Fun Dog Studios, a new Washington-based studio made up of veteran devs with decades of AAA experience, have announced The Forever Winter, a new co-op survival horror shooter.

The Forever Winter is in development for Windows PC (via Steam) and potentially other platforms based on the game’s success and community feedback. A release date wasn’t announced at this time.

“We came together to bring us back to that time when teams were pushing boundaries, building new worlds, and experimenting with new mechanics that were both satisfying and worthwhile,” said Branford Miles Williams, CEO and Creative Director of Fun Dog Studios. “The Forever Winter is a love letter to that bygone era, challenging players with intense gameplay while offering a fresh perspective on tactical shooters. This is personal to us. After working on some of the most successful games ever, we longed to get back to experimentation and working on new ideas, new IPs and new worlds. The Forever Winter is coming!”

Here’s a rundown on the game, plus its cinematic reveal trailer:

The Forever Winter is a co-op tactical survival horror shooter where you and your squad must loot the dead to survive under the shadow of terrifying and gargantuan war machines locked in a never-ending conflict.

Features

• You’re A Small Fish In A Big Apocalypse – Scavenge and fight for your next day alive under the shadow of gargantuan war machines. Enemies in the game can literally tower over the battlefield. To put it another way:
• War. War Always Changes – The battlefield is unpredictable thanks to The Forever Winter’s Dynamic Encounter system: enemies have their own goals and agendas, operating in coordinated groups, undertaking full-scale battles — and they’ll intelligently react to your actions. The battlefield you leave won’t be the same one you return to.
• Only The Smart Survive. But Guns Help – Use your wits, stealth, and skilled gunplay to make it out alive. Choose your path in the shadow of the two great superpowers, loot the dead, and make it out alive. While the warring factions may ignore you at first, the more disruptive you become to their goals, the more they’ll seek to remove you from the equation.
• A Grim Vision Of The Future – Ecological collapse compounded by runaway technological advancement brought us here: a world choked by 40 years of industrial-scale violence between two military superpowers, unmerciful mass killing by AI automata, human-machine hybrids, and the bleak truth of human nature. There’s two sides to this war, and you’re not on either.
