Serum Enters Early Access on Steam Today May 23 Survive Thrive Inject and Explore

Posted on May 23, 2024August 11, 2025 By Ronny Fiksdahl

SERUM is now available in PC Early Access on Steam as of May 23, 2024, priced at $24.99 / €24.99 / £19.99. A 20% launch discount will be available for the first two weeks until June 6, 2024.

A Survival Game Against Time

SERUM drops players into a dangerous, infected world where survival hinges on a mysterious elixir — the serum. This vital substance must be injected regularly to stave off infection, granting temporary reprieve and enhancing abilities.

Against a relentless ticking clock, players will explore shattered environments, hunt mutated creatures, and set traps to harvest ingredients for crafting life-saving serum recipes. Each formula unlocks unique skills and abilities to help overcome dangerous enemies and environmental hazards.

Exploration, Crafting, and Survival Mechanics

Dark Narrative and Government Conspiracy

Uncover the origins of the Blight, a deadly infection threatening humanity, while piecing together a government conspiracy. Along the way, discover hidden clues and lore to understand the catastrophe that reshaped the world.

Crafting for Survival

Harvest resources from the environment and the creatures that roam it. Craft weapons, traps, and gadgets to gain the upper hand against mutated adversaries while managing your time and resources carefully.

Dynamic Combat and Strategy

Plan your encounters carefully — from stealth approaches to direct confrontation. Upgrade your arsenal and adapt your tactics to survive increasingly dangerous foes.
