Impassable woods advance onto cities from every side, as maddened animals and birds attack industrial complexes, military structures, warehouses and power-plants. Strange plants and mushrooms grow through concrete and steel. Scientists all over the world haplessly try to cope with the anomaly expanding with terrifying speed across the planet. Countries collapse; anarchy spreads throughout the world. Now force dictates who can survive.

Survarium Patch 0.50 with the first ever cooperative story mission is now live!

Survarium Patch 0.50 Highlights

Story-driven Team Mission

Story mission tells about a conflict between Black Market and The Renaissance Army, and also unveils the mystery about secret experiments which lead to creation of the Forest. Specifically for this mission we created a new map with lots of both open and indoors locations. We tried to add an element of exploration into the game, and also let you interact with the world of Survarium.

The mission is designed for a squad of three players, and to successfully finish it you need to complete a set of tasks. At least one of the players must reach each of the checkpoints: then defeated squad members (if there are any) are resurrected and may continue. If all squad members are dead, the mission is failed.

While going through the mission you will learn the storyline, but you can also find stashes containing various trophies which you will receive when the mission is successfully finished.

The Complete List of Changes in Survarium Patch 0.50

Team Story Missions

• Introduced "Team Missions" mode.
• Introduced "Dangerous Knowlege" team mission. It tells about a conflict between Black Market and The Renaissance Army, and also unveils the mystery about secret experiments which lead to creation of the Forest.
• To begin a mission special Access Keys are required. The keys are divided in free and premium. One free key is awarded for each of the first 2 wins in PvP matches daily (so you can get maximum 2 keys daily), and you cannot own more than 2 free keys. Premium keys can be bought in the shop. Your keys never expire and the free keys are always used first.
• After the first login into Survarium 0.50 all players will receive 5 Access Keys (2 free and 3 premium ones).
• To start a mission you need to spend one Access Key for each person. You can pay for yourself, and also for one or both allies.
• The mission is designed for a squad of three players. However, you can start it solo or with a friend, but you need to block the rest of the spots: pay for another one (if you go duo) or for two other people (if you go solo).
• When you join a PvE mission alone (and have not blocked additional spots), the game will find two squadmates for you.
• While going through the mission you can find stashes with trophies (some of them are hard to miss, but it's not that easy to get all of the stashes). The more stashes you collect, the more rewards you get when the mission is a success. Can you find all the stashes?
• There are three difficulty settings (easy, medium, hard) on each of five equipment tiers. The rewards for completing a mission depend on the number of stashes found, difficulty and equipment tier.
• To successfully finish a mission you need to complete a set of tasks. At least one of the players must reach each of the checkpoints: then defeated squad members are resurrected and may continue.
• You can resurrect immediately by spending an Access Key.
• You can loot fallen enemies to resupply ammo.
• If all squad members are dead, the mission is failed. The mission also has a time limit (45 minutes).
• Added new UI screens before and after team missions.
• Added Leaderboards for Team Missions. Your position is affected by the number of found stashes and mission completion time.
