Survive a worldwide zombie pandemic in Louisiana's bayous and New Orleans streets by building a secure camp and mastering survival skills. Gather water, food, and shelter while chatting with quirky locals, including a masked stranger who offers aid over fighting undead hordes. Craft hundreds of tools, weapons, and armor from scavenged materials to level up your character and fortify your base with traps, barricades, and workshops.
Team up in multiplayer action-host up to 16 players at your camp, play online with four at once, or join local co-op on PC that links into larger sessions. Tackle elite quests with one-life permadeath, defend against zombie hordes in Kovac's Challenges, and manage hunger, thirst, inventory weight, night cycles, and weather. RPG adventure fans who crave co-op crafting, base defense, and hardcore survival challenges will thrive here.
Several years have passed since the original How to Survive events on Los Riscos’ archipelago. Now the local infection has turned into a worldwide pandemic. Everyone around the world, groups of people or lone wolves, try to survive one more day among the infected, attempting to recover a semblance of normal life. You find yourself in Louisiana and your survival chance starts by building a safe camp and becoming a skilled survivalist.
Find water, food and shelter and talk to the unconventional locals to make your way around.
An eccentric masked stranger offers you help? Sure, sounds way better than zombies!
