2022: The era of AI has arrived. The world is in chaos after a prototype combat robot - banned by law and awaiting secure destruction by XERA Corporation - became self-aware, escaped and began replication on an industrial scale. Failed attempts to remotely shut down the AI simply triggered a war that humanity could not afford to lose.
Nation turned on nation in a fight for control over resources to defend against the robots. With the attention of the world’s military elsewhere, disenfranchised operatives have gathered to ransack what was left of the XERA facilities, setting up two forward operating bases, Safe Zones on each side of the forest that was the hiding place for mankind’s greatest failure of leadership.
Between these bases there are no rules of engagement. The only imperative is survival.
XERA: Survival is developed by Spotted Kiwi Interactive, an independent development company based in the deep south of New Zealand (Aotearoa) with team members around the world: 4 in NZ, 1 in Chile, 1 in Russia and 1 in USA.

What Steam players say
Recent verbatim reviews from Steam — separate from playze.io community reviews below.
The game is great, but the players are to put it bluntly complete idiots they use cheats, and the admins tolerate it because those players pour money into the game, so they’ll never take action against them. I ended up uninstalling the game because of them it’s a shame, considering the hours and passion I invested in it.1 found this helpful

XERA: Survival is a surprisingly fun open world survival shooter that mixes PvP, PvE, base building, and looting into one experience. The atmosphere is one of its strongest points. Exploring abandoned towns, military compounds, and forests while constantly wondering if another player is watching you creates a lot of tension. The gunplay feels solid, and scavenging for better gear is rewarding. I also like that you can build bases and store loot, giving you a reason to keep coming back. The AI enemies provide enough challenge when other players aren't around, so the world rarely feels empty. That said, the game isn't perfect. It can be pretty grindy, the player population isn't always high, and you'll occasionally run into bugs or balance issues. New players may also find the learning curve a little steep. Overall, XERA: Survival is worth trying if you enjoy survival games with high-risk exploration and unpredictable player encounters. It has rough edges, but it offers plenty of memorable moments when everything comes together. CPU: Intel i5-9400F GPU: RX 6700 10GB RAM: 32GB DDR4-3600 Storage: 1TB SSD, 18TB HDD1 found this helpful
