Survive the Nights Server Hosting, Explained
New to Survive the Nights?
What is Survive the Nights?
Survive the Nights is a hardcore open-world zombie survival game set on Black Island. By day you scavenge towns, cut wood, hunt, farm and fortify a building or a vehicle. When night falls the infected gather into hordes drawn to player activity, and the longer you survive, the bigger and more dangerous the nights become. Play it solo or with friends, with seasons, electrical systems, weapon attachments and full Steam Workshop support.
Fortify Everything.
Cover windows, set traps and turn a house or a truck into a base that lasts the night.
Hordes at Night.
Zombies are dangerous in numbers, so preparation and teamwork matter more than gunplay.
