We’re slowly nearing the point where practically every shooter becomes an extraction shooter. Following the runaway success ofEscape from Tarkov, the genre has been expanding rapidly.
That’s what we have here, withNakwon: Last Paradise- “a 3rd person view Zombie Apocalypse Stealth Survival game. Experience a new form of ‘Post-Apocalypse Life’ that you’ve never seen before.” That’s a lot of buzzwords.
Call of Duty: Modern Warfare 3 technically has two extraction modes with DMZ and MWZ
The blurb forNakwongoes on to say “Explore Extraction Survival and gather resources from the PvPvE city, where Zombies and Survivors coexist to survive in this new societal structure.” Sadly this was probably written beforeModern Warfare 3combined the series' successful Zombies mode with their DMZ extraction gameplay, so it may not be as groundbreaking as the developer once thought.

There’s no release date noted onthe Steam pageforNakwon, so there’s definitely time to see what MWZ is doing and switch things up for their own game. Obviously, there are some stark differences, particularly in tone, but also in setting, as Nakwon takes place in Korea.
There’s definitely a place forNakwonamong all the other extraction shooters that have released recently or are on the way from the likes of Bungie with their next title,Marathon.
Hopefully more details will release soon, butNakwonis shaping up to be a welcome addition to the extraction genre.
