Scavenger Survivors Playtest — This Weekend, Aug 28–30

START. YOUR. ENGINES.

We've been waiting to share this with you. Our first public playtest for Scavenger Survivors opens Friday, August 28 at 17:00 CEST and closes Sunday, August 30 at 17:00 CEST.

Access is FREE. Hit "Request Access" on the store page — we'll approve everyone in the queue, and Steam drops the build straight into your library.

WHAT IS THIS GAME?

You and up to three friends share one armored vehicle in a desolate world, overrun by hungry bots. Somebody drives. Somebody shoots. Somebody runs out into the open and grabs the thing you came for before the swarm closes in.

There are never enough of you, the horde gets bigger every minute you stay, and the truck you limp home in is the only thing keeping you alive.

If you make it out.

  • The truck is your lifeline - Transport, gun platform, health bar and the only way out. Lose it, lose the run.

  • You're stuck together. Literally - Everyone is roped to the truck. Hit the end of the rope and see what happens.

  • Rags to riches - Every level-up deals you a hand of upgrades. Flamethrowers, miniguns, rocket pods, saw launchers, you name it. Play your cards right and you drive home a powerhouse.

  • Combined effort - Each player has a role to fill. Moving the vehicle, manning the guns and pulling your weight are a group effort.

  • Runs feed the next run - Brains banked in the field buy permanent upgrades and blueprints at the safe house.

HOW TO PLAY WITH FRIENDS

Co-op is local — up to 4 players on one PC, gamepads and one keyboard.

Use Steam Remote Play Together: host launches, invites from the Steam overlay, their controllers act as local devices. They don't even need to own the playtest.

WHAT YOU CAN HELP WITH

  • Does the driving feel right — the weight, the drift, the nitro?

  • Which cards did you fight over, and which did you never pick?

  • Anything that made the whole table laugh. We want more of that.

💬 Let us know everything in the Discussions, Discord, or feedback form.

⭐ Add the game to your Wishlist. Every click helps us more than you can imagine.

We'll be here live all weekend.

See you in the wasteland on Friday, Scavengers.
