About Leviathan
Leviathan is a 2025 PC shooter from Dream Foundry Games that drops you into a chaotic conflict over the alien world of Domusalus. You play as one of three factions trying to seize control while fending off the relentless Kaecillian, a mysterious threat that escalates the danger. The game blends co-op, competitive multiplayer, and battle royale modes, with a focus on looting, gear customization, and tactical escapes. Set in a sci-fi warzone, it’s all about survival, resource management, and outlasting rivals. The August 2025 release date means it’s fresh but already has a small but vocal community. If you like fast-paced shooters with evolving objectives and team-based chaos, this one fits the bill.
Gameplay
Leviathan’s gameplay loops around deployment, scavenging, and extraction. Each match starts with selecting gear and deploying to a map segment, where you hunt for weapons, armor, and mods. The Kaecillian isn’t just an enemy faction, it actively alters the battlefield, collapsing zones and spawning hazards. Multiplayer matches pit teams against each other in objective-based combat, while the battle royale mode narrows the playing field every 15 minutes. Controls are twitch-focused, with a emphasis on movement and cover mechanics. The co-op mode lets you team up to tackle fortified bases, but trust is scarce, players can betray or abandon allies mid-match. Progression is tied to unlocking new gear and faction-specific abilities, though the loot system can feel grindy without clear rarity indicators.
What Players Think
PlayPile community ratings average 8.2/10, with 62% completion rate and 24 average play hours. Critics praise the dynamic combat but note inconsistent AI behavior, with one review calling it “a missed shot on polish.” Community moods skew 55% excited, 30% annoyed, and 15% indifferent. Players report frequent server lag in multiplayer, and the battle royale mode has a 48% dropout rate in its first week. A Reddit thread highlights the Kaecillian’s “spooky-good” level design but questions the lack of tutorial depth. Achievement data shows 50 total trophies, with 30% of players hitting the “Escape with Max Loot” milestone. Price remains unlisted, but early buyers on Steam pay $49.99, with 40% discounting it after launch.
PlayPile's Take
Leviathan is a solid but flawed shooter for fans of team-based chaos and loot-driven progression. The Kaecillian threat adds a nice layer of urgency, but bugs and balancing issues hold it back. At $49.99, it’s a decent risk if you want to try something different, though $20-$30 discounts later might be wiser. The co-op and battle royale modes are highlights, but solo play feels undercooked. With 50 achievements and 25+ hours of gameplay, it’s not a time sink, but it’s polished enough to justify a weekend. Skip if you hate RNG loot systems or laggy servers.
