Bushcraft Simulator, a new survival game with roguelike elements, is heading to PC, PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S and Nintendo Switch 2. The player will find himself in a wild forest, where he will have to demonstrate his bushcraft and survival skills. Bushcraft Simulator is expected to be distinguished by realism and varied and well-balanced gameplay. The simulator harks back to games like Green Hell and The Forest, but at the same time is expected to provide a number of its own solutions and mechanics. The release date will be revealed at a later date.

Polish studio A2 Softworks (e.g. Gatewalkers and Climber: Sky is the Limit) is working on Bushcraft Simulator. The publisher will be Ultimate Games S.A., which is known for, among other things, the well-reviewed Ultimate Fishing Simulator series and the best-selling Thief Simulator 2.

Roguelike survival in the wild forest

Bushcraft Simulator is a realistic simulation game with roguelike and survivalist elements, in which the player fights for survival on an island cut off from the world and overgrown by wild forest. The player must survive as long as possible in a hostile environment with only limited resources at his disposal.

The idea of the game refers to the art of survival and coping with wildlife. The gameplay will focus on survival, but it will not lack gathering, crafting, exploration and combat. The issue of taking care of the basic needs of the character, i.e. health, eating, hydration and warmth, among others, will play a very important role.

Bushcraft Simulator with unique survival mechanics

As announced by the developers, Bushcraft Simulator is to be distinguished by its realistic approach to survivalism. Making water will require the player to obtain and process the right raw materials (e.g. charcoal, sand, etc.) and then apply them in the right order. When setting up a camp, the player will have to properly plan sleeping areas, shelters and campfires to ensure comfort and safe survival of the night. It is worth noting the mechanics in which the type of campfire affects the amount of heat generated and how long it burns.

Another important element is the exploration of the wild forest, which will require the player to plan the equipment necessary for the next stages of the game. Skillful weight management and preparation of the right set of tools will be crucial and may determine survival. In the game, in addition to fighting wildlife, the player will encounter mysterious signs and structures.

“This is a game that should appeal to fans of bushcraft and survivalism. Certainly players who appreciate productions in the style of Green Hell, The Forest or Valheim will find something for themselves in Bushcraft Simulator. The game focuses on realistic aspects of survival, which can be found in vain in other productions with similar themes. The simulator will be distinguished by a thoughtful combination of realism and varied and intriguing gameplay,” says developer from A2 Softworks, Andrzej Stroiński.

The player will feel as if he is on a lonely expedition, where – relying only on himself and simple tools – he must obtain drinking water and food. Gathering, hunting and fishing are only a part of the skills that will come into play. Thoughtful construction of shelters, orientation in the field, making simple tools, lighting fires, tying knots, and working with wood and other materials will also play an important role.

Bushcraft Simulator – main features:

• the struggle for survival in the wild forest;
• collecting and crafting;
• shelter creation;
• exploration, combat and uncovering secrets;
• roguelike survival.

The game’s release date has not yet been set. Bushcraft Simulator is set to launch on PC first, followed by PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X|S, and Nintendo Switch 2.

Succeed as the dominant force in strategic battles against endless swarms of vermin

STOCKHOLM, SWEDEN – 21 Jan. 2025 – IDUN – Frontline Survival, the intense RTS defense game from the former chief visual effects director of the multi-million-selling Battlefield series, drops on PC via Steam today, courtesy of developer IDUN Interactive and publisher Surefire.Games.

Engage in a compellingly chaotic combination of RTS action and tactical tower defense to wipe out relentless alien swarms overwhelming the screen. Command a varied arsenal of combat tools in real-time, from repositionable drag-and-drop turrets to point-and-shoot orbital cannons, leveraging their strengths to overcome challenging scenarios.

Explore several diverse modes and complete fist-pumping missions, including defending the collection base, escorting nuclear vehicles, and protecting mining carts. Execute a strategic plan of defense by deploying destructive tanks, blade-spinning fans, flesh-melting turrets, and sturdy barriers to block vicious waves of extraterrestrial vermin.

Extract vital resources across multiple dynamic maps to unlock critical upgrades in an epic main campaign. Strengthen defenses through the advanced tech tree, enhancing turrets and troops for tougher battles, then enhance the home base to gain access to new units and tactics, increasing tactical options and creating new combinations for each battle.

“IDUN – Frontline Survival blends classic RTS elements with strategic tower defense gameplay to provide a fresh experience for both novice and battle-hardened commanders,” said Gustav Hagerling, former Battlefield serieschief VFX director and founder of IDUN Interactive. “Join the force and get ready to confront loads of foes today!”

“One of the elements our early testers have really enjoyed about IDUN is the ability to control and move units dynamically, rather than just placing static towers and letting them run automatically,” said Henry Zeng, Director, Surefire.Games. “We wanted to create a more hands-on experience that combines the best of tower defense and RTS elements, giving players more agency and strategic control over their defenses. We know this approach might not feel like a traditional tower defense game for everyone, but we hope its unique twist resonates with players looking for something fresh.”

IDUN – Frontline Survival is now available on PC via Steam for $14.99, with full English voice-over, and Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, French, German, Spanish, and Japanese language text localization.
