About the Game

In SCP: Retrieval, up to five players work together to complete objectives and contain a dangerous SCP.

Each match takes place on a handcrafted map where players must complete tasks such as retrieving items, destroying targets, or eliminating threats. Once all objectives are done, the final challenge is to locate and contain the SCP in the area.

Players start in a van, which acts as a mobile command center. Inside, a surveillance system lets them monitor teammates, check security cameras, and even tap into hostile feeds to track enemy movements.

Teamwork is crucial—communicate, plan your approach, and stay alert. Some missions will require stealth, while others may turn into all-out combat. The SCPs you face are unpredictable, and underestimating them can be fatal. If all players die, the mission fails. If they succeed, they secure the site and win the match.

With each successful retrieval, new challenges and more dangerous anomalies await!
