The feedback we got from players after we released the original game was overwhelming, which makes us all the more pleased to offer up Seed of Evil, the continuation of the Mutant Year Zero story.

Mutant Year Zero was released back in December 2018 and it was received with critical acclaim. The game sees players controlling a group of mutants who are searching through ruins of civilization for salvation and something to eat. The game combines strategic turn-based combat with stealth very effectively. Players evolve their characters as they journey through the world trying to save the last remains of the decent society from eradication.
Mutant Year Zero Seed of Evil is now available on PC, PS4, Xbox One, and Nintendo Switch.
