Developer Gleamer Studios has announced the Settlement Survival early access release is pushed forward, now set for October 11 instead of its previously announced date.
Now that the Settlement Survival early access release is set for October 11th over its previous launch on the 15th, it will be available via Steam. The reasoning behind the earlier date is the game’s playable demo (which is still available), which Gleamer notes was “hugely successful.”
