Details

The full picture

Written from verified facts; labels mark how strong each statement's evidence is.

01

What the game is

Bunker and Friends is a co-op maintenance game released October 9, 2026 in Early Access at $7.19.

You and up to five friends are the maintenance robots of a post-nuclear bunker.

Keep the power on, the air breathable and the machines running - for the humans who live behind a door you are not authorized to open.

02

Your unit and the failing bunker

Every part is a trade: faster means fragile, armour means slow, and your crew will have opinions.

The power runs out, pipes burst and cables spark, and the longer the game runs the faster it all comes apart.

Someone has to be on their toes at all times.

03

Going outside and who it is for

Supplies do not refill themselves: the heavy vault door cycles open, a crew heads out to a procedurally built site, and they must return with loot before the things out there escalate from one stalking horror to several.

While the away team is gone, the bunker keeps breaking - both halves of the crew work at the same time, out of sight of each other, connected only by voice.

A pack hunts the halls, something municipal fills the corridor and cannot be killed, and something comes for whoever has been alone too long (BOUNDED: official Steam description, checked 2026-10-13).
