The next Dead Age
Right now we are in a prototype phase, but we are pretty sure about most of the design points. This will be followed by another 2.5 years of development until 2024. Here's a small list of what we're planning to include.
-
Planned Features
- The next Dead Age will remain a role-playing game, but there will be more focus on strategy and some simulation.
- There are several bases you can control and much more rooms e.g. cooking, farm animals or wild animals in cages for the hunter or traps for the defense of the bases.
- You will be able to manage many survivors, which now have more attributes e.g. stress or motivation.
- small but also big battles with up to 18 survivors against waves of zombies, this time in real time in the style of Dragon Age or Pathfinder. It is supposed to be faster overall. However, the view remains from the side. This means the characters perform their basic strikes in real time, but you can pause and think of tactics. At the same time, you can again handle many skills, which can also be upgraded in terms of level. More tactics for the opponents are planned, so that the player varies his tactics as much as possible. There should be help with speech bubbles of the party members to tactics, so that players who do not get along with a tactic immediately receive support.
- The focus on strategy is also reflected in the fact that you can conquer or defend areas. The clue is that up to 7 other factions can also conquer the territories, this can result in cool battles and sometimes an alliance with a faction is important to be able to exist at all on the battlefield. Besides, zombie hordes still want to have a say.
- We are also trying to improve the storyline. The focus should not only be on other factions, but also bring the companions more into the action. This will mean that story companions (as in Dead Age 1 + 2) can not die forever, because otherwise you never know who is currently dead and who is still alive.
- Nevertheless, the player can still die and also the numerous non-story characters. Workers or soldiers that you lead to your camps because of events or quests.
- But the game is divided into 3-4 chapters. When you finish a chapter, the player can start at the next chapter. So he does not have to repeat the whole story.
- It also has the advantage that I, as a designer, can make the game a bit harder later on, knowing that not so many "accidental" players will complain about having to repeat numerous hours ;)
- Important decisions and consequences are listed exactly this time, so you can see chapter by chapter which decisions you have made. If you are unhappy with a decision, you can repeat the chapter accordingly.

Dead Age 2 is a unique combination of survival, management, Rogue-Like events, turn-based combat, classic role-playing game with tons of quests and a story in which your decisions directly affect plot progression!
Features
- More complex story with no knowledge of the previous storyline necessary: If you haven't played Dead Age you will still be able to follow the diverse story of Dead Age 2 without difficulty.
- Improved combat system (Final Fantasy X meets Darkest Dungeon): with fast-paced yet strategic battles and use of up to 24 skills
- Faction Reputation System: Increase your standing with the three major factions to reap rewards and improve trade
- 3D Base-Management: Assign tasks to survivors, craft items and expand you camp's capabilities for improved crafting options
- Compact Open World: Free exploration of the world map with 80 detailed locations to search for valuable resources
- Decisions with Consequences: Your decisions directly affect the story in a much more drastic way. Dead Age 2 has six unique possible endings
- Rogue-Like Elements: random 3D events with permadeath! If you die, you may purchase upgrades unlocked in previous runs for your next playthrough. Choose from 3 difficulty levels
10 years after the initial outbreak of the zombie apocalypse, the members of Jack's camp fled to Freedom City, where a cure for the zombie plague was developed. But the news brings more suffering than relief. New factions have sprung up in the region, in constant battle for dominance. The merciless Military, the shady Smugglers and the Independents made up primarily of civilians.
When an Independents' refugee camp was overrun by an undead horde, the few survivors struggle for food and valuable resources in an unforgiving world, always looking over their shoulder for gangs of looters and the flesh-eating dead.
While the big advantage of Dead Age's turn-based combat system versus tactics-based games is faster progression, the mechanics have evolved.
A character can now bring up to 24 skills to the battle. Change up your tactics mid-fight to instantly gain the advantage over zombies and hostile survivors. Place front-row combatants to protect ranged-combat allies from attackers, and deploy turrets, hunting dogs and tigers, as well as an array of new weapons.
Visit the outposts of other factions to trade and take on missions and improve your standing with them. Improving relations with the region's greater factions unlocks better equipment and plot devices. A negative reputation can lead to confrontation or even a bounty.
Your 3D base is your central hub of operations. Here, you assign crafting or building jobs to survivors, build and upgrade stations to improve defense and quality of life and unlock improved craftable items and higher yield of resources.
The new open game-world offers free exploration of the world map with over 80 detailed graphically depicted locations. Beside nature scenes, Dead Age 2 features new indoor locations like hospitals, bunkers, schools, malls and army supply stores.
Decisions you make while playing can have significant effects on the progression of the story involving the three survivor factions, romanceable characters, and bring you closer to one of the game's six endings!
Like its predecessor, Dead Age 2 features random events on the map resulting in a variety of consequences, but this time those events are depicted fully in 3D. Survival RPGs are especially dangerous. 3 difficulty levels and permadeath may result at any time in losing an ally for good. If your main character falls victim to the apocalypse you are forced to begin a new playthrough, for which you can purchase upgrades and advantages unlocked in previous runs.
Gain enough standing with the factions and you may purchase things like upgraded faction equipment for newly-created characters, as well as unlock unique endings. This gives Dead Age 2 high replayability!
