From the Steam store

System Arrival is a top-down survival action RPG you can play solo or in online co-op with up to four players. Fight your way through a ruined world, bring supplies back to your underground bunker and turn a fragile shelter into a home for survivors.

Survive together

Invite friends into your story game and share one world, one bunker and a common quest progression. Take control of different survivors, head out on expeditions, gather supplies and develop your base together. Keep track of your teammates on the map and use shared markers to coordinate your next move.

Play together on one PC in two-player local co-op, with split-screen or two monitors. Use a keyboard and mouse plus a controller, or two controllers. Online co-op supports up to four players; local co-op supports two.

The world is now a game

The System arrived without warning. It gave some people quests, levels and psychic powers, turned others into monsters — and now it keeps score. Among the ruins of modern-day North America, meet survivors, complete the System's quests and choose your responses in conversations. Decide whom to trust: humanity, Earth's AI or the System itself.

Inspired by LitRPG and System Apocalypse stories. LitRPG was born from games — we brought it back.

Build your bunker

Build and furnish rooms underground. Turn supplies from your expeditions into equipment and base improvements, unlock technologies and expand what your shelter can do.

Look after your survivors

Assign survivors to gather resources, watch their needs and train their skills. Between expeditions, life goes on in the bunker: its residents need both work and recovery.

Fight with weapons and psychic powers

Aim your shots, strike in melee and dodge incoming attacks. Combine weapons with psychic abilities to protect your character and hit groups of monsters with powerful attacks.

Prepare your defenses

Place barricades and defensive installations, prepare your positions and repel attacks on the bunker. Plan your defenses before the enemy reaches your fortifications.

Choose your moment to strike

Sneak up on enemies and watch for signs that you have been spotted. Reposition in combat and respond to pressure from groups of enemies: the deeper you venture, the harder it becomes to return with your supplies.

Develop your character and study DNA

Combine Intelligence, Constitution, Strength and Agility with skills, equipment and random mutations to find your own playstyle. Study monster DNA to unlock implants, abilities and crafting recipes, and improve armor and bunker technologies.
