Vorax

In the heart of the Mediterranean, a once-tranquil island now harbors a chilling secret. Vorax, an open-world survival horror experience, plunges you into a nightmarish scenario where survival is a relentless struggle against the unknown. A lethal pathogen has swept through the local population, transforming this picturesque setting into a breeding ground for terror. Your ordeal begins with a mission gone horribly awry. As you crash-land onto this forsaken island, you find yourself trapped in an escalating nightmare. Alone, with minimal resources and a meager survival kit, your battle for survival is just beginning.

  • Scavenge and Craft: With limited supplies, you must improvise to create tools, weapons, and shelter. The art of survival demands ingenuity and resilience.
