Hold the line with three friends
You are one of 8 immune Cleaners, and humanity's extinction is on the line. Fight through a story campaign in 4-player co-op, online with up to 3 friends or solo leading your team, through increasingly challenging missions.
Expect perilous streets and strongholds packed with common Ridden and mutated bosses up to 20 feet tall. You share ammo, revive each other, pick weapons and items, and decide who covers the doorway when the horde comes. It is fast, tense, and gory work.
Build a deck, change the fight
Before each run you craft a custom deck from a rogue-lite card system, then draw through it as missions get harder. You roll different builds focused on weapons, survival, or items, and stack cards for more demanding fights.
No two runs play the same. You might take a shotgun build one night and a medic-style support build the next, and the cards force new trade-offs as corruption effects pile on. Picking what to play next is half the fun.
A director that likes you stressed
The Game Director watches what you do and adjusts the fight, keeping action frenetic with different enemy mixes, tougher legions of Ridden, and shifting pressure. You push through an alarm door expecting quiet, then get a boss and a horde for your optimism.
That constant adjustment is what makes it replayable. Learn the map layout all you want; the enemies, mutations, and timing still keep you checking corners.
Play the monsters for a change
In competitive multiplayer you can switch sides and play as the horrific Ridden instead of a Cleaner with special perks. Both sides bring unique weapons, abilities, and specialties, so a match becomes humans versus friends who are now very glad to be ugly.
It suits the PvP mood when co-op starts feeling too friendly. One round you are strategizing survival, the next you are the reason someone else's plan falls apart.
Good to know before you squad up?
Who are the Cleaners and the Ridden?
Cleaners are 8 customizable immune survivors fighting to reclaim the world. The Ridden are once-human hosts of a deadly parasite, turned into terrifying creatures bent on devouring what remains of civilization. You fight them across the co-op campaign, where humanity's extinction is at stake.
How does co-op actually work?
It is a 4-player co-op narrative campaign built around teamwork against increasingly challenging missions. Play online with up to 3 friends, or go solo and lead your team in battle. You coordinate weapons, items, revives, and positioning, because lone wolves become lunch.
What is the card system?
A rogue-lite system that creates different experiences each time. You craft custom decks, roll different builds, and take on more demanding fights as the run continues. It rewards planning your deck around your Cleaner, your weapons, and what your team already brings.
What is PvP like?
You play with or against friends, switching between Cleaners with special perks and the horrific Ridden. Each side has unique weapons, abilities, and specialties, so matches reward learning both human tactics and monster tricks.
