About Scav
Scav is a looter-shooter with survival gameplay developed by Cannabusy. Released on August 28, 2025, it’s available on PC. The game drops you into quarantined zones to scavenge for loot while battling enemies and zombies. You gear up in a safezone, fight to survive, and extract before a timed nuke wipes the area. The genre leans into fast-paced combat and resource management. Multiplayer and co-op modes let you team up or compete. It’s a stripped-down, action-focused take on the looter-shooter formula with a focus on quick matches and high risk.
Gameplay
In Scav, you start each session by choosing gear in the safezone, then jump into a map to scavenge. You’ll loot buildings for weapons, armor, and consumables while avoiding NPCs and hordes of zombies. Combat is twitchy, with cover mechanics and limited ammo. Extraction is a race against a countdown that triggers a nuke if you’re not out in time. Multiplayer adds PvP elements, with players targeting each other for loot. Co-op lets you team up to survive waves. The maps are dense with hazards like traps and hostile factions. You’ll spend most sessions balancing aggression with caution, trading kills for gear while managing health and stamina.
What Players Think
PlayPile users rate Scav 4.3/5, with 78% critic approval. Average playtime is 14.5 hours, and 23% of players complete the game. Community moods lean Competitive (28%) and Nostalgic (19%), but 15% call it Frustrating. Review snippets praise the "fast but punishing" combat and "great looting system," though some note it's "grindy for late-game gear." 42% of players own all achievements, with "Nuke Dodger" being the rarest at 11% completion. The game’s 2v2 co-op mode has a 68% win rate among top teams.
PlayPile's Take
Scav works best for fans of aggressive looter-shooters who enjoy short, high-stakes matches. The $39.99 price is fair for the core loop, but the grind for top-tier gear may deter casual players. With 150+ achievements, it offers replayability for completionists. Not the deepest in the genre, but its speed and co-op mode make it a solid choice for competitive players. Prioritize it if you want quick action over slow-burn storytelling.
