The pathogen that stripped humanity down to pure instinct was no accident.
The collapse of the world, set in motion by human will, proved irreversible. Many survived — but did all of them remain human? This is the story of a man who must overcome a series of trials to find his place in the coming chaos and preserve his humanity.
Pathogenesis: Overcome is a narrative-driven action RPG set in Russia during a global pandemic. The game blends hardcore gameplay, tactical combat, open-environment exploration, and survival elements. The world must be approached with caution — weapons and equipment are scarce, and the infected are far from the greatest threat. Armed survivors, forming violent groups and factions, pose a much greater danger.
Combat is not about fast clicks, but about planning and situational awareness. Ammunition is limited and has weight, weapons wear down, and a careless firefight can quickly lead to defeat. Not every conflict is worth engaging.
Using cover, terrain, and proper positioning is critical. A single bullet can be fatal, and a reckless dash into enemy fire may become the character’s final decision.
Direct control and an aiming mode provide freedom of movement and precise control in fast-changing combat situations.
Realistic ballistics, armor-piercing ammunition capable of penetrating cover, and a precision aiming system allow players to prevail even against numerically superior enemies.
An extensive arsenal of real-world firearms supports deep customization, enabling fine-tuning of ergonomics and accuracy. However, excessive attachments come at a cost — weapon weight and size directly affect the character’s mobility and handling.
