Stay Out is a Russian MMORPG with shooter mechanics from Mobile Technologies (MOBITECH), widely seen as a renamed Stalker Online, since the same studio runs both. It is set in an exclusion zone of abandoned towns, labs and bases full of anomalies, mutants and artifacts.
Play revolves around scavenging runs. Hunger, thirst, radiation and disease wear you down; supplies matter as much as guns. Loot feeds crafting or gets sold to other players. Other stalkers can be allies or threats: there is open PvP, factions and a fight over resources. The game runs through its own launcher, Steam or VK Play.
It suits players who like the S.T.A.L.K.E.R. mood and slow, risky survival. Keep in mind it has been labelled Early Access on Steam since 2019, and its early Steam reviews were mixed, citing bugs and a steep learning curve.
