If you read this all you’re a legend 🙂
Rye, in case you still don't know, Atacama is a desert in South America 😉
Downvoted after just ten seconds. Stop popping words up in the video as you talk. It’s idiotic.
Wait so this dude didn’t actually play the games, but still feels confident to call them the “best survival games” of the year in his clickbaity title? Curious!
i wish dysmantle was 2 player
what a lame list. just because someone free you get excited lol
Im not fersure but i think derelicts is a one man team. he post on tik tok alot and i really think hes gonna pull a forest where it was such a small team with a huge success. it looks great.
I had only heard of one of these somehow, but added them all to wishlist, following, or for two cases, to library. Thank you!
How is 20$ for a game not cheap? It's cheaper than a skin in some games
gone upstate was released on my friends birthday , 25 may , and mine is 20 may
What about deep rock galatic
Dysmantle is a fantastic game, but not really a survival game in the same vein as the others on this list.
Really more a hack’n’slash with a lot of environmental, well, dismantlement.

so only steams games featured? thats disappointing your missing out on a fair few games that blow this list out of the water there are more places to find great games than just steam
My dude, RAFT is the most shallow and boring game of all time, there is jack shit to do in the game… You finish it in 4 hours and get everything you need to survive and keep on, there is no goal or reason to continue to play
The forest isn’t on there?
All these games combined won't beat The Forest, Stranded Deep, Rust and DayZ
only Derelicts is worth it
i love zera but it’s so dead now😢
A Ta Ca Ma. Seriously. It's a real place.
Me, living in the atacama desert: Never seen this game before…
Gone Upstate graphics wise looks like Firewatch
Dysmantle is boring af
Atacama is a desert in South America, Chile
Gothic like in the pre-ilunist era? Like pré industrial post medieval europeu
Stranded deep has sun burn…. and came out before Arid.
I want to play in this! I'm also really looking forward to the big extime primal menace gameplay trailer, I wonder what kind of gameplay will be there .. Has anyone heard anything about her?
With the trump indictment Obama's head is on the block after he publicly stated he ordered the murder of an american citizen without trial using a drone… might want to rethink using him. he is also accused with evidence of committing fraud and some dodgy plane full of money to iran!!! The president is now set so it is open season for former presidents obama might be one of the first (clintons never delivering money they raised for Philippians after huricane is close second)
wow im surprised i didnt see rust on there damn ok
THE INFECTED …….take a look
what about SCUM ?
Its a real place……are you trolling us?…..the Ad-da-Cam-ma
Where the fuck is unturned
£15.49 not cheap?! 😂🤣🤣🤣 I like this guy, he cracks me up! We got games selling for £70.00 right now. 😂
you've never seen sunburn in a game before? You definitely not the guide i was looking for if you havent play ANY survival game that has sunburn AT ALL… like Stranded Deep maybe? You've lost it.
not sure why 7 days to die is not included in this list. Its a zombie apocalyps game that lets you terraform your land upgrade your base brick by brick giving you all the freedom go crazy with your design. Another mechanics of this game is how yu scavenge resources upgrade your weapons and gears and traps to fight the zombies.
All Gay!
Well ,most games were dissapointing, might give a try to V rising once it releases.
Derelicts will be another great failure.
Still, video deserves a like just for not being exact 1:1 copy of steam top list like every single other channel
xera suvival is probably one of the worst survival games ive ever wasted my time playing. its boring as hell
Holy crap, you've proven why you should spend more than three days researching anything. What a list of unplayable or garbage games. What were you thinking?
colony survival is a pretty good one. It's been updated quite a lot since release.
Jesus died on the cross for the sin of the world and rose again three days later, Jesus is the resurrection and the life, Jesus is the son of God and the Lord and savior over everyone, give your life to Jesus and call on the name of the Lord and you WILL BE SAVED, God is a God of judgment, and also a God of joy and goodness, and holiness, and mercy, and grace, repent from your sins and believe in the Lord Jesus Christ and what is in this Paragraph and read the Holy Bible because I'm getting this information from there, don't turn your face from the Almighty God of Israel, if you don't choose God you are a fool and I'm sorry to say this but it is true and i was once a fool too I'm not coming at you and judging you, I'm simply saying if you know the truth yet you don't do it, then what are you seeking, are you seeking lies? I don't know about you but i want the truth even if it is hard and painful and seems like a step on the toe, it is better than to be spiritually blind to what is happening in life and in the world.
love you and God loves you too
Stay true
God is with you just call on Him
You just proves that u have no idea how a game actually is good by stating V rising is positive game .
1:08 “at-a-car-ma” Look up Atacama desert on google.
100 player servers when there's 71 people playing the entire game 🤣
Where’s green hell and stranded deep
Derelicts is still in "Soon™" state so it's kinda bad u put this in this list tbh.
If I learned something, then it is to never trust "soon" dev statements. Unfortunate, but it is how it is.
6:21 Daiablo xD
I realize this video was posted over a year ago but it hasn't aged well. Some games that are hyped here have been abandoned and some even turned out to be nothing but a cash grab.
I personally think dysmantle is more souls like not survival
It's important to note that not all of these are available outside of Steam (PC)!
Are there any games I missed? Let me know and I might do a follow up video 🙂
