hey there and welcome to my top 10 Base building survival games featuring Indie titles set to release in roughly the next 6 to 12 months these games offer diverse worlds and new adventures as you craft build and battle your way through post-apocalyptic Futures Subterranean Martian Caverns otherworldly extra dimensional Realms and Beyond there's certainly something for everyone and real quick if you're enjoying the video and you have an extra second it would help me tremendously if you left it a like I would really appreciate it anyway without further Ado let's begin so first up there's this game called under a rock and it's probably in my top three on this list it's an open world survival crafting game that supports one to ten plus players and is being developed for Windows Linux PS5 and Xbox series X and so you play as a 19th century explorer who crash lands in this mysterious world that's been forgotten by history and you've got to figure out what happened to this previous Expedition you gotta lift a curse and then find your way back home and all the while you'll be exploring crafting building and more every player gets their own unique procedurally generated 64 square kilometer world with caves underwater areas to check out and you can share these worlds with others and travel between them and all the while keep your stats and your gear and you'll be competing with this Advanced AI for territory and resources and you'll have to build bases and defenses and the game has two seamless build modes so there's like default mode for Hands-On construction you just put the materials in and you build whatever you want and then there's this Advanced quote ghost building which is for planning out your base layout and then finishing it later when you have the resources so if you're tired of rebuilding your base after every raid you can just activate the auto saved blueprint and everything will show up as a ghost element ready for you to just add back the resources to rebuild and so with this ghost blueprint feature you can basically set up pre-made campsites Outpost or even big bases almost anywhere and you can build on the ground in the trees in the caves even underwater they're not really restricting where you can build at all but you'll have to watch out for wildlife and locals like a neighboring Neanderthal Clan might raid your base just because they don't like your smell or a pack of dodos could attack you for it no reason at all under a rock is built on Unreal Engine 5 and so it takes full advantage of nanite and Lumen Technologies for a super immersive and detailed open World experience with amazing view distances the character creation system is super robust letting you fully customize your character oh and you can even tame and ride some creatures the game's been in development since October 2021 and they're planning to release into Early Access but they don't have a date set just yet from the darkness [Music] literally just revealed a couple of days ago in fact I had to cram it into this list making this a top 11 list just because I could not leave it out it might look a little rough around the edges but keep in mind that it was literally just revealed and so it's quite early in development but there are already many people comparing this game to valheim and saying that this is valheim Beats breath of the wild and so it's called enshrouded and it's set in the Lost realm of Ember Vale basically your ancestors went crazy for some magical power and ended up causing this devastating pestilence called the Shroud and the game is all about survival crafting and action RPG combat and it's set in this massive voxel-based continent and voxel-based basically means like similar to Minecraft and so you get to explore mountains deserts and you'll uncover this hidden story you'll Adventure through forests caves and dungeons searching for its secret knowledge and treasure and building up the strength to face the horrors of the Shroud and so you have to fight your way through all sorts of enemies like fiends of the forests Buca of the mountains and fell creatures in the Mist the game has a really cool looking skill tree system and you can really develop your own unique play style with fighting skills and spells and more importantly you'll get to build amazing structures using voxel-based building techniques customizing them with different materials and furniture and by providing safe haven for NPCs they will help you out by unlocking Advanced workshops and the ability to craft epic weapons and armor you'll be able to master using a shield sword staff and or bow to take on the Shroud and you'll be able to team up with friends in up to 16 player co-op gameplay you will raid gather treasure and fight Bell hordes together the game takes you through embervale's biomes immersing you in Fallen cultures and ancient myths like the mystical Kindle wastes desert and the dark Revel wood and the story will unfold as you play revealing a tale of magic ruin hope and Redemption and shrouded is built on the custom made holistic engine made by the developers just for this game and it's set to release into Early Access in 2023 with a full release in 2024. at first it'll be a PC exclusive but the developers do plan to bring it to consoles soon after foreign this next one is set in the year 2071 and it's called Blind descent and you're on a mission to find a Pioneer team that went missing while exploring a newly opened mine on Mars you and some team members go down this 10 Mile deep Martian cave but the elevator crashes leaving only a few survivors with no communication to the surface and no clue about the Lost Pioneer team you start exploring the tunnel and stumble upon a Subterranean World beneath Mars filled with alien life dense jungles and bizarre weather you can play this game Solo or with up to four friends in co-op mode and you'll Venture through the vast Martian underground world to uncover its Secrets by exploring massive and challenging environments the game offers full freedom of exploration you can Harvest resources craft tools and climb anywhere you want row across underground seas in a boat and even build structures to overcome obstacles you'll also construct a shelter or house to call home complete with Furniture crafting tools and more but make sure your house is strong enough to withstand harsh weather and strange creatures and so as you progress to the story you'll improve your crafting skills weapons and more and your goal is to find an energy source that will help you power your printer presumably a 3D printer and a signal booster which will help you establish connection with the surface to let them know that you're alive