Publisher tinyBuild and developer DogHowl Games announced at the PC Gaming Show today that Level Zero: Extraction, the upcoming multiplayer extraction horror game, will host an open beta test on Steam beginning today and continuing through Steam Next Fest until June 17. The announcement came with a brand-new gameplay trailer, highlighting its high-stakes asymmetric PvPvE action and tactical FPS combat.
Following a successful closed beta earlier this year, Level Zero: Extraction’s new open beta introduces a number of new features and updates based on player feedback. Discover new locations to explore, realistic military-grade weapons, and AI enemies for PvE gameplay, in addition to quality-of-life improvements to balance, combat mechanics, progression, server stability, and more.
Developed in Unreal Engine 5 by small but ambitious Ukraine-based studio DogHowl Games, Level Zero: Extraction is a new, original take on multiplayer survival horror. Players will embark on dangerous scavenging expeditions where multiple mercenary teams compete for valuable loot. Meanwhile, another two players will take on the role of deadly alien monsters that can only be killed with light, hunting the humans from the shadows.
