What is SCUM like?

You're prisoners dropped on a 225 km² island for a TV show, scavenging food, weapons and vehicles while puppets (reanimated contestants), armed mechs and other players hunt you. The game simulates metabolism, so what you eat and how tired you get change what your body can do.

Can you play SCUM split screen or online?

SCUM has no split screen or local co-op on PC: each player needs their own device, and up to 10 can play together online. Everyone needs their own copy.
