Edge of the Wild is a single-player, third-person, survival-adventure game set on a breathtaking but dangerous Alaskan island, inspired by games like the original Tomb Raider series and Ark: Survival Evolved.
Step into the rugged boots of Sara Avalon as an intrepid nature photographer. Dropped off on a frigid, remote island, your mission is to capture the beauty of it's wildlife through your lens, but also survive against dynamically changing weather, dangerous animals, and perilous terrain.
While there, she discovers a relic of an ancient civilization that attempted to flee disaster before a great disaster. It pulls her into an epic adventure of survival where she has to struggle to stay alive and find a way back home.
