Our take on The Savana
The pitch foregrounds a large savanna and an ecosystem shaped by player choices, but the game is still in development. Its clearest practical qualifier is that the current survival mode is not a full version, so the expansive setting should not be mistaken for a finished experience.
What is The Savana?
The Savana is an online multiplayer survival game set in a third-person, open-world savanna.
Its map is described as 60 km². There is no specific objective: players must find food and water while predators also hunt for food, so a player can shift from hunter to prey. The game presents the ecosystem as responsive to player decisions, with mistakes carrying severe consequences. The project is still in development, and updates are being made to add content. The current version is not presented as a complete survival mode; players seeking a full version are explicitly advised not to purchase it at this stage. The developer invites interested players to follow progress through Discord.
