Hello Survivors!

Today let's want to talk about the game modes that will be available at launch, time to dive on in.

Boss Mode

  • Boss Mode is the core survival experience. Your goal is to survive all the way to Wave 35, levelling up, choosing upgrades, refining your build along the way, and choosing which weapons to fight with.

  • Each map has a different layout and introduces new enemy types, so make sure your build can reach wave 35.

  • Once wave 35 is completed the boss will spawn in! Watch out for its deadly landing, multiple phases and patterned attacks. Beating the boss will need the right amount of skill in dodging it's attacks, while being able to put out enough firepower to take it down.

  • Can you take down the boss?

Time Attack

  • Time Attack mode puts you against a constantly ticking timer. The clock is always counting down, and the only way to stay alive is to keep fighting. Defeating enemies adds time back to the clock, with tougher enemies rewarding more time.

  • This mode features unique upgrades to earn back more time and special ability enhancements that become more powerful when time is close to running out.

  • How long can you survive?

Endless

  • Endless Mode removes bosses and timers entirely. It’s pure, fast-paced action with one goal: push your build as far as possible.

  • With no hard limits, this mode lets you fully experiment, maximize your upgrades, and chase the highest score.

  • Just how far can you go?

Each mode has 4 difficulty levels, each giving more challenge but the chance to earn a higher score on the leader board.

Thanks for reading!
