Credit the sequence without guessing the alphabet
Art of the Title lists Elastic as the studio behind the 2023 sequence and names Andy Hall and Nadia Tzuo as creative directors. The published design credits include Mike Zeng and Min Shi. These are useful production facts, but the inspected credits do not identify a font family. FindFont therefore leaves the exact alphabet unresolved. A match proposed for the game’s title cannot automatically be transferred to the television sequence, even when the franchise name is the same.

Try a tall, compact heading. This is a different licensed alphabet, not a verified television-title font.

Compare narrower forms and the rhythm of a longer heading. This is an independent alternative.
View fontCompare density, line breaks and texture separately
For an original survival-drama title, choose the line break before adding surface wear. Set the same words in two condensed faces at equal cap height, then compare narrow counters and the space between repeated vertical strokes. A strong silhouette should remain readable without scratches or grain. Try a short subtitle in a less condensed face. Texture can become an independent visual layer; it should not be used to conceal awkward spacing or presented as proof that a retail font was used in the original.
A commercial direction and free comparisons
MyFonts lists Trade Gothic from Linotype. Explore the family’s available styles as a separate direction for compact headings; this page does not attribute Trade Gothic to the television title. Confirm the particular style and appropriate license before purchase. Bebas Neue and Oswald are reviewed free alternatives with different letter shapes and widths. Compare both with your own words instead of treating either as an exact replica. The sequence’s footage and artwork are not reproduced here, and no unverified fan-font download is hosted.
Evidence for this attribution ↓Common questions
Is the television title font verified here?
No. The sequence’s production credits are documented, while the exact title alphabet remains unknown.
Are the game and television title the same font?
The shared name does not establish that. Each version needs its own evidence for its exact typography.
