Survive & Escape in this 8-person multiplayer game of Teamwork & Betrayal.In-game player communication is a key element to playing the game, in which no one can be trusted,” said Hale. “ Unlike other survival games which you must stay alive to win, in Project Winter you require the cooperation of other players to help you make it out alive. This is a game where you meet up with friends and either work together or destroy them,” explains Ryan Hale, Studio Head, Other Ocean interactive. “ Project Winter is not just a survival genre game, it also has an element of player deception. Communication and teamwork are essential to the survivors’ ultimate goal of escape. Beware of traitors within the group who will be steadily gaining strength as the match progresses and whose only goal is to stop the survivors by any means necessary. Players must gather resources, repair structures, and brave the wilderness together. Project Winter is an 8-person, multiplayer game focused on social deception and survival where players are randomly assigned to the role of Traitor or Survivor.
