Home Behind 2

Gameplay overview

Set ten years before the first game, Home Behind 2 follows Banan, a college student returning to Scaria during its civil war to join a revolution. Alongside Prince, an agent from the Norto Republic, and Haroun, a disgraced tribal leader’s son, she leads a group of fighters into government-controlled territory.

Travel across randomly generated areas of western Scaria, gathering supplies, visiting locations and responding to events. Choose routes and approaches as you undertake missions, occupy enemy oil fields and claim cities. Combat unfolds in real time, with the option to pause and direct teammates’ tactics.

Recruit and train fighters, then build a team from dozens of jobs with different skills and stats. Find random weapon and armor drops, outfit vehicles for encounters with mechanized enemies, and develop a camp to cook, craft gear and upgrade technologies. The main campaign and side missions tell the story of the conflict.
