DEADCLAIM

Claim the wasteland. Hold what's yours.

A hardcore extraction survival shooter set in a scavenged apocalypse. Raid, scavenge, extract — or lose it all.

// Operation Briefing

The world fell. The convoys stopped. What's left is yours to take — if you can hold it.

DEADCLAIM drops you into a contested frontier where every raid is a gamble. Scavenge for gear, fight AI and the storm, and reach the extract alive. Bank your haul, upgrade your outpost, and go again — or lose everything you carried in.

Field Capabilities

Built for the hard runs

No filler systems. Every mechanic in DEADCLAIM exists to make a single run tense, readable, and worth replaying.

High-Stakes Extraction

Drop into contested zones with whatever you can carry. Fight, scavenge, and reach the extract before the storm — or another raider — ends your run. Die and you lose it all.

Build Your Outpost

Bank your hauls, craft gear, and fortify a home base between raids. Every successful extraction compounds — turn scavenged scrap into a war machine.

A Living War Economy

Per-NPC vendors, loyalty discounts, and a gear-tier progression that rewards the bold. Trade with the Gunsmith, Medic, Chef, and Quartermaster to outfit your next run.

Run Your Own Server

Download the dedicated server.exe and host the wasteland your way — private squads, custom rules, full control. No middleman, no subscription.

Hand-Built Frontier

Explore a dense, atmospheric frontier stitched from ruined towns and apocalyptic outposts. Learn the map, master the routes, own the high ground.

Hardcore by Design

Permadeath stakes, weighty gunplay, and AI that hits back. DEADCLAIM respects your time by making every decision matter.
