The wipe loop

Every wipe starts fresh. Gather resources, find a spot, build your first base and work your way up the tech tree. Monuments hold the best loot — and NPCs that bite back.

Start safe in PvE

Every survivor starts in PvE mode. Other players cannot hurt you or damage your base, and you cannot hurt theirs. Take your time to farm, build and learn the map.

Switch to PvP when you are ready

Want real fights? Switch to PvP. From then on you can fight other PvP players and raid their bases — and they can do the same to you.

Progression

Unlock blueprints, upgrade your base and gear up for the harder content: monuments, raidable bases and events.
