Sheltered 2 Announced For September!
For those of you who haven’t had enough survival games, then buckle up we got you! Team17 and Unicube Studios have announced today the release date for their upcoming sequel. The management survival game Sheltered 2 will be launching on Steam on the 21st of September, 2021. The setting is, you guessed it, a post-apocalyptic environment where players are challenged with surviving the horrors that one might face in a real apocalyptic scene.
Based on the foundation of the original Sheltered back in 2016, the game features revamped combat systems and new faction mechanics for deeper strategic gameplay. The re-immersed 3D art style and punishing survival challenges are spread out across depleted landscapes and scorched lands. For the survival specialist among you, Sheltered 2 can be added to your Steam Wishlist for that waste-ful reminder (pun intended) when the game will be finally available.

Key Features:
- Factions: The factions system allows players to forge relationships with other groups to provide their base with resources and support, or they can grab their weapons and take things the old-fashioned way
- Resource Management: Players will balance the needs and wants of their survivors, manage scarce resources, craft items needed to maintain the shelter, cook meals, and build equipment to keep their group alive, and with the expanded power system players can generate energy in new ways
- Faction Leader: New for Sheltered 2, the faction leader is the most important member of a shelter, boasting their own unique and powerful traits, the faction leader will be pivotal to success, with their death meaning game over
- An Unforgiving Wasteland: Starvation, asphyxiation, extreme temperatures, and combat are just some of the challenges players will face in the harsh wasteland
- Combat: In Sheltered 2 players will use a variety of skills coupled with the ability to build parties of four and targeting specific body parts on their enemies to deal the most visceral damage in combat situations. Each action performed also has a stamina cost, so strategy will be at the forefront of every altercation, each move critical in the balance of life and death
- Characters: Survivors have their own personalities, traits, desires, and skills to acquire, and the ability to customize each individually means every faction member is unique.
