Still not having enough of Battle Royale video games? With the ongoing E3 in Los Angeles, you won’t be disappointed as another group of developers based in Kiev, Ukraine, announce another Battle Royale that is set in a radioactive environment. Called “Fear The Wolves” it is said to be PUBG/Fortnite meets S.T.A.L.K.E.R. as the team behind this game is also behind the first-person shooter survival horror video game and have set up Vostok Games.

If you are familiar with Ukraine, then you are also familiar with Chernobyl, the radioactive wasteland in that country. The game drops 100 players in a post-apocalyptic Chernobyl and they will need to survive in order to win. There are two ways to win in this game: you will be sole survivor at the end or you will get to the extraction point where a chopper gets to pick up only one player even if there are still other surviving players.

To survive, players will need to scavenge for weapons, Hazmat suits, and gas masks. If unprotected by a Hazmat or a gas mask, a player won’t be able to pick up loot in an radioactive area. There will be air drops as well so that is the chance to get better equipment even without going to a radioactive area. But both air drops and areas with radiation provide the best loot in order to survive. In the same vein as PUBG and Fortnite, the game area will shrink but in the case of Fear The Wolves, more radiation will flood the area and if you do not have protective equipment, then you will be put at a disadvantage such as being slower, suffer from hallucinations, and of course radioactive poisoning.

Radiation and other players are not the only dangers in the game. As the in the game title there are wolves that usually hunt in packs to hunt down players. If you are smart enough, you can use these wolves against your enemies. The wolves are mutants as they are affected by the radiation and there might be more mutants in the game though these have not been revealed by the game developers.

The extraction point that you will need to reach in order to escape via a helicopter will vary and knowledge of the game map will be crucial. But if you prefer doing rock roll shooting at anything that moves, then feel free to eliminate all the players in the game and be the last man or woman standing.

Fear The Wolves will be first released for the PC later this year with game consoles to follow and expected to be available in 2019. Early access to the game begins this summer.
