As part of the Steam Next Fest, makers of the hit horror multiplayer game Dead by Daylight–Behaviour Interactive are inviting gamers to a “no strings attached” opportunity to take part in the open beta for their upcoming game, Meet Your Maker.
Meet Your Maker, which is expected to be released on April 4, 2023, is a post-apocalyptic first-person building-and-raiding game where every level is designed by players for players. In this dying world, players take on the role of a Custodian, servant to the Chimera: a living experiment created as a last resort to save life on Earth.
Sleep my precious Chimera…don’t you worry about a thing. | Behaviour Interactive
The Chimera requires a resource known as Genetic Material (GenMat) to evolve. This is where you and other players come in as you have to either build and fortify maze-like Outposts that extract and guard this coveted material or infiltrate and outsmart other players’ creations to gather more. The good thing is, you don’t have to do either activity alone; you can always form a team of two with a friend to build or raid outposts.
Extracting and investing GenMat will allow you to grow your arsenal of traps, guards, weapons, suits and more, which then means you can design more elaborate Outposts to outwit and kill trespassing players.
