What players say

In brief: Solid horror shooter, with co-op, multiple game modes, and much more under the surface. If you've enjoyed killing floor, classic doom, and skill-based PvE where almost every single decision matters in one way or another, then you might be here for awhile. In more words: Unloved is a game that hates you. It wants you to die, and everything you do while playing feeds into its burning desire for your death...

About the game

Play coop with your friends, increase your skills, mod your weapons and face the horror that this unearthly place holds...
