Post-apocalyptic survival game Sheltered 2 challenges you to own the wasteland

Sheltered 2

A brutal survival management simulator set in a post-apocalyptic wasteland. Keep your faction of survivors alive, maintain your shelter and scavenge the ravaged world for resources. Befriend and trade with the factions you meet or conquer them by force.

It's been six long years, but Unicube and Team17 are finally giving us a sequel to Sheltered, the post-apocalyptic resource management and survival game that's basically Fallout Shelter, just without Bethesda's own brand of post-war Pipboy aesthetic. Sheltered 2 - out today - will challenge you to own the (post)apocalypse and keep your fledgling colony of survivors alive by all means necessary.

New mechanics to Sheltered 2 include factions, where you can interact with other communities out in the wasteland, and a faction leader who represents the player. This leader is fully customisable and is the pillar of your community - if they die, it's game over.

All of the other great original mechanics return as well, powered by a modern 3D engine. You'll have plenty of resources to manage (obviously) and the wasteland is a dangerous place, filled with perils such as starvation, asphyxiation, extreme temperatures, and - if you're lucky - fights with other survivors. Should you need to get into combat with other people, there's a turn-based tactical layer where you can use a whole range of makeshift weapons. Last but not least, there are plenty of vehicles to salvage and repair. Who needs food when you've got a sweet ride?
