What is Ardem?

When the RHAB-14 virus broke out, the world fell within weeks. Cities went silent, order collapsed, and humans transformed into restless, mutated creatures driven by hunger and rage.

Years later, civilization is nothing but a memory. Nature has reclaimed the land, power grids lie dormant, and every day is a fight for survival.

In Ardem, you decide who to trust, where to find shelter, and how to survive in a world where every breath is a risk.

Ardem is an immersive open-world survival RPG that takes you into a virus-ravaged, fully interactive world. Alone or with friends, explore abandoned places, gather resources, build bases, repair vehicles, and use electricity to revive the remnants of civilization—or let them fade forever.
