Scum is something of a mainstay in the world of survival videogames, having first entered Early Access on Steam all the way back in 2018. In the years since, it's garnered a solid reputation among players, earning itself a position alongside DayZ, Ark: Survival Evolved, Rust, and Valheim as one of the finest examples of the genre. And now, as it approaches nearly a decade of active development, the game is finally about to hit 1.0 in the very near future.
