Developed by CABO Studio · Published by Modern Wolf
In a post-apocalyptic setting, you play a hunter venturing out from a bunker into the wasteland of Zakov. Across six areas, you search for supplies, take on bandits and mutated wildlife, pursue quests, and try to make it back alive.
Raids use top-down combat and procedurally generated maps, with layouts, loot locations, hiding spots, and weather that can vary. You choose what to carry and which weapons, ammunition, and protective gear to bring; hunger, thirst, and carrying weight also affect expeditions. The difficulty can be adjusted, including whether death costs you your carried equipment.
Back at the bunker, traders and workstations let you trade, craft, modify weapons, and develop your base. Quests and faction reputation advance your progress and open up new areas and equipment, while experience, weapon skills, and perks provide further ways to develop your hunter.
In the supplied reviews, players who enjoy ZERO Sievert often praise the tense risk-and-reward of scavenging and extracting, along with the satisfying cycle of bringing resources home to improve gear and the bunker. Weapon customization, the solo PvE format, and adjustable difficulty also appeal to some players. Opinions are divided: several reviews criticize the interface and inventory management, and some describe a sharp late-game difficulty spike or frustrating enemy accuracy.
Half a million players have stepped into the radioactive ruins, scavenged for precious loot, and fought tooth and nail to make it out alive. That number represents not just sales, but stories. Thousands of extraction runs, loadouts tested, factions faced, and unforgettable moments of survival and chaos.
For those who are making runs into the radioactive wasteland, THANK YOU! And for those of you thinking if you should join them, well, I know 600,000 reasons why you should...
Happy hunting...
The world has ended. ZERO Sievert charges you with scavenging equipment across multiple areas, all set in an atmospheric fictitious post-apocalyptic Eastern Europe setting. Your base of operations, the bunker, is filled with traders, modding stations, and areas to make your own, providing you with progression across your excursions into the wild.
Once you’re out in the wilds of the wasteland, however, the situation becomes a lot less secure. Across the six biomes of the game, you’ll initially be armed with little more than a gun and a bottle of water, after which point it’s up to you to recover items, take out bandits, and most importantly, get back alive.
And be warned; the nuclear fallout may have impacted some of the local wildlife…
With a complete new hunter experience, our tutorial takes you (loosely) by the hand and equips you with the knowledge, skills and guns you'll need to to survive and thrive in the world of ZERO Sievert.
Procedurally generated maps make every journey different, with ever-changing hiding spots, loot locations, weather, and layouts. With six maps to explore, be sure to adapt and learn each one's secrets to get in, get out, and get better.

As you survive the harsh wasteland you’ll gain experience, sharpening your skills and unlocking new ways to become a deadly hunter. The Weapon Skill System allows you to level up various weapon types, boosting stats such as reload speed, damage, movement speed, and even unlocking unique perks tailored to each weapon. Beyond weapon XP, you can level-up your hunter with unique perks to help navigate the wasteland, tackle tough challenges, and take on more enemies.
In Zakov you’ll encounter The Green Army, a group dedicated to maintaining law and order, or the Crimson Corporation, a global pharmaceutical and technology giant. As a hunter you can choose a faction, earn reputation, unlock unique faction quests, and collect special, high-tier loot to aid you in your journey throughout the wasteland!

Alongside this, there are more than 100 different items to loot which can be used to craft new items, upgrade your own base, and trade.
