Focus Home Interactive and the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. veterans at Vostok Games have announced that Fear the Wolves, their Battle Royale FPS, will enter Steam Early Access on August 28th.
Combining traditional last-man-standing gameplay with PVE elements and unique radiation, weather, and endgame extraction mechanics, Fear the Wolves guarantees an intense, atmospheric experience in the decaying ruins of Chernobyl.
Watch the Fear the Wolves release date trailer below:
Fear the Wolves enters Early Access with an additional six weeks of development and testing in closed beta. With game performance and balancing now refined, it’s time for Fear the Wolves to be enjoyed by an even wider audience on Steam.
Vostok Games are keen to receive further feedback and improve the game alongside a growing community of players interested in the next evolution of Battle Royale. The first Early Access version already features the core gameplay and S.T.A.L.K.E.R. vibe, and there is much more already in development.

A new map and mode, more weapons, items, mutants, and weather – Vostok Games promise regular, large content patches, with a full plan of the update timeline available on the Steam page throughout development. The community will also play their part, with feedback welcome on everything from weapon balance to new ideas for Fear the Wolves’ unique weather and PvE systems. Further work on server and game stability will also continue for as long as needed.
Fear the Wolves is also expected to arrive on consoles at a later date with a full release in 2019.
