Press release:
LOS ANGELES – March 24, 2023.
The Paris-based (France) indie games publisher Twin Sails Interactive (the publisher of “Gloomhaven” and “Ember Knights”) and L.A.-based (the US) indie games developer Odinsoft, are today very thrilled and proud to announce that their single-player survival game “Survival: Fountain of Youth” (which is set in the 16th-century Caribbean islands), is coming to PC via Steam Early Access on April 19th, 2023 (as revealed during the 2023 edition of the Future Games Show).
PlayStation 5 and Xbox Series X|S will set sail alongside the PC 1.0 launch following Early Access.
Join Juan Ponce de Leon’s 16th-century Spanish expedition in search of the mythical fountain of youth. Stranded off the coast of the Caribbean islands following a shipwreck, fight for survival against the harsh elements, diseases, exhaustion, and other unforeseen hazards while traversing breathtaking locations in hopes of finding fellow crewmates and a means of escape.
Explore a diverse island ecosystem, scavenging for supplies, crafting tools, and hunting game. Gather resources to create stone spears, single-shot handguns, and more weapons to take down giant lizards, wild ox, and even fearsome leopards.
Discover raw materials to assemble campfires, bedding, shelter, and other creature comforts to stay alive. Meticulously manage resources to conserve food, maintain supplies to treat injuries, and do whatever it takes to stay healthy. Be aware of the weather and time, as temperatures dropping after dark will require fire or shelter for warmth, while the sun’s blistering heat can cause extreme fatigue and dehydration.
Build a range of sea-faring ships, from primitive rafts to glorious Spanish vessels, and travel across more than 15 islands with different resources, fauna, and secrets to discover. Follow a story of Golden Age exploration or set out for a player-defined adventure across the map.
The Early Access version will debut with two expansive regions, with three additional regions planned for subsequent updates that incorporate new biomes, story quests, and more. Survival: Fountain of Youth boasts a challenging open-world survival adventure that features a captivating storyline that yearns to be unearthed.
“We wanted to create an immersive and challenging survival experience set in a historically rich and mysterious world,” said Stas Ignatov, Head of Publishing, Odinsoft.
“We believe Survival: Fountain of Youth will become a favorite among gamers who love exploration, and will continue to update and improve with the community’s feedback.”
