Into the Radius 2

Into the Radius 2 is a survival game set in the altered Radius, where you explore dangerous locations, take on missions and contend with hostile entities and anomalies. You can play solo or team up with up to three friends in four-player co-op. Both modes share the same gameplay and story, and proximity voice chat lets you coordinate or warn one another in real time. After completing the tutorial mission, you can host a co-op session and enter the Radius with a friend.

Weapons and loadouts

The game features classic and modern firearms, each with realistic detail and distinct handling. You can customize weapons as complete builds or swap individual barrels, stocks, handguards, optics and other attachments. Firearms deteriorate over time and can jam or fail if you do not clean and maintain them regularly.

You can arrange chest rigs, armor vests and backpacks from scratch or use pre-configured setups. Pouches and holsters can be placed and angled to suit your preferences. The spray-paint system lets you repaint backpacks, vests, pouches, magazines, attachments, weapon parts, helmets, the tablet and the Explorer’s Uniform, using solid colors or layered camouflage patterns.

Hostile entities

The Radius contains entities born from distortion, each with distinct behavior, movement and weaknesses. Mimics stalk the fog in human form; their types differ in weapons, tactics and strategies. Distorted Fragments rush at you without fear, while invisible Phantom variants reveal themselves only if you stay completely focused. Creeps emerge from rifts in reality and are fragile but dangerous in numbers.

Mimics search for you, take cover under pressure and reposition or rebuild ambushes when they lose the advantage. At close range, they become more aggressive and adjust their accuracy, timing and firing mode to the situation. Enemies react to what they can see and hear, including nearby flashlights and laser sights.

Anomalies and the Tide

Anomalies have different effects: some explode into shrapnel on contact, build charge and release electric shocks, suppress nearby light sources, or attach to you before detonating for extra damage. Others trigger powerful electric bursts when entered or violently push you away while dealing damage. Distortion Zones cause severe damage every second you remain inside them; special anti-distortion headgear is needed to move through them safely.

The Radius shifts from day to night and between Tide cycles. The Tide is a recurring in-world event that resets each location, though each area follows its own schedule. Some tidal anomalies remain untouched by the reset, and Explorers can find shelters within them to prepare and wait it out.

You need to adapt your tactics, pay attention to light and sound, and use your surroundings to survive encounters.
