About this game

Rusted Hills: Welcome to the Wilderness is a single-player and co-op survival sandbox set in a fallen America after an economic collapse and a civil war.

America has fallen. Its cities are silent, its roads are empty, and the wilderness has become a dangerous refuge for the last survivors.

Scavenge ruined places, craft tools, build shelter, manage hunger and thirst, and unlock doors and containers in search of valuable resources. By day, you prepare. By night, everything becomes more dangerous.

Hacked military droids, hostile survivors, bandits, and other threats still roam the land. Avoid them, outsmart them, or fight when there is no other choice.

Survive alone or team up with other players. Build, repair, upgrade, and defend your shelter as you face a broken America one day at a time.

When night comes, every decision matters.
