'Endzone: A World Apart' - New Screens & Trailer

by Rainier on March 13, 2020 @ 1:31 p.m. PDT

Endzone: A World Apart is a post-apocalyptic city-builder set in a world ravaged by a catastrophic worldwide nuclear powerplant meltdown caused by terrorists in 2021.

Endzone: A World Apart challenges players to prove themselves as a worthy leader and survive in a hostile environment where the most dangerous foes are the unforgiving climate and catastrophic weather events. 

Endzone: A World Apart follows a group of refugees who, more than a century after a devastating worldwide nuclear powerplant terrorist attack, are leaving their underground bunkers and rebuilding society on the surface. After 150 years dwelling underground in bunkers called ‘endzones,” Earth’s surface seems like a breath of fresh air, though that couldn’t be any further from the truth! Players will face the likes of toxic rain, dangerously radioactive environments, raging sandstorms, and a merciless climate.

While spearheading the rise of humanity, men, women, and children will need protection from threats of all kinds, and there’s no telling what each new day will bring on the forsaken planet from which they’ve emerged. 


The new trailer explores the skills one must master in order to survive Endzone’s environmental calamities ranging from brutal sandstorms to blistering drought. Of course, each problem comes with its own unique solution, but the challenge lies in your decision making...will you risk your colony’s water supply for the good of your crops? Will community morale deteriorate with a lack of food? Can the infrastructure of your civilization withstand a radiation-contaminated sandstorm, and is your community prepared to rebuild at a moment's notice?

In addition, Assemble Entertainment has partnered with One Tree Planted to launch a charitable campaign aimed at fighting a very real-life end-of-the-world scenario: climate change. Players can contribute to improving the environment for free, from today until Endzone’s early access launch, just by wishlisting the game!

Endzone: A World Apart is currently in Closed Beta, which will run until the game’s planned Steam Early Access launch this spring on PC and Mac.

Players who preorder at the official website are granted immediate access to the Closed Beta, and members of the official Assemble Entertainment Discord server also have the chance to obtain a Closed Beta key during ongoing raffles. 

Key Features:

  • The Pursuit of Happiness: The world as we know it is gone. Build a new home for the last human survivors! Provide them with a steady food and water supply, educate them on how to cultivate their own crops, and provide shelter that can withstand the worst the weather has to offer with over 30 different buildings, each with a significant purpose.
  • Gather & Lead: As the leader of your settlement, coordinate and assign different professions and tasks. Let your people gather and refine a wide array of resources, and manage your economy by building an efficient infrastructure with streets, depositories, and markets.
  • The Invisible Enemies: Though the nuclear meltdowns are long past, harmful radiation still haunts the surface of Earth in the form of toxic rains, contaminated soil, and more. Safeguard your people and their hard-earned crops with special anti-contamination gear, water filters, protective buildings, and more.
  • Survive the Drought: The climate has changed, and not for the better! Prepare for recurring droughts by planning ahead and stocking up on food, water, and other essentials. Withstand unstoppable sandstorms as they destroy buildings and bring with them deadly radiation. Every weather cycle is a new challenge! 
  • A Vivid, Dynamically Simulated World: Every inch of earth in the game features dynamically simulated humidity and radiation. Watch as rain clouds irrigate your soil, or prepare for ongoing battles against toxic rain as they bring devastating radiation to the land.
  • Think like a Diplomat: The world beyond your safe and carefully crafted civilization is intimidating, but it’s your job to make the tough decisions that will secure the fate of your people, such as sending expeditions to remote, unexplored locations to source materials, locate resources, and more.    

Endzone: A World Apart is coming to PC in 2020.
