Endzone 2 – Climate Change Coming To Fruition

Assemble Entertainment continues to build excitement for their flagship apocalyptic colony builder Endzone 2. Launching in 2025 on PC (Steam link), the game has received a massive, must-play Early Access update. New graphical enhancements, missions, and innovative gameplay features continue to elevate Endzone 2 as a genre-defining experience.

The original critically-acclaimed Endzone, released in 2021, won multiple awards as a groundbreaking survival-builder. Combining city-building with post-apocalyptic survival, it challenged players to thrive on irradiated land while expanding and prospering. Its finely tuned balance kept players hooked. Endzone 2 takes the experience to a whole new level, delivering groundbreaking mechanics and immersive gameplay, ideal for fans of Anno 1800, Frostpunk and Banished!



 

The latest mammoth update to this hotly anticipated survival epic includes updated gaming mechanics and a graphical overhaul.

  • A fully-formed education system, where teachers and pupils work together against a desolate backdrop to learn a new way forward in a landscape they’re yet to understand.
  • A blackboard will appear in your town centre, directing players to in-game events.
  • New crops and items to be used within your campaign.
  • Settlers can gain new badges that affect the productivity of their zones.
  • Improved antialiasing and new graphical options.

The scope of Endzone 2 continues to grow as we move towards its July 2025 launch, with the prospect of this genre-defining title, even surpassing its predecessor thanks to deeper complexity, realism, and engaging challenges. Players must carefully navigate intuitive gameplay while making critical decisions essential for progress, offering a glimpse into a future that feels all too real.
