Generation Zero®

In an alternate 1980s Sweden, you return to find the countryside overrun by hostile machines. Explore the abandoned region, search for survivors, and uncover clues about the invasion.

Travel through forests, villages, and bunkers while choosing when to sneak past machines and when to fight. Use cover, plan ambushes, and target vulnerable parts of the robots in solo play or with up to three friends.

Gain experience to improve your skills, and search fallen machines and locations for weapons, equipment, and crafting materials. Make ammunition and gear, and build and fortify bases across the island.

Players who enjoy Generation Zero often praise its lonely Swedish setting, atmospheric tension, and sound design, as well as the tactical satisfaction of fighting machines and exploring with friends. Some find the early encounters especially engaging, while others say the missions and combat become repetitive, progression turns grindy, and bugs disrupt the experience. Opinions on the story and solo play vary.
