About
You stand at the dawn of human history. It is an age when fire has just been discovered, language is beginning to form, and every breath is a struggle for survival.
In Primal Survival, you are not always the hunter; most of the time, you are the hunted.
The game takes you back roughly 2.5–3 million years, into a wild world filled with life from mammoths and crocodiles to birds and small rodents.
Hunt, adapt, and experience the era when early humans first discovered fire, tools, and thought itself.
Evolution begins here. Survival is the first instinct of humanity.
Predators stalk, prey flees, and the world breathes.
Hundreds of species coexist within this ecosystem. Some hunt you, others run from you.
Mammoths migrate, crocodiles guard rivers, birds take flight, and rodents scatter in panic.
Every creature behaves differently; in this world, life and death constantly shift places.
Form your own tribe or encounter others. Trade, fight, or unite to survive against the harshness of nature. Primitive communication and early belief systems form the foundation of human culture.
Hunt with primitive weapons, set traps, or drive your prey off cliffs. The ways of survival depend on your creativity. As you endure, your intelligence grows; you discover new recipes, abilities, knowledge, and learn to tame animals.
Dynamic snowstorms, sandstorms, and heatwaves. Warm yourself by the fire, seek shelter from the rain, and endure the scorching sun.
