God Save Birmingham shows a more inquisitive side with PAX build video

Keeping a respectable distance from some of the more peckish locals is the order of the day here

El Segundo, California – May 07, 2025 | After the necessarily brief tour of Roger De Moul’s house and a daring escape across a makeshift scaffold in God Save Birmingham’s first gameplay outing, the PAX build offers quite a bit more fresh air and exercise.

Still in pre-alpha, this gameplay video leans more into the foraging and barricading necessary to navigate your way around mediaeval Birmingham. Armed with nothing but a pitchfork and your wits, it’s representative of a more inexperienced main protagonist and his early battle for survival in an unforgiving environment.

Prior to their participation in PAX East with a hands-on demo, Ocean Drive Studio has released this unedited gameplay trailer. The trailer showcases up-to-date gameplay of the pre-alpha build which includes already developed and optimized gameplay features and content.

Ocean Drive Studio is planning to share their development progress regularly which will show the progress towards the earlier gameplay reveal trailer.

Players can wishlist God Save Birmingham on Steam today!
