Dinosaur Survival Horror Game ‘Deathground’ Roars Into Early Access Today [Trailer]

The day’s finally arrived for Survival Horror fans looking to get their dinosaur fix with Jaw Drop Games’ Deathground. Out in Early Access on Steam, you can grab the game with a 15% launch discount until October 21. According to the devteam, Deathground will be in the service for approximately 8-12 months, though development will continue “until the community believes it’s reached the desired quality and depth for the full release.”

The team has also released the Early Access roadmap, which includes monthly “mini-updates” alongside a bigger Communications Update. No specific dates are available just yet.

The devteam stresses that this current version of Deathground is not representative of the final game, and that players may encounter some issues, which the team is working hard to resolve. Furthermore, feedback is essential, so join the Discord to report bugs and send feedback.

As for what’s included in this Early Access release, the game features two enemy AI types, two training maps and three main maps, six character classes and four loadout items.

Deathground is a solo and co-op survival horror title where players face off against AI-powered dinosaurs in abandoned research facilities overrun by prehistoric threats. Built in Unreal Engine 5, the game blends stealth, tension and squad-based tactics in intense, replayable missions. Regardless of solo or team play, survival depends on teamwork, quick thinking and raw instinct.
