Aethernum Infecti is a third-person, truly terrifying open-world survival game set in a haunting post-apocalyptic world. Scavenge cities and wilderness for food, medicine, and weapons while evading relentless infected. Explore a vast, desolate land where silence is deadly and survival is everything.

Aeternum Infecti is a third-person, open-world post-apocalyptic survival experience unfolding in the immediate aftermath of a devastating global collapse—only one week after the world as we knew it fell apart. Play as Marlo, a survivor struggling to stay alive as society begins to break down. Cities still stand, homes remain untouched, yet danger now hides behind every corner. Survival depends on scavenging apartments, streets, and nearby wildlands for food, medicine, weapons, and vital supplies.
By Marlo’s side is Anna, the person he refuses to lose in a post-apocalyptic world changing faster than anyone can understand. Together, they explore a vast, unsettling land overrun by relentless infected, where silence can be as deadly as noise. As they fight to survive, Marlo is driven not only by staying alive, but by a growing need to uncover the truth behind the outbreak and understand what truly happened. In a world not yet destroyed but quickly falling apart, hope is fragile, answers are rare, and every step forward carries risk and meaning.

Explore a vast, desolate world shaped by collapse and mystery, where silence is as dangerous as noise, and every shadow may be watching. Strange phenomena and long-buried truths await those who dare to push forward, but survival always comes first. In a world that no longer forgives mistakes, the question isn’t what happened… it’s how long you can endure.

A true open-world survival experience where every corner and every building can be explored, no barriers, no limits, only survival at its core.
Experience the world of Aethernum Infecti either traditionally or fully immersed in virtual reality. Every action, encounter, and moment of survival is playable in VR, bringing you closer to the danger, tension, and atmosphere of the apocalypse.
