After spending a few months on Steam Early Access, The Flame in the Flood has an official release date: February 24, 2016 on PC and Xbox One.

A new trailer for the Southern gothic survival roguelike shows off some handy wildlife tips.

The Flame in the Flood is set in the rickety backwaters of a post-society America. As the player character Scout, accompanied by her dog Aesop, you'll have to scavenge for supplies, craft items, and keep on moving down river to survive the constant threats of starvation, dehydration, and cold.

Our preview of The Flame in the Flood from last March called it both challenging and complex while remaining accessibly manageable. Be sure to check out our let's play of The Flame in the Flood for a look at the upcoming game in action.
