Some Survival games I consider are:
The Forest, The Long Dark, and Subsistence. Forest and Subsistence do have multiplayer but are really more fleshed out as solo play.
ARK, Reign of Kings, and Rust are really into the PVP aspect and all that comes with that.
Don't starve(solo)_ or Don't Starve together(mulitplayer) are good but a different type of look and feel.
Unturned is a zombie game with super simple graphics but a complex system. It is solo and server based. Also FREE.
Others of mention:
Feel the snow, (I never tried it but I got it on one of the Steam sales.)
Sir You are Being hunted, is a stealth survival game.
Signs if life, is a Survival adventure game. (I never tried it but I got it on one of the Steam sales. I was intrigued after seeing it streamed on twitch)
Terraria is well known and good. I never got far in it but there is plenty info on it out there.
This war of mine. This is a story, survival, game.
Of course, don't just go on my input. Research them before hand, especially the ones under Others of Mention.
