Quick start

New to Blight: Survival? Follow these steps before your first session.

  1. 1

    Wishlist and follow official channels

    Add Blight: Survival on Steam, then join Discord and the Playtest Squad so you hear about closed and open tests as they open.

  2. 2

    Learn the combat fantasy

    Read our combat system and posture guides so directional melee, parries, and finishers feel familiar before you touch a controller.

  3. 3

    Plan a loadout mindset

    Weapons, armor, and talents define your Writhen. Study the builds hub to understand one-handed, dagger, and Zweihander tradeoffs already shown.

  4. 4

    Decide solo or co-op

    The full campaign works alone, but extraction-lite risk spikes with friends. Use the solo and co-op guides to set expectations.

  5. 5

    Track biomes and news

    Marshlands and other biomes keep getting in-engine reveals. Check Updates so your prep matches the latest footage.
