Dead Matter Dev Tracker

We hear you loud and clear as well about wondering when and where you will be able to purchase the game!

You will be able to when we launch on Steam Early Access later this year. Keep an eye on our social channel and Discord for updates.

🚨 PSA to our players about third-party buyers and keys! 🚨

We recommend you do not purchase a key from an unofficial source. These keys will only give you Closed Alpha access and, we have received reports of scamming.

More info:

Our local go-kart track is a great way to celebrate birthdays or any special occasion!

We are currently closed however due to... unforeseen circumstances. 🧟

(Note: try driving them off the track! We're not gonna miss 'em.)

There are a few stories behind the name of Dead Man's Flats.

Some people think it's from a murder in 1904, while others think it's from trappers who covered themselves in beaver blood and pretended to be dead.

Either way, it's a fitting place to slaughter some undead. ☠️

Western Canada has lots of rolling farmland, wide plains, and open landscape. 🏞️

We've recreated this vastness in "Dead Matter" as well, so be sure to stock up before you leave town! It might be awhile until the next one.

Armor in Dead Matter was previously cosmetic but with 0.60, it now affects gameplay. Armor now absorbs a set percentage of damage done to limbs that it covers.

It also provides additional carry capacity. Keep an eye out and stay protected!

The team behind "Dead Matter" is proudly Canadian 🇨🇦, recreating our beautiful home for you to explore.

Keep an eye out for some great Canadiana hidden throughout, as we pay homage to our quirks and landmarks.

Even in the undead apocalypse, you need to make time for crafts.

New in 0.6.0: To craft an item, simply drag and drop your ingredients into the recipe. then drag the crafted item out of the recipe and into your inventory.

There's nothing like the beautiful Albertan landscape to relax and unplug. 🌄

Just... watch out for the infected. 👁️

One of the best spots to find the tools to survive or to hunker down are the local RCMP stations.

You may also known them by their Mountie moniker, as they provide law enforcement services across Canada (for over 100 years!)

Update 0.60 will add two types of stamina to #DeadMatter!

Character Stamina drops when sprinting and recovers when still. 🏃‍♂️

Combat Stamina is used for melee attacks. 🪓

Keep an eye on both when choosing to fight or flee!
