Dinosaur stealth survival horror game Wilderdark announced for PC

by

The creators of the Monstrum series, Team Junkfish, have revealed their next game, Wilderdark. It’s a scary, first-person survival horror game where you’ll need to sneak around a mysterious island filled with dinosaur-like creatures and other strange organisms. Wilderdark is coming to PC via Steam in 2026, and a playable demo will be available on May 7th.

Team Junkfish has been working on Wilderdark for over three years, and they’re thrilled to finally reveal it, according to senior marketing manager Ellie Gibbs. They’ve been quietly developing the game and are excited to offer the kind of horror experience their fans have requested. The recently released demo is just a taste of what’s to come, and players can expect more next week.

Here is an overview of the game, via Team Junkfish:

About

In the survival horror game Wilderdark, you’re stranded on a strange island overrun by a bizarre parasite that’s twisting the dinosaurs and plants. You’ve been sent by your organization to find a way to achieve immortality, and your mission involves studying the island’s ecosystem, gathering samples, and discovering what happened to past expeditions – including one your parents led.

In Wilderdark, you’re stranded on a dangerous island with very little to help you survive. It’s a suspenseful and immersive world where staying hidden is crucial – even a small noise can draw the attention of powerful predators. The island is full of strange and deadly creatures, including horrifying dinosaurs infected with parasites. To understand what happened, you’ll need to carefully watch your surroundings, record your findings with photos, and build tools from anything you can find. It’s a constant struggle to manage your limited resources, avoid being seen, and outsmart the island’s persistent hunters.

Explore and Investigate

After crash-landing on the island, you’ll have very few supplies to begin with. To survive, you’ll need to be stealthy, as the island is full of threats. Discover the story of what happened by exploring your surroundings, taking pictures, and building tools. Managing your limited resources carefully is crucial for hiding and avoiding the island’s dangerous predators.

Ectoparasites

We don’t know much about where these things came from or how they impact living creatures, including people. A single mistake could lead to disaster or unleash something completely unexpected.

Can you escape the fate that has fallen so many and live to tell a tale?
