How to Survive 2

How to Survive 2 is a survival game set several years after the events on Los Riscos’ archipelago. The infection has become a worldwide pandemic, and people everywhere struggle to survive among the infected. In Louisiana, you start by building a safe camp and learning to survive. You search for water, food and shelter, and speak with unconventional locals, including a masked stranger who offers help.

Survive in Louisiana

Explore randomized environments ranging from the Mississippi Delta bayous to the abandoned streets of New Orleans’ French Quarter. A day-and-night cycle and changing weather affect your journeys; at night, nocturnal zombies lurk in the darkness. Keep an eye on hunger and thirst so you can fight, and manage your inventory weight to avoid being slowed down while a horde is after you. Finish moves and gory effects add to the ways you can take down zombies.

Build and defend your camp

Set up and upgrade your camp with traps, barricades, obstacles and workshops. Workshops provide recipes and let you make more materials and items, while a deeper crafting system uses items and materials to create hundreds of tools, weapons and other items for your character and camp. You can choose how to arrange your defenses, then face Kovac’s Challenges by placing traps strategically and fighting hordes of powerful zombies. A public camp lets you meet other survivors, and a private chest keeps your precious objects safe.

Develop your survivor

Create a character, learn different skills as you level up and specialize in a chosen direction. Equip your survivor with scavenged and handcrafted armor, tools and weapons. Kovac’s advice is also available in video format.

Quests and challenges

Elite quests offer a one-try challenge: if you die, you return to camp. The game also includes Kovac’s Challenges, where you defend your camp against powerful zombie hordes.

Multiplayer

You can invite up to 16 players to access your camp, with up to four playing online at the same time. Local co-op supports up to four players on the same PC, and local co-op players can join an online game, allowing up to 16 players to play simultaneously. Players can work together to improve the camp and perform co-op actions and strategies.
