This time, we’re excited for you to experience the improved Act I and Act II, plus—for the very first time—the brand new Act III!
Whether you’re revisiting the winter wilds or stepping in for the first time, you’ll get to:
- Explore and survive through all three acts, each with unique challenges and surprises.
- Test out new mechanics, big and small, introduced since the last playtest.
- Experience rebalanced, polished, and improved systems that make survival even more intense (and rewarding!)
- Help us stress-test the latest content and provide feedback that will shape the final game.
Your experience and feedback in this playtest are more important than ever. We’re counting on your insight to help push Winter Survival to the next level!
Play at your own pace—there are no time limits within the test window.
