Team Vivat releases their 1990s open-world action game Vivat Slovakia into Steam Early Access

From Press Release:

Bratislava, Slovakia – November 26th, 2024 – In an era when a President’s son could be kidnapped in broad daylight and journalists disappeared without a trace, 1990s Slovakia wasn’t just living through history – it was surviving it. Today, Team Vivat is proud to bring this remarkable chapter of history to a global audience with the English release of their open-world action-adventure game ‘Vivat Slovakia’ available now on Steam Early Access. Based on documented events that shocked a nation, this game delivers an open-world crime epic that would make Tommy Vercetti think twice about setting foot in Bratislava.

Set in a meticulously recreated 10 km² of 1990s Bratislava, players take on the role of a secret police officer working deep undercover as a taxi driver. You’ll infiltrate the city’s dangerous underworld, where government officials make backroom deals with crime bosses and business tycoons trade briefcases in dark alleys. As you navigate through layers of corruption and betrayal, each mission reveals another piece of a true story that Western media never dared to cover – until now.

“This is the game we always wanted to make – a story about the city we grew up in, during its most dramatic transformation,” says Roman Lipka, Team Vivat’s Producer. “We’re not making up stories here – we’re telling them. The missions, characters, and even the undercover taxi you drive are all based on real events and vehicles from the era. Players can immerse themselves in a slice of history that’s never been explored in gaming before, and the response has been incredible. From positive Steam ratings to growing international media attention, it’s clear this authentic experience resonates far beyond Slovakia’s borders.”

Key Features:

  • Authentic ‘90s Bratislava – Explore a meticulously recreated city during its wildest era
  • True Crime Missions – Investigate actual historical events, from presidential kidnapping to underground operations
  • Get Behind The Wheel – Drive 50+ iconic vehicles, each reflecting the distinctive character of ‘90s Slovakia.
  • Go Deep Undercover – Infiltrate a complex network of criminals, politicians, and power players.
  • Beyond the Mission – Master street racing, run import/export schemes, make special deliveries, or escape to peaceful fishing spots
