Press release:
London, UK, 11th December 2025 – The wait is finally over as VR survival fans can now enjoy the official launch of Neolithic Dawn for Meta Quest 2, 3 & 3S.

Originally beginning life five years ago as a PC VR title, Neolithic Dawn saw its first public release as an Early Access game for Meta Quest in the Summer of 2025. After months of updates from the Neolithic team, Neolithic Dawn delivers a VR survival adventure like no other.

Set in 10,000 BC, North America – with locations inspired by the region – in Neolithic Dawn, you are a hunter-gatherer who learns that your lineage is on a great quest. But this cannot be achieved in one lifetime, as the prehistoric era is filled with many dangers. Using a unique multi-generational permadeath system, death is not the end, as you’ll be reborn 20 years later. This can lead to many lives being lived and centuries passing.

To survive this harsh and unpredictable climate, you’ll have to craft tools and weapons by hand, explore vast open maps and hunt dangerous beasts. Balance key elements like hunger, thirst, energy and warmth to stay alive, building fires for warmth and to cook food. Animals can be hunted but they can also be tamed, providing a valuable companion on your journey.

Neolithic Dawn v1.0 Key Features:

Multi-generational Permadeath – Death is not the end, only a new beginning as you become your descendant

Innovative Tutorial – Learn how to survive by becoming your ancestor and having to protect yourself as a baby!

Realistic Challenges – Carefully balance Hunger, Thirst, Energy, and Warmth in order to survive each day

Crafting – Use resources from the environment to build tools and weapons to feed and protect yourself

Master the Environment – Encounter deadly prehistoric beasts that can either be killed or tamed

Social Prehistory – Take on these harsh lands with friends in 4-player co-op or hang out around the campfire and be social

Neolithic Dawn is available now on the Horizon Store for Meta Quest, priced at $19.99 USD/£9.99 GBP. To mark the occasion, a 25% launch discount is available during the first week, joining other VR games in the Horizon Store Holiday Sale.

A PC VR edition is available on Steam, which is currently in early access.
