A Routine Hike Turns Into Survival Horror
An upcoming co-op survival horror game is starting to catch attention among Pinoy gamers after we featured it on the GamingPH Facebook page. Deadhikers drops players into a remote wilderness where a simple hiking trip spirals into a tense fight for survival. Unlike many survival titles that focus on building permanent bases or fortifying safe zones, this one removes that layer of security entirely. Players are forced to keep moving, set up temporary camps, manage limited supplies, and navigate forests, swamps, and steep terrain while dealing with an unseen threat that turns the environment itself into the main source of tension. The game is currently listed on Steam with its release date still marked as to be announced.
GamingPH Community Weighs In
After our post went live, the comment section quickly filled with reactions from our community. Many pointed out that the lack of permanent base building makes the experience feel more stressful compared to traditional survival games where players can eventually secure a safe area. Others immediately saw its potential as a barkada title, saying it looks like the kind of co-op experience where communication and teamwork will make or break the group. Some joked that it appears like a peaceful hiking simulator at first glance before the horror elements slowly creep in, while a few shared cautious optimism, hoping the final release delivers polished gameplay and smooth performance.
One to Watch for Co-Op Fans
From what we’ve seen so far, Deadhikers leans heavily into atmosphere, isolation, and teamwork rather than action-heavy combat. Its core idea of constant movement and shared survival pressure gives it a different rhythm compared to other co-op survival games in the market. For players who enjoy tense sessions that test coordination and friendship under pressure, this is shaping up to be a title worth monitoring. We’ll continue following its development and share updates once more details, including a release date, are confirmed.
