Black Survival: Eternal Return is an anime battle royale, keys for alpha test available

Black Survival: Eternal Return is an upcoming free-to-play battle royale, but it's not everyday that we get to fight as anime characters. It looks like HeroWarz, if you remember that game that was supposed to return someday.

Black Survival: Eternal Return is the 3D sequel to the real-time strategy battle royale game Black Survival, which was released in 2015 – the English version landed on Steam by early 2019. This time, players are fighting in an isometric version of Lumia Island, striving to be the last one standing from the 15 initial participants. There are several characters to choose from (Fiora is bound to become a fan favorite, much due to her stylish one-legged pants) and over 400 items to pick up and use. Each character comes with a signature weapon, including a machine gun, axe, sword, and bow, among others.

The third alpha test is coming and you can jump right in by asking for a Steam key in the official Discord. No fine print, nothing, just ask for the key and you shall receive. The alpha is open to players from America, Europe, and Asia, and runs for just three days, starting on October 11 and ending on October 14.

The launch of is scheduled for January 31, 2020 as a free-to-play game. Watch the new trailer below and wishlist the game on Steam if you like what you see.
