Gamers step into the shoes of a Volunteer were they are tasked with investigating various anomalies including monsters, madmen and strange weather patterns.

Desolate is a beautifully drawn world full of several environments to explore including desolate settlements, military bases and even secret facilities to uncover. It is up to you to piece together the puzzles of the island by gathering items from the settlers who previously inhabited it through notes, diaries and more.

In order to take on the threats around you, you must research the creatures that are around the island of Granichny in order to do critical damage and gain an advantage during hardcore battles. Your chances are better if you join a 4-player team in order to reap the various abilities available like reviving other teammates.
