POLYARIS is a first-person single-player Arctic survival game where players must endure the harsh north by skiing, boating, scavenging supplies, and managing their basic needs.
Players must stay warm, dry, and hydrated while exploring isolated environments, looting abandoned locations, and finding a way to escape. The game is aimed at fans of survival experiences such as The Long Dark and similar atmospheric survival titles.
The open demo takes place in a Norway-inspired Arctic location and introduces players to the game’s core survival mechanics through approximately 40–60 minutes of gameplay. Players are intentionally given minimal guidance and must rely on exploration, resource management, environmental awareness, and scattered clues to survive. The current demo build is focused on collecting player feedback related to bugs, gameplay balance, progression, and overall experience ahead of the game’s full release.
POLYARIS was also recently featured by IGN alongside the launch trailer reveal.