blind descent is still very early in development but they did have a limited demo event back in March of 2023 they are planning on launching An Early Access version but the time frame hasn't been announced just yet I've been keeping my eye on this next one for a long time imagine this You and Your Friends crash land on Earth in a space shuttle and you have to start all over you'll explore and build a base to defend against mutated animals and humans while uncovering the origin of the defense mechanism that Unleashed radiation waves forcing a few privileged Cubans to live on space station so it's kind of sounding a lot like the 2013 film Elysium so far the game is called derelicts and it's inspired by games like the forest the map features an interconnected Subterranean cave system with massive bosses and unique challenges that you need to beat in order to move the story forward you'll gather resources chalk trees and mine metals to build a secure base to protect yourself from mutated Wildlife you'll generate electricity using wind turbines water wheels and even solar panels but watch out for weather changes that can impact your power production you can also automate your

destination with endless Beauty and nature let your troubles melt away in this Tropical Paradise relax your mind and soul on one of our breathtaking beaches or stimulate your adventurous side with exciting activities found all over the island if you're into Epic Base build you're gonna love this next one which is set on Earth in the year 21-22 so about a hundred years from now and about a century after a teleportation system called the veil has crashed your character is a clone restored from backup system data and you're stuck in this persistent survival MMO apocalyptic nightmare called fractured Veil you can choose to survive alone or team up with friends as you gather build Quest Craft raid and defend against the Island's scariest mutants monsters and Horrors as well as other players the game has some cool features like a detailed building system similar to rust if you ask me a tiered skill-based crafting system balanced PVE and PVE quests dungeons ranging from small to Diablo inspired spaces and RPG style player progression with talents abilities and skills and there's also a procedurally generated building Road and river system for the map speaking of map fractured veil has a huge 64 square kilometer open world based on real world topographical data from Maui a dynamic weather system and day night cycle makes the environment unpredictable and exciting to explore but watch out for mutants monsters and players lurking everywhere and remember to burn the bodies you'll need to harvest resources to craft essential survival items like shelter food equipment and weapons and AI drones will be patrolling the map and live streaming gameplay to Twitch 24 7 focusing on PVP ve action and offering a unique view of the game in standard night vision Spotlight and thermal modes and you can tune into the Drone stream to watch the action unfold in real time anytime fractured Veil is built on Unreal Engine 5 exclusively for PC and Early Access is planned for quarter 4 2023 a couple of months ago I couldn't even imagine that I would end up here and all this would happen to me all right moving on now to outbreak Island a game where some really weird events have happened on an island causing most of the people there to either vanish or go through some crazy mutations and you are sent in alone to see what's going on but once you're there you realize that there's no way out and so you have to stick around and survive at night radioactive energy powers the Island's electrical grid so that you can use the infrastructure there to build shelters and produce resources in factories and Sawmills for example but that's not all night time is also when you can explore the multi-level underground labs that will be filled with monsters and sweet loot so you'll need to craft and upgrade weapons equipment and your skills to be ready for battle and you'll have to fortify your base to survive weekly surges which is when monster hordes attack so kind of like seven days to die where you have to fortify your base and survive these weekly onslaughts and so you'll have to master skills like farming Gathering and hunting to make the most of the limited food resources play plus you can combine ingredients with culinary recipes to make special food that will keep you alive in the long run outbreak island has a completely open 20 square kilometer world with tons of diverse locations and Landscapes just fuel up your vehicle grab some supplies and set out on an adventure across the Island's Uncharted terrain the game will be made on Unreal Engine 5 and it looks like it's on track for a 2023 release so get ready for an intense survival horror experience alright last one on this list technically number 11 on my top 10 list go figure you get one bonus one this one's called Grand Emprise time travel survival kind of a mouthful but this one takes you on a journey through different eras of time so you start in the pre-life era and then you travel through the dinosaur era through primitive times to the colonial era through ancient Wars and then finally Landing into the industrial revolution and I've seen on Twitter that there might be a space age after that and so as you move along from one era to another you'll develop new technologies so you'll go from like riding dinosaurs and forging primitive tools to then building colonies and sieging castles to then experiencing the excitement and Automation and mobilization when you reach the Industrial Revolution with electric machines Base building is a huge part of the game too and you'll start with simple houses that then evolve into creating tribal colonies and eventually you'll develop an industrial electrical Zone combat is pretty important as well you'll be battling dinosaurs using rocks and primitive Spears and then you'll move on to sharp swords and finally into firearms and you'll also spend a lot of time exploring and Gathering resources which are essential for your survival and advancing through the eras so you'll need to collect unique resources to develop new technologies and some cool things you can do include the sieging castles flying and hot air balloons automating your world with machines and electricity and even building and sailing industrial ships and aircraft to rule the skies the game is expected to release on PC sometime in 2023 and it is made by a solo developer so if you're eager to dive into these worlds and test your survival and building skills keep an eye out for release dates and announcements from the developers
