The early access version of the multiplayer shooter Scavengers has launched. We will tell you how to participate in the battles and obtain a Steam key.
What is Scavengers? The free-to-play shooter Scavengers combines survival with PvP elements. You are a scavenger searching for data on a frozen Earth that is vital for the survival of humanity. To do this, you are repeatedly shot from an orbital bunker down to Earth for missions.
In the match with 60 players, you are in teams of 3 – internal tests even allowed for 9,000 players. You need to find data points and reach a dropship with the collected data. You will face not only wild beasts but also the other teams. Additionally, the weather will challenge you with severe storms. It is important to seek shelter during such a storm, as otherwise you receive a nasty debuff and slowly lose max HP, which cannot be healed.
It is also important to equip yourself well with weapons beforehand, and you can improve your character over time. The trailer explains what you can expect during the early access phase:
