![]() It’s a fairly straightforward survival game on Xbox Game Pass made better by the overabundance of the very things we marveled over as children.ĭeveloper: System Era Softworks Publisher: System Era SoftworksĪstroneer doesn’t tether itself to the staples of the survival genre. Together, you can dominate this prehistoric world and even tame the mightiest of beasts.Īrk will test your resolve as you battle against rows of teeth, accumulate resources, and try to build that forever home you’ve always wanted. The difficulty curve on Ark can be a little punishing, so it’s best to try and tackle it with friends at your side. Ark: Survival Evolved allows you to relive this situation over and over again as you struggle to just barely erect a one-room shelter made of twigs.ĭinosaurs are fascinating, but in Ark, they’re an absolute menace as they stalk you as you just try to knock down trees and build shelter. Until you remember that they have teeth and would likely eat you in a heartbeat. The idea of sharing the same land as prehistoric beasts like the tyrannosaurus and velociraptor sounds like an incredible experience. Ark: Survival Evolved Ark Survival Evolvedĭeveloper: Studio Wildcard Publisher: Studio Wildcard It’s bloody, filled with monsters, and there’s nudity – what more could you want? You know, besides all the survival mechanics like building, resource gathering, and exploration.Ĩ. Exiles is a pretty standard survival game, though rather than just try to survive, you’re trying to build a kingdom of your own. That is, if one of the many things trying to kill you doesn’t succeed. However, the world holds the keys to improving your situation and rising the ranks to become an icon like Conan himself. Like your typical survival game, you wake up in Exiles with nothing to your name. You’re merely in his universe, doing what you must to survive against perils that Conan could probably make much quicker work of. Which is partly why it’s a shame Conan Exiles doesn’t let you play as the titular character. It may be a little rough around the edges, especially on console, but it’s a great introduction to the survival genre and bashing zombies is always fun.Ĭonan the Barbarian is a brutish warrior that could make the perfect protagonist for a hack ‘n slash video game. Gather resources, build shelter, eat food, and prevent becoming a meal in this expansive survival experience. Surviving in the undead world isn’t easy to do alone, but unless you can bring a friend on board or link up with trustworthy human players, chances are you’ll be facing the growing horde alone. However, the zombie action and the complete lack of trust between real players help elevate the experience a bit. In terms of survival games, it’s far from the best. What better time than when it’s absolutely free? Originally released on PC as a mod for ARMA 2, DayZ slowly became one of those games you always hear about and promise yourself you’ll try. Though DayZ isn’t the first zombie survival game, it’s the only one available on Xbox Game Pass. It was inevitable the moment someone created this genre that zombies would sneak their way into it. ![]() Developer: Bohemia Interactive Publisher: Bohemia Interactive ![]()
