I love the premise of The Forever Winter. In a bleak, post apocalyptic future, not dissimilar in appearance to the ruined cityscapes of Terminator, the final remnants of humanity are hunted by gigantic, building-high mechs that seemingly want to use our flesh for fuel. First revealed earlier this year, the new survival game looks like a cross between Fallout, Armored Core 6, DayZ, and Silent Hill. Now, The Forever Winter Steam Early Access launch date is confirmed, and developer Fun Dog has explained its matter-of-fact, industry-defying approach to microtransactions. Do you long for a world where you pay a single flat fee and get to keep the game and everything that's in it forever? So, apparently, do the makers of The Forever Winter.
