Following a lot of anticipation, a fair bit of begging, and repeatedly rewatching numerous trailers and developer videos, I can finally say that we’re about to The Forever Winter. For fans of the extraction shooter genre, this is one of the most unique entries in the genre to date. You’re no one. A scavenger in the middle of an all-out planetary war. Can you survive? When can you play The Forever Winter?
Do We Know The Forever Winter Release Date?
Following an exceptional release date announcement trailer, in which developer Fun Dog Studios speaks nothing but the truth and calls out a lot of the game development industry, we finally know the official The Forever Winter release date. You can play The Forever Winter on September 24! We’re just a few short weeks from the time of this writing before we become no-one and skirt through hostile territory in search of supplies and salvage!
The trailer is definitely worth watching! It shows a bit more of the game’s development, including the character models and multiplayer maps, and even details the team’s plans for its future development. They promise no pay-to-win, just skill and luck, no paid characters, no paid maps or weapons, just content for the community to enjoy. The only microtransactions will be cosmetic skin packs to support ongoing development.

Is The Forever Winter Early Access or Full Release?
When The Forever Winter launches in late September, it will be an Early Access title. This means it will most likely include numerous bugs and glitches that could affect gameplay. As usual with Early Access titles, especially indie projects, it’s important to temper expectations and remain patient. The studio is building its dream project and will fix every bug the community encounters in due time!
If you can’t get enough of the extraction shooter genre—welcome to the club!—you probably want to know whether Escape From Tarkov PvE is any good, right?
