The physics-based post-apocalyptic hot dog diner simulator Doomsday Diner has just released a brand-new demo trailer, with the demo itself now available to play on PC via Steam.
Dubbed the “Sausage Story” trailer, the new video tells the tale of the apocalypse from a bold and deeply emotional perspective: a hot dog. Viewers follow the sausage’s journey from grill to counter while witnessing the absolute madness of running the last functioning hot dog diner in a Mad Max-like world.
Set in a post-apocalyptic wasteland where hot dogs are cheap and life is cheaper, Doomsday Diner throws players into a physics-based job simulator and FPS that is wildly unstable, in the best way possible. Players must juggle cooking, cleaning, upgrading, and defending their livelihood – all while the world outside, and their sausages, burn.
The newly released demo covers the first five days on the job, introducing players to the game’s core mechanics:
- Cooking increasingly bizarre hot dog orders before they expire
- Brewing coffee while everything around you catches fire
- Keeping the diner clean (tables and bodies included)
- Shooting down raiders who want your hard-earned cash
- Upgrading cooking equipment, your diner, and your trusty weapon
As the days progress, the pressure rises. Raiders attack more frequently. Orders become stranger. The chaos escalates. And you still haven’t taken your break.
The demo offers a hands-on taste of the escalating insanity, showcasing early upgrades and the delicate balance between running a functional diner and surviving total societal collapse.
Doomsday Diner is coming to PC via Steam later this year. Demo available now to play.
The apocalypse is here. Clock in!
