SUBJECTS
Steam
SUBJECTS is a 4-player co-op survival horror game. You are a Raider, one of the desperate souls outfitted in an Epoch Syndicate suit, tasked with scavenging their supposedly old, abandoned research facilities. It seemed like a straightforward deal: retrieve valuable assets for ES, get paid, and contribute to their "cleanup" efforts. But beneath this façade lies a horrifying truth: these raids are merely another form of experimentation. The Epoch Syndicate tests your limits, your will, and your humanity, and no one who enters these depths ever truly leaves. Escape is an illusion; survival is your only desperate directive.
Deep underground, isolated and disoriented by Syndicate manipulations targeting your very mind, your identity frays as reality blurs. The line between sanity and induced madness thins with every passing moment.

The omnipresent Epoch Syndicate, secretly ruling the world, aims to forcibly evolve humanity through ruthless methods. They cunningly use 'Raiders' like you, equipped with suits and tasks, to clear out their old facilities – a convenient facade for their relentless, brutal human experimentation, where every Raider is just another unwitting Subject.

Each "mission" plunges your team into a new, procedurally generated labyrinth. Fulfill ES-dictated objectives, extract loot for upgrades under their watchful eyes, and survive its hostile entities, power outages, locked doors, and deadly environmental puzzles. This entire "assignment" is a deadly, orchestrated test of your endurance.

ES documents your every struggle as your perception of reality is systematically shattered. Many Raiders have broken before you, their hopes extinguished. Though branded a Subject in their grand, horrifying design, can you defy their control and somehow still remain human?

Your sanity frays, your "escape" a Syndicate lie. Welcome to SUBJECTS. The experiment is you.
