DISTANT VISITANT
SteamAbout DISTANT VISITANT
EXPLORE A SHATTERED WORLD
The world you knew is gone. A sudden collapse left civilization in ruins—communication is dead, supplies are dwindling, and the streets are silent.
In DISTANT VISITANT, you explore a vast, top-down open world from ravaged suburbs to dark industrial sectors. Scavenge abandoned homes for resources, rescue stranded survivors, and piece together the mystery of the arrival. But be warned: strange sounds echo through the empty streets, and vague shapes patrol the night. The cities may look empty, but you are never truly alone.
DEFEND AGAINST THE UNKNOWN
You are no longer at the top of the food chain. Strange sounds fill the night, and vague shapes patrol the streets. Their behavior defies reason, and they are hunting you.
•
Tactical Combat: Master a deadly arsenal of firearms and melee weapons to defend your territory. But choose your fights wisely—ammo is scarce and gunshots attract unwanted attention.
•
The Visitors: These are not normal enemies. Prepare for encounters with entities that are far from human. You must uncover the mystery of their arrival while defending against their aggressive patrols.
Make Hard Choices: You will encounter hurt and lost survivors in the ruins. It is up to you to decide—risk your life to answer their pleas or walk away to ensure your own survival.
SURVIVE THE SEASONS
The environment is just as deadly as the visitors. In DISTANT VISITANT, survival is a complex balancing act where the world changes around you.
•
Deep Simulation: Manage five core survival needs—Energy, Hunger, Hydration, Bladder, and Hygiene. Neglecting your cleanliness or diet will weaken your survivor.
•
Prepare for the Cold: A fully dynamic weather system brings harsh winters that freeze lakes and kill crops. You must stockpile food, fuel and water to endure the season.
•
Dynamic Conditions: Rain, fog, and snowstorms impact visibility and movement. Plan your expeditions carefully getting lost in a blizzard with low energy can be fatal.
BUILD, CRAFT, AND ADAPT
Hiding in abandoned ruins will only get you so far. To truly survive, you must claim territory and build a facility capable of sustaining you.
•
Build Your Fortress: Construct a custom base to house your supplies and protect against the cold. You need a secure, covered location to operate the workstations required for survival.
•
Active & Passive Crafting: How you work is up to you. Manually operate your workstations to gain XP and trigger quality bonuses or queue up your crafting and walk away to explore while the work continues in the background.
•
Workstation Upgrades: A bench is only as good as its tools. Find or craft unique tools—like vices, anvils, or precision sets—and equip them to your workstations to unlock advanced recipes and higher tiers of crafting.
MASTER YOUR SURVIVOR
You are not born a soldier. In DISTANT VISITANT, you only get better at what you actually do.
•
Action-Based Progression: Your character's proficiency evolves based on usage. To reach higher levels in Cooking, you must cook. To improve at Marksmanship, you must fight.
•
Specialized Mastery: Open the comprehensive Talent UI to track your progress across distinct categories: Ranged Weapons, Melee Combat, and Life Skills. As you gain proficiency, you earn skill points to unlock new skills.
