In a post-apocalyptic world overrun by the Root, you play as one of humanity’s remaining survivors, traveling through portals to other realms and fighting to stop the threat. Play alone or team up with up to two other players.
Combat centers on third-person shooting, with melee attacks and dodge rolls as you face enemy groups and bosses. Manage ammunition, choose your position, and adapt your weapons and abilities to each encounter.
Explore shifting maps, dungeons, events, and boss encounters, with procedural generation changing parts of each campaign. Scavenge materials and earn rewards to craft and upgrade weapons and armor, equip weapon mods, and develop traits that support different builds.

Some players find the difficulty and add-heavy boss fights frustrating, while others value them as tests of persistence and strategy.
