At the moment, the extraction shooter genre is in tatters, with Escape from Tarkov’s developer making some awful decisions that have left the community writhing in rage.

Gray Zone Warfare Is Here
Gray Zone Warfare will be available to purchase in an early access state from tomorrow, April 30.

If you’re wondering how much Gray Zone Warfare will cost, we wrote up a piece breaking down the price points and every bundle for the game.
Gray Zone Warfare aims to change the game where the extraction genre is concerned. It’s a persistent, open-world title that can be played solo or with a team, and it features intensely realistic mechanics and combat elements. It’s part survival game, part tactical FPS, and it features a massive world teeming with threats. Players are free to come and go as they please, embarking on a journey from their home base and exploring the open world unencumbered by a time limit.
It’s a breath of fresh air – Escape from Tarkov and its more restrictive operating model have dominated the genre for years.
Gray Zone Warfare launches into early access tomorrow, April 30, exclusively on Steam.
