Hiraeth changes
Last chance to get HIRAETH at a record-low price!
Step into the world of Ahra Prime and discover one of the most ambitious, realistic, and demanding sci-fi survival games on Steam. Right now, HIRAETH is 30% off during the Winter Sale — and this is likely the last chance before regional prices are updated to the base value of 25 USD after the sale ends.

🜁 Deep, System-Driven Sci‑Fi Survival
Not another clone — a completely new take on the genre
HIRAETH is made for players who want more. This is not a typical survival game. It’s a systemic sci-fi sandbox, closer to a survival simulator than to traditional genre titles.
Discover unique mechanics you won’t find anywhere else:
realistic resource management,
dynamic weather affecting the world and items,
complex crafting and simulation systems,
fully dynamic lighting, day/night cycle, and weather effects,
a world that reacts to your actions.
It’s a game that rewards attention, logical thinking, and patience. If you enjoy games that don’t hold your hand, HIRAETH is for you.
🧭 Story Mode + Sandbox
First quests already available — and this is just the beginning
HIRAETH is growing fast. The first quests and story elements were added recently, and the world of Ahra Prime will continue to expand, multiplying the total playtime many times over.
This is the perfect moment to jump in and learn the systems before the world becomes much larger.
🎯 What Makes ☵ HIRAETH Unique?
unique, realistic survival systems,
stunning UE5 visuals (DLSS, FSR coming soon),
a sandbox evolving into a full story-driven experience,
high skill ceiling with huge satisfaction,
active development shaped by community feedback,
weekly updates.
This is a passion project — built by one developer and shaped together with the community.
🖥️ System Requirements — Important!
HIRAETH is demanding — both for the player and the hardware. For the best experience, RTX 30xx+ or AMD equivalents are recommended.
Important: Minimum Steam requirements do not guarantee high settings or stable performance.
The game uses several heavy systems, including:
fully dynamic lighting,
day/night cycle,
advanced weather effects,
environmental impact on items and terrain,
continuous world loading and rendering.
Despite this, performance is comparable to leading games with similar rendering quality.
Check out the demo (update coming soon!) to see how your PC handles it.
