Brazil's Pioneering RTS Outlive Returns with Global Release Via Criticalleap

Continuum Entertainment, founded in 1998, developed the original Outlive. The studio gained international recognition with Outlive, which was released in 2000 during a period of popularity for RTS games. The title is considered a pioneering milestone for Brazil, both within the RTS genre and the national game development industry. Even during its development, Outlive attracted significant attention from the community and press, generating anticipation as one of the earliest Brazilian games with global market potential. The original Outlive also attracted the attention of a major publisher, Take-Two Interactive, the company behind Grand Theft Auto. Take-Two Interactive distributed Outlive in North American and European markets, helping to position Brazil on the global game development scene. Criticalleap, the publishing arm of Nuuvem, the official gamestore of Latin America, is bringing Outlive 25 to players.

Official Name: Outlive
Brief Summary: It all started when biohazard safety issues at the state facility prompted the government to shut it down for months, a spokesman told TV News. The statement said the problems date back to several months ago, when a storm destroyed the steam autoclave sterilization plant that processed the waste. There was no biological threat to public health, it was unlikely to spread widely. But that was not true. The threat spread across the country. Disease and mutation spread among the population. Most channels carried the government's announcement but started studio debates, videos and live broadcasts from the country. You will play as Peter, who embarks on a journey to prove that the disease and mutations that spread among the population, were not an accident as the news suggested. Peter made his research and though he might know where the government's labs and bases that made the virus were. While traveling on his journey, Peter gets into an accident and has to search in the woods for help, but there was something unexpected waiting to be discovered. In a world where weapons are nonexistent, survive the harsh environment using your observational skill, intelligence, and patience. Will it be enough? That's up to you. Outlive is a first-person survival horror game, set in a post-apocalyptic world after a virus infected most of the population. You are determined to prove that the virus was not an accident, but rather planned and released by the government. You will go out on a journey to find the lab's and collect evidence. The only chance of survival is to use your speed and agility to outsmart your enemies, solve puzzles and make your way to safety after collecting all the evidence.
