Blight: Survival Opens Its Brutal Medieval World to Playtesters
Haenir Studio is inviting players to participate in the early playtesting phase of Blight: Survival, their new cooperative extraction-lite game set in a brutal alternate 14th century. With rogue-lite elements and a dark, war-torn setting, the game challenges players to fight, scavenge, and survive in a land where the dead don’t stay buried.

The game is set in a forsaken no man’s land between two warring kingdoms. A new, twisted form of the Blight has taken root here, reanimating fallen soldiers into terrifying monsters. The result is a battlefield where every fight could be your last, and every decision has consequences.

- Rogue-lite structure: Each run forces a choice between pushing deeper or retreating with your loot.
