Lone Survivors

Lone Survivors is an objective-driven bullet heaven where you fight through runs, adapt your build and grow more powerful. Choose from 12 classes, each with its own active ability and progression tree. The Necromancer raises the dead, the Knight charges through enemies and the Mage casts devastating spells; unlocking the full roster reveals more ways to survive.

Classes and builds

Each level-up offers choices including weapons, magic, traps, class upgrades, rare bonuses and legendary effects. You can combine them into builds, with rare and legendary upgrades capable of changing a build outright. Playstyles include explosive, magical, defensive, summoning and melee approaches.

There are over 40 weapons, each with its own upgrade path, and over 300 permanent upgrades to unlock between runs.

Campaign and biomes

The six-map campaign takes you through forests, dungeons, beaches, volcanic depths, a pirate ship and a zombie-filled village. Each area has its own enemies, objectives, bosses and hazards, with mysteries to uncover along the way.

You face over 60 enemy types, elites with unique threats and more than 15 bosses. Runs can also include random events, shrines, Circles of Power, changing weather and escalating difficulty.

Beyond the campaign

After clearing the game, you can climb the Ascension levels with each class, facing tougher enemies and new objectives for greater rewards. Endless mode lets you test how long a build can last, while leaderboards let you compete for rank 1 and study other players’ builds. You can activate shrines, take on Trials and fight endless bosses in Endless runs.

Boss Rush pits you against the game’s bosses back to back. In the Weekly Challenge, everyone plays the same map, class and seed and competes on one shared leaderboard.

Combat and hub

Bosses make an entrance and are defeated in a chain of explosions, while chests burst open and knock back the horde. Every weapon has its own sound; you can adjust screen shake, flashing, hit pause, vibration and each kind of sound in Options.

Between battles, return to the hub to blacksmith and fish, improve your equipment, prepare for future runs or take a break.
