Steam survival game festival kicks off August with adversity
August is set to begin with a Steam survival game festival aiming to highlight a range of current and upcoming survival-themed PC games on the storefront. Valve says it plans to feature a range of games that fit into the survival genre, including survival horror games as well as open-world survival crafting games.
The Steam Survival Fest is scheduled to run from August 1 - 8 at 10am PT / 1pm ET / 6pm BST. Valve says that “participating games must have survival as the primary game mechanic.” It emphasises a “focus on using defensive tactics to stay in the game against destructive forces including nature or supernatural beings.”
Games included will be promoted on the Steam homepage, much as with other similar events such as Steam Next Fest. Games do not have to offer a discount to be included in the festival, although Valve says that “the Steam Survival Fest page will prominently feature discounted games.” Demos of upcoming games are also encouraged.
