settlement and can influence other societies in the Wasteland. New Alliances expands the
World Map where beasts and bandits will react to your choices and can even take over strategic
locations. Interacting with societies has become more impactful, allowing players to unite
colonies under their banner. Uniting colonies requires players to maintain their reputation or risk
creating more rivals to compete against. Specialists can go on covert missions and influence the
world through sabotage, theft, espionage, and propaganda, but be mindful of the risks as failure
will have devastating consequences.
“New Alliances allows us to dive deeper into the Dynamic World Map and lets our players get
creative with how they interact with other societies. This is a major milestone for Surviving the
Aftermath that goes beyond the colony and adds more strategic depth to the Wasteland,” said
Lasse Liljedahl, Game Director for Surviving the Aftermath. “We are continuing to listen to our
players and improve Surviving the Aftermath’s gameplay with more features and expanding the
game’s mechanics. Our community has been absolutely crucial to Surviving the Aftermath’s
ongoing development and New Alliances brings in features that players have been eagerly
anticipating.”
Surviving the Aftermath: New Alliances Key Features:
● Stronger together: Meet varied societies and help them with their requests to earn their
loyalty and improve your colony with more than 12 new buildings. Positive interactions
with other societies increase your reputation. But fail to meet their expectations and
you’ll see them join your new rival, who will gain more control over the Wasteland.
● New enemies in a Dynamic World Map: Bandits and beasts scour the Wasteland,
compelling you to protect your settlement and those of your allies. Groups of bandits
terrorize survivors and take over key locations. Make sure to defend and support other
societies by trading and constructing new buildings whenever possible. An expanded
user interface allows you to manage every single step to the unification of the
Wasteland.
● Covert missions: Shaping a new world isn’t easy. While collaboration is key, leaders
can influence societies in more subtle ways. Sabotage, theft, espionage, and even
propaganda will become tools in your arsenal, and specialists’ skills will affect how likely
they are to succeed in a mission. Be mindful of the consequences though: failure will
decrease your reputation and give more control to your rival and may cause the societies
you targeted to retaliate.
