Welcome to The Long Dark —an immersive survival simulation set in the aftermath of a geomagnetic disaster. Experience a unique first-person survival simulation that will force you to think and push you to your limits with its thought-provoking gameplay.
The first two episodes of The Long Dark‘s Wintermute will release on Tuesday, August 1. The remaining three episodes will be out sometime later this year and early 2018.
