Into the Dead: Our Darkest Days changes
It’s been one year today since Into the Dead: Our Darkest Days launched into Early Access. We’ve had an incredible time working with you, our community, to add new content and features to the game. We’ve loved seeing your feedback, screenshots, suggestions and theories.
Around the end of 2025 we shared some interesting and amusing game stats, and wanted to do it again for the anniversary. So check out these numbers:
The team is hard at work developing content that was featured on our 2026 Roadmap, including the Traders system, which we know a lot of you are looking forward to.
We’re not quite ready to share everything about this system just yet, but we can share a little peek into the work-in-progress below and let you know that trading will allow survivors to trade items like food, ammo and weapons for supplies. Survivors will also be able to trade valuable items marked as ‘useful for trading’ that they might find when out scavenging. This means you’ll finally have a use for all those Expensive Watches in your shelter inventory…
This image is work-in-progress and not final.
We want to thank you again for joining us on our Early Access journey so far, and can’t wait to bring you more updates. If you’re enjoying the game, don’t forget to drop a review on Steam! It really helps us out.
