The Day Before - New trailer reveals release date

The Day Before is an open-world MMO survival game set in a post-apocalyptic America. The world has been ravaged by a devastating pandemic and hordes of zombies now roam the streets of the country. America is overrun by flesh-hungry infected and the survivors kill each other for food, weapons, and cars.

Latest on The Day Before

It's been relatively quiet on the development front for upcoming zombie survival MMO The Day Before for several months now. In the latest trailer, the game's developer, Fntastic, has revealed some new features that will allow fans to get to grips with some of the MMO-like aspects of the game.

Diana Weng, CBO of the game's publisher MYTONA, as well as Fntastic founders Aisen and Ed Gotovtsev, took to the camera to reveal some of the key elements of The Day Before that are on show in the footage. The main focus of the discussion revolved around a shared area in the city where players can meet up with others, exchange supplies, and generally relax.

This sort of safe zone is commonplace in MMOs and looks to be a welcome respite from the tense survival environments that The Day Before will offer its players. The trailer also gives a glimpse of the beautifully appointed interior of a multi-story shopping mall, which is just one of the many environments that fans will be able to explore in the game. The game will also feature options for base building and weapon customization for players who don't want to be too restricted by the urban fortresses.

The Day Before - Official Release Trailer

The trailer mentions the PS5 and Xbox Series X and S as platforms for The Day Before. Fntastic had previously expressed the desire to release the game on home consoles.

However, the trailer makes it clear that this will not be a cross-generation title and will only be available on the latest console generation. Given the level of detail and graphical fidelity shown in the gameplay trailers, this makes sense as The Day Before seems quite demanding on the hardware.

The trailer also contains a confirmed release date for The Day Before. The game is due to release on June 21st, 2022, but there's a catch: it will only be available on PC at that time, with console versions to follow later. There have been many rumors about console versions of The Day Before, so the news that they are coming is certainly exciting, but console players have been mostly left in the dark.

Based on the footage shown so far, The Day Before seems to be in a good state, which raises the hope that the project will meet its original release date and that this will be a worthy successor to the previously known open-world MMO survival games, such as Days Gone, Fallout 76, Dying Light 2 and many more. You can follow in their footsteps.
