Renowned indie game developer and publisher, Drago Entertainment, recently unveiled its upcoming title, Winter Survival, marking February 2024 as the game's highly anticipated release date. Set amidst the chilling backdrop of the New Hampshire wilderness, Winter Survival promises to thrust players into a world where the biting cold is the least of their worries.
Plunged into the icy realms of Mount Washington, the game introduces players to a solitary survivor left in the aftermath of an unforeseen catastrophe. But as the frost takes hold, so do the mind's tricks, leading players to grapple not only with nature's extremities but also their haunting hallucinations. Compounding these challenges is a lurking danger – a constantly hungry bear, ever ready to pounce on its next prey.
In a test of true mettle and resourcefulness, players are tasked with searching the wild expanses for sustenance and essential resources. Forgotten blueprints, remnants of those who once braved these terrains, offer salvation in the form of guides to craft essential tools and protective gear. With the threat of apex predators, shadowy figures, and the formidable bear ever-looming, these tools become a lifeline for survival.
