Population Zero.

Population Zero starts its sci-fi MMO adventure on May 5

Enplex Games announced today that its upcoming sci-fi MMO Population Zero will launch on Steam Early Access on May 5.

Population Zero is an MMO that focuses on exploration and survival. It also stands out by having a win condition. Every seven days, life on the game’s planet, Kepler, becomes unlivable. Players need to build a haven that can survive the disaster. If they fail, players start over (although some progression will carry over to their new lives). So the experience also has a roguelike element to it, something that MMOs don’t often tinker with.
