Chinese developer Hero Games has announced its upcoming game, CrisisX, a post-apocalyptic open-world survival crafting game set for release in Q2 2026 on PC (Steam) and mobile devices (Android, iOS).
In CrisisX, players can explore an expansive 1,200-km² open world alongside up to 5,000 other players. The map features 12 distinct terrains, including Western-style towns, hidden laboratories, and snowy mountaintops. Each area is rich with unique items, vegetation, resources, and wild animals for discovery, collection, and hunting.
The combat system in CrisisX offers a variety of weapons such as machetes, crossbows, pistols, sniper rifles, machine guns, RPGs, and grenades. Players will need these to fend off dangerous zombie-like Infected NPCs, including hordes and ‘Titan mutants’. They can also build armored vehicles like M2 Bradleys or WWII-era M4 Sherman tanks to fight over vital resources like oil wells.
To survive in this harsh world, players may join forces with teams, groups, and communes to seize strategic resource points and expand their territories. While unity offers a better chance of survival against Infected Hordes and brutal elements, it can also lead to larger, more intense turf wars between rival groups. Beyond combat, players must manage their characters’ hunger, thirst, and health; every physical activity impacts their strength and attributes.
