Another one to watch is ARK 2 starring Vin Diesel, Stalker 2: Heart Of Chornobyl, and Frostpunk 2. First up is Nightingale, an open-world survival 'em up where you'll build decks that'll warp you to different realms filled with friendlies and foes.
It's also worth keeping in mind the slew of upcoming survival games due out this year, as there's a fair few with great potential. It's by no means exhaustive, but it should give you a nice selection of wolf-taming, base-building, carrot-picking action to choose from. We've only included the very best and most complete-feeling survival games on this list, though, so you can rest assured that every game here will leave you hungry for more. Give them the time they deserve, though, and you'll find they often blossom into some truly great games over subsequent updates. Fair warning - there are some early access games on this list, which mean they might be a little janky early on. There are more arriving every year, too, which is why we've done the hard work for you and ranked the very best survival games to dive into today.
There's never been a better time to get into survival games on PC, as the recent revival of the genre means Steam is now awash in some truly great games, both in early access and in full release.
