Scavland, with a source on every number.
Scavland is days into Early Access. This site records the fields the publisher has actually published, each one stamped with where it came from and when it was read — and marks everything else as not published, rather than guessing.
What is not published
Seven things other Scavland pages state as fact and we do not, because the publisher has not released them. Each line names the field we checked and what it returned.
- Concurrent playersSteam’s player-count endpoint answers
HTTP 404for this app id. There is no number to quote, so we quote none. - MetacriticThe
metacritickey is absent from the store response entirely. Absent is not zero. - Exact wishlist countThe developer said
“over 100,000”on 2026-08-25. That is the whole figure we have. - Per-weapon damage, RPM, recoilNot in any official field. Numbers for these exist elsewhere; none of them came from the publisher.
- Faction rosterThe store text says
“different factions”and never names or counts them. - Attachment countOfficial wording is
“up to 6 modular modification points”. No total is stated. - Steam Deck verification
platformslists Windows only and the category list has no Deck entry. We did not find a verification status.
What is Scavland?
Scavland is a top-down pixel-art survival RPG set in Zalesye, a post-apocalyptic Soviet world ravaged by war and by something the game calls the Mist. You play a Vulture — a scavenger living on what the old world left behind — exploring abandoned settlements, taking jobs, and fighting mutants, hostile survivors and radiation. Ammunition is scarce, weapons can jam, and preparation decides whether you come back with loot or do not come back.
It is made by NoShadow and published by NoShadow · UNSUBSCRIBE, and entered Steam Early Access on Sep 4, 2026 at $19.99, discounted 10% to $17.99 at launch. The archived store listing currently shows Windows only, ships in ten languages — Chinese is not among them — has full controller support and 44 achievements.
Fields this paragraph is built from: short_description · about_the_game · developers · publishers · release_date · genres · price_overview · platforms · supported_languages · controller_support · achievements.total — eleven fields, all from the same archived store response · data.short_description · store.steampowered.com · read 2026-09-05T03:11:14Z · sha256 b9b399dd562aba5c
Global achievement rates
Six highest and six lowest of the 44; the full table lives on Achievements. We show the API’s own key and its own number and nothing else — the endpoint returns no descriptions, so any reading of what INDOOR_TYPE means would be ours, not the publisher’s.
| Achievement key | Global rate | Share |
|---|---|---|
| INDOOR_TYPE | 65.3% | |
| HOARDER | 52.6% | |
| NEVER_QUITTER | 34.6% | |
| THE_KEEPER_OF_MIST | 33.0% | |
| MISERY_BUSINESS | 23.7% | |
| SNOB_OF_THE_APOCALYPSE | 18.8% | |
| SOMETHING_CALLS | 0.0% | |
| SPELUNKER | 0.0% | |
| THE_CYCLE_WILL_REPEAT | 0.0% | |
| THE_ROAD_TO_PARADISE | 0.0% | |
| TOTAL_CONFIDENCE | 0.0% | |
| ULTRAVIOLENCE | 0.0% |
The API returns these as one-decimal strings. Any extra decimals you see elsewhere on the web are formatting, not precision. All 44 rows →
What Zalesye looks like
6 of 13 official screenshots, each archived alongside the store response it came from. They are the publisher’s images, shown with attribution and resized, not edited.
People playing it
7 candidate videos passed all three checks — oEmbed answers, the thumbnail is not YouTube’s grey placeholder, and the video actually permits embedding. 1 was rejected, on purpose: a deliberately fake id went into the batch so the check is proven to reject something rather than merely to pass everything. Nothing loads from YouTube until you click.

These are other people’s videos, linked and credited. Titles, durations and view counts are as read at capture time and will drift; we do not restate them as current.
1 pages so far, and what each one stands on
The count on each card is the number of ledger entries that page is built from, generated at build time from the route manifest rather than typed in.
Official announcements
Everything a single count=10 request returned. 5 items came back. That is not proof the developer has published only that many, and the gap between two of these dates is not proof of silence — it would take a paginated response to say either, and we do not have one.

Launch questions
Seven answers. Two of them are “we do not know”, and they stay that way until we can archive a source.
Can I play Scavland on mobile or Android?
Not on this store listing. The platforms object flags Windows only; mac and linux are both false. That is a statement about this Steam record — we have not checked other storefronts.
Is there a Chinese translation?
No. Ten languages ship and Chinese is not among them.
Is 8 GB of RAM enough?
It meets the stated minimum. The recommended tier asks for 12 GB, and memory is the only field that differs between the two tiers.
Is the game finished?
No. Early Access is one of its five listed genres.
How much does it cost?
$19.99, currently 10% off at $17.99 on the US store.
Is the demo still available?
We do not know. An announcement dated 2025-06-09 says a demo went live; we have not checked whether it is still on the store page today.
Where is the official Discord?
We have not found a link we can stand behind. The store response carries no Discord field, and we will not publish an invite we have not tested.
