About the game

Fight overwhelming odds to escape a secret TranStar moon base where the enemies you encounter, the hazards you face, the goals you complete, and the loot you collect are different each time you play. With changing environments as dangerous as they are dynamic, the Mooncrash campaign for Prey will offer a fun, infinitely replayable...

Minimum specs

The value story

The lowest price on record is $7.99, set in February 2021. 18 discounts in the 8 years on record, a median of 70 percent off across all of them, roughly 5 weeks apart.

It is pricier than 96 percent of its genre, and less well reviewed than 99 percent. STAR WARS™: Squadrons ($39.99, scores 14) outscores it, and so does Overload ($29.99, scores 61). Both sit among its closest neighbours.

What players say

I don't think anyone plays this game anymore. Ports were open. I sat there for 45 mins while it tried to find me other players. SO stupid. Waste of my money.

Whoever greenlit Redfall should've played this first (Review after 100%, took me 20 hours with a lot of afk. No gamebreaking bug was encountered, beside the black hole of fun this thing is) This one was a slog. A game simply created to fill a marketing check box. Very boring and uninspired gameplay, human vs mimics. Graphics are a step down from single player, physics are basically absent. The only human weapons...

Prey: Typhon Hunter is an unusual and polarizing multiplayer spin-off that reimagines the unsettling ideas of Prey's single-player campaign into a tense game of deception and deduction. Developed by Arkane Studios and published by Bethesda Softworks, it takes one of the most memorable mechanics from the original game-the Mimics' ability to disguise themselves as everyday objects-and builds an entire competitive...
