🚧 Introducing VEIN: The Ultimate Zombie Survival Sandbox 🚧
October 24, 2025 — Gear up, survivors! VEIN (also known as Vain) has officially launched on Steam Early Access, bringing an ultra-realistic, multiplayer, first-person experience to the post-apocalyptic genre. 🎮🔥 Often dubbed a "First Person Project Zomboid," VEIN challenges players to scavenge, defend, and rebuild amid a world overrun by zombies and societal collapse. With a launch price of $17.99 USD (during an introductory 10% discount from $19.99), early reviews are flooding in with a "Very Positive" rating! ⭐
🛠️ A Dedication to Development & Future Expansion Plans 🛠️
VEIN's journey is driven by passion: Ramjet Studios bootstrapped the game entirely, investing countless hours into crafting a detailed survival experience. 🚀 The current playable map spans approximately 4x4 km, but the team’s ambitious vision aims to expand this to an expansive 14x14 km world in future updates.
🌍 Explore a Dynamic & Realistic World 🌍
Set in the picturesque Champlain Valley, New York, VEIN offers a living, breathing environment that changes with the seasons and random events. Players can uncover diverse locations, including rural towns, suburban neighborhoods, iconic landmarks like churches, and even a maximum security prison.
Interactivity is highly granular—players can open mailboxes, turn faucets, or drink directly from sinks, making every interaction meaningful in the survival landscape.
🛡️ Deep Survival Mechanics & Character Customization 🛡️
VEIN doesn’t hold back on realism. Its detailed RPG stats and leveling system let players customize their experience from the start. Choose an occupation—such as Firefighter, Thief, or Unemployed/Drifter—and pick three initial specialties like Lockpicking, Vitality, or Strength.
As you perform actions—searching buildings, fighting, or crafting—your skills improve, ensuring that survival is a constant challenge requiring strategy and adaptation. Long-term survival hinges on managing vital stats and making smart choices about resources and base defense.
