encounters and hallucinations.
Early story content with a few voiced segments.
Core exploration and survival gameplay.”

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

“Yes. DEADLIST will be offered at a lower price during Early Access.
The price will increase upon full release to reflect the additional content, features, and overall polish added during development.”

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

“I’ll be gathering feedback through the Steam Community Hub, Discord, and direct player reports.
Players can suggest improvements, report bugs, and help shape the final balance of the game’s difficulty and horror pacing.”

About This Game

DEADLIST

DEADLIST is a psychological survival horror game where the forest watches you back.

You play as Thalarius, a paranormal investigator drawn into the cursed Black Forest — a place where reality fractures, voices whisper lies, and fear is a weapon.

What begins as an investigation quickly becomes a fight to survive an environment that twists perception, drains sanity, and punishes every mistake.

Explore the forest, manage scarce resources, and uncover the truth before fear and madness consume you.

This game is currently in Early Access. Content and features will continue to be expanded throughout development.
