Check out the new gameplay trailer!

[previewyoutube=pWdMg5iY2-0;full][/previewyoutube] The trailer shows combat footage and two planned maps along with new backgrounds, characters and enemies. Stories from the Outbreak is also getting a graphical rework: the whole aesthetics are getting a bit darker, in order to place an accent on apocalyptic themes. We have also changed the focus for the first early access version of the game: we really like how the combat is turning out, so the accent is going to be placed on the combat and map events. Stories from the Outbreak is a turn-based zombie RPG. Lead a group of survivors from the doomed city of Riga towards the ferry sailing across the North Sea. Stories from the outbreak is a story generator first and foremost. Not all of the people are going to survive. Not every team is going to make it. This is how it is intended to be. If you have any questions - feel fee to ask them here! Best, Vladimir and Coldwild Games team

You wake up in your apartment in the city of Riga and turn the radio on. The order has completely collapsed and the streets are not safe. The police and the army will not protect you. There is one last ferry heading out to Iceland from the western shore. You can only rely on yourself now.
