The Day Before gameplay

The Day Before is an intense open-world survival MMO set in an apocalyptic zombie-style America (feeling much like The Last of Us), where your sole purpose is to stay alive by finding food, weapons, and cars.

The game is set primarily around resource collecting and exploration but does contain both PVE and PVP, meaning players will need to keep an eye on their surroundings at all times.

Along with the tense and action-heavy gameplay, the setting is primarily a New York-style cityscape with a sprinkling of forest and darker landscapes complete with beautiful graphics and even moodier lighting.

What platforms will The Day Before release on?

Currently, as of the game’s new release date announcement, The Day Before survival MMO will be available for the PlayStation 5, Xbox Series X/S, and PC.

There is yet to be any word regarding a Steam Deck, Nintendo Switch, or Mac release.
