Blind Descent is an open-world survival game from Pokuch, published by META Publishing. A four-person expedition descends a newly opened mine on Mars, the elevator fails, and the surface goes silent. Beneath the Martian crust is a living ecosystem: jungle, weather, and creatures that react to what you do to them.
Early Access begins on December 2, 2026 across Steam, GOG and the Epic Games Store. Launch scope covers exploration, a base built out of an abandoned research facility, tool crafting and part of the campaign; 1.0 is planned to add biomes, creatures and mechanics on top of that.
This wiki pulls together what the store page, the official announcements and the playtest build establish: the schedule, how co-op is structured, how crafting and infection work, and the answers players look for in the first hour.
