Sunkenland is an upcoming survival game on Steam. The gameplay trailer already shows a first glimpse of the new game, which resembles a mix of the two popular games “Raft” and “Rust”.
Sunkenland is a survival and exploration game set in a post-apocalyptic world. It is located in a near future where a large part of the Earth is covered by water.
As players, you will explore sunken cities, gather resources, and build a base. At the same time, you must also fight for your survival and defend yourself against hostile pirates and mutants.
The game is a single-player title but will also feature online co-op.

Survive in a water world full of dangers
What does the gameplay look like? In Sunkenland, you explore the post-apocalyptic environment, complete missions, and trade with allies.
You explore islands on foot, race across the water on jet skis, or dive down. In the depths, you will find the sunken remains of cities, such as skyscrapers or subway tunnels.
Using the resources you gather on your tours, you craft equipment and build your own base on water or land. However, you must protect it with defenses against nasty pirates and mutants.
You have access to melee weapons, firearms, and explosives to defend yourself in the style of a first-person shooter.
You will experience all of this not only solo but also with your friends in co-op mode.
When is the release of Sunkenland? On Steam, no fixed release date has been provided for the new game yet, but it is said to be “available soon”.
An early access launch is initially planned to interact with the community and incorporate player feedback and ideas into the game’s development. The early access is expected to begin this summer (via YouTube).
How does the community react to the trailer? Many reddit- and YouTube users are expressing very positive opinions under the gameplay trailer of Sunkenland, saying the game looks promising. Some players compare it to other game titles:
