About This Demo

ABOUT THIS DEMO

YOUR FIRST 24 HOURS

This demo introduces you to the beginning of When the Day Comes.

You wake up in an unfamiliar house.

There is no electricity.

No communication.

Outside, the world is completely dark.

And something is moving nearby.

LEARN TO SURVIVE

The demo includes the game's introductory tutorial and the first chapter, covering one full in-game day.

Learn the fundamentals of survival:

  • Explore your surroundings

  • Search buildings for useful supplies

  • Gather food, water and basic resources

  • Craft essential items

  • Learn how light and electricity work

  • Establish your first shelter

  • Encounter the first dangers of the world

  • Survive your first 24 hours

The demo is designed as an introduction to the world and core systems of When the Day Comes.

The full game expands far beyond the events of this first day with multiplayer survival, settlement development, specialists, vehicles, advanced technology, PvP, large-scale exploration, research, procedural worlds and major world events.

This is only the first day.

The question is whether you'll live long enough to see another.
