The Steam Game Festival: Autumn Edition is here and UNDYING is back with our biggest Demo yet. With hours of play and heaps of replay value. Download the Demo now and join us with our biggest ‘UNDYING’ event ever!!!

We’ve taken in considerable feedback over the last few months that has helped us highlight
areas to improve such as world balancing, story progression, that Zombies can be too OP.

All that matters because…

Undying is a deeply emotional survival story about Anling and her son Cody who are
trying to cope in a world that is crashing down around them.

Between trying to survive, Anling is trying to teach Cody everything she can...as
her days are numbered and it’s up to you to make a difference!

Be sure to join us on our ‘An Undying Livestream Special Event as Vanimals creates
a ‘Game within a Game’ with a Guest appearance by David Brevik’.

This Special Livestream will take place on October 10th @ 5 PM PDT via our Steam page,
YouTube, and Twitch Channels!

Get more details for the event here:

Be sure to check out the demo, join us in the live stream, and above all else, let
us know what you think!

We are excited to announce that we are holding another Closed Alpha for UNDYING. This time the Alpha includes even more content than the last, and we will be also opening it up to even more people!

Earlier this year in May we ran our first ever Closed Alpha and it was a tremendous success. The feedback we received was so invaluable and our game is so much better because of it. And because it was so successful we've decided to go another round.

You can get details of the kind of changes we've made due to player feedback from our previous Alpha by watching our most recent livestream:

Join the Official UNDYING Discord server to get in on the ground floor as we build the game and leave your mark on the final product! Join our Discord here: https://discord.gg/playundying

You've been infected by a zombie bite, your time is running out but your son must live on! In this demo, take control of Anling the mother of Cody and experience the first 4 days of Undying. Gather, craft and fight in this zombie infested world while also teaching your son his own set of survival skills. Is there enough time to teach your son everything? How does the infection affect your humanity? Is there somewhere safe?

Get an early taste by playing the Undying Demo during the Steam Game Festival, Summer Edition!

Meet Kun Wang (Vanimals founder, Project lead) and Jin Chan Yum Wai (Creative Director) as they talk about all things UNDYING, from original conceptualization of the project, development, all the way to discussing the recent Closed Alpha. They will also be showing off never seen before behind the scenes work.

They will also be taking some time to answer questions during the stream. So make sure to bring your questions.

To give you a primer before the stream starts watch the previous Q&A video the developers did for the Closed Alpha testers last month:

UNDYING will have a playable demo for the Steam Game Festival - Summer Edition 2020 6.16.20 - 6.22.20!

This will be the first time that UNDYING will be playable to the public outside large gameshows such as E3 and Gamescom. We are very excited for you to get your hands on the game and experience the beginning of Anling and Cody's story.

The demo will include the first 4 in-game days of UNDYING, which will add up to roughly 45 minutes of gameplay. Within those in-game days players are free to experience the game however they choose. Rush through it and experience as much as possible or just take your time and take everything in, it's up to you!

Also for the Steam Game Festival we will be launching the Official UNDYING Discord server! Join the community on the ground level, chat about the game and have fun! We love hearing from you whether it's feedback, suggestions, hearing your expectations all if it helps us make the best game possible. Make sure you Join or Discord here: https://discord.gg/BM6JHE7


* Notice: we changed the dates according to the delay of Steam's Summer Game Festival.

The Vanimals Team

2019 was a huge year for us at Vanimals. This was the year that we revealed or next project to the world of Undying. We would like to take this opportunity to recap some the highlights of this year as well as what to expect in 2020.




If you had told us last year that we would be unveiling our new game at E3 this year we wouldn’t have believed you, but that’s exactly what happened! Not only that, the reveal was dropped during the E3 Kinda Funny Games Showcase. It was so great to be featured beside so many wonderful Indies and we have to thank Greg Miller and the Kinda Funny team for letting us be a part of the show.

The E3 show floor was also such a wonderful and surreal experience for us, not only because we were featured right next to the Monster Hunter World: Iceborne booth but also because this was the first-time people would get hands on our game. The reception was amazing, and we also got great feedback. It was great to hear firsthand what clicked with people and what might need more work.

E3 was a blast and we hope to make it back there again one day!




After barely recovering from E3 we were off to Cologne for Gamescom. Easily the biggest games convention we have ever experienced. So many more people got a chance to get hands on the game and again it was wonderful to get so much feedback and hearing how many people were excited about Undying.

Gamescom also gave us the chance for us to meet really interesting people within the industry, some who might have an impact on Undying in the future.




When we unveiled Undying at E3 we were able to say that it was being developed for PC and console. At all the shows we attended the most common questions that were being asked were “What consoles is this coming to?” and “Is it coming to…?”. It took us a little while, but in 2019 we are happy to confirm that Undying will be coming to PS4 and Nintendo Switch! We hope to add more platforms to the list in the future!


We managed to achieve a lot in 2019 (in front and behind the scenes) but what can we expect from Undying in 2020? The big one for us is getting the game in to your hands. Though that will lean towards the later part of the year, we are planning for opportunities for you to get some hands on before that through a closed beta and other opportunities. We’ll keep you updated.

We do plan to bring Undying to more shows next year as well and we’ll begin sharing news on that soon as we are able to confirm which events we will be going to.

2019 was a jam packed year for us but undoubtedly 2020 will be even bigger as we work hard to bring Undying to your PCs and Consoles. So we hope are looking forward to it!


We at Vanimals want to say a big thank you to you. We had an incredible year and it’s all thanks to your excitement. We really want to bring you the best game we can and knowing that there are people eager to play it really motivates us and we hope not to let you down.

So from all of us at Vanimals…

Happy Holidays! We’ll see you in 2020!
