8 Hours Till Dawn release date

ConfirmedGamePC

Play 8 Hours Till Dawn solo, or with up to five other friends, a survival party game where you plan out your actions and movements ahead of time. Navigate your survivor to the center room to grab a weapon then make it to an outer room with a window and hopefully stop the infected. Can you last 8 hours till dawn? During each in-game "hour" you will plan your actions using the 8 Action cards you draw under a timer. This timer gives you the same amount of time every round, but as the night goes on, the decisions stack up, the horde keeps growing, and the weight of every choice gets heavier. Harder difficulties give you even less time.
