Last Light: Survival

Last Light: Survival is a first-person, open-world survival game about a carpenter trying to endure after civilization falls. You can control the undead, recruit human survivors and build a settlement, while uncovering the truth behind the camp’s collapse through memories that return in an order you do not control.

The past and the infection

You remember that your wife became sick and that you hid her illness to protect the group. The infection spread and the camp fell, but this account is incomplete. As you survive, playable memory fragments reveal more about what happened and raise questions about who was infected first, what happened to your daughter and why the camp really fell.

Control the dead

A plant known as the SEED grows among the ruins. Consuming it lets you control the undead, from individual zombies to entire hordes. You can send zombies to scout, flank or guard, or use a horde to clear paths, overwhelm enemy nests and defend your base alongside your human companions.

Recruit and organize survivors

You can recruit human survivors into your shelter, assign them tasks and form squads. They gather wood and stone, hunt for food, work and build, and fight when a horde attacks. Decisions you make for and about your companions affect who survives.

Build and survive

Gather materials by cutting trees and breaking stone, scavenge abandoned locations for tools, weapons and supplies, and hunt animals for food. You also manage hunger, thirst, fatigue and gear as conditions worsen. Craft tools, weapons and structures, then expand a makeshift shelter into a fortified settlement.

The dead attack in waves, so you must defend your base with human and undead allies. Day turns to night, the weather can change without warning, and snowfall slows you, your companions and your enemies. Darkness affects gameplay, while cold is a threat.
