About Scavenger Survivors

A 1–4 player co-op survivors-like about hauling scrap out of a world the Machines already won, while your friends make it worse.

Your home is the RIG, a moving armored fortress. Drive into the zone, jump off, grab anything that isn't welded down, and get it back to cargo before the horde eats the truck.

Loot has real weight. Generators, safes and power cores have to be carried, dragged or thrown back to the RIG. Done looting? The driver can tether the whole crew and drag them across the map, ready or not.

The Machines don't come in fives, they come in thousands. The RIG's guns are your shield: man a turret, take the wheel, or work the ground game. Vacuum up brains to level up, pick upgrade cards and evolve your weapons.

Every run is a gamble: the longer you stay, the worse the horde gets. Make it to extraction and spend your haul between runs on rigs, talents and blueprints.

Play together on one screen, or with Steam Remote Play Together: only one person needs to own the game, and up to three friends join from their own PCs for free. Full controller support.
