Step into the prehistoric world of Neolithic Dawn
Neolithic dawnThe virtual reality survival adventure that debuted in Early Access on Meta Quest this summer has received another makeover. Version 1.0 will officially release on December 11, 2025, marking a major milestone for the indie development team.
Over the course of six months of early access, the Neolithic Dawn team worked closely with players, gathering feedback to refine the gameplay and expand the survival options. The full version features many additions, including a new story introduction and improved interactive environmental elements. As well as a set of quality of life improvements. The developers redesigned the menu system for smoother navigation, making the official launch a remarkable achievement for the team.
Set in the breathtaking landscape of North America 10,000 BC, the game immerses players in a realistic, physics-based survival world. Craft tools and weapons by hand, climb dangerous cliffs, and explore expansive maps teeming with period-era wildlife. Players can hunt Ice Age creatures for food or tame them as companions while gathering resources needed to survive. Every choice matters, and death is not the end, but only the path to the next challenge.
“Neolithic Dawn has been constantly evolving with the community since its inception over 4 years ago,” said James Bellian, CEO of Neolithic LLC. “The team is excited to bring you version 1.0. Much like our player's multi-generational journey within Neolithic Dawn itself, this launch is a new beginning!”
Combining hardcore survival mechanics, realistic physics and a richly detailed prehistoric world, Neolithic Dawn 1.0 promises an unprecedented VR adventure that builds on the lessons of Early Access and delivers a deeper, more immersive experience than ever before.
