Against the Storm - Complete Edition — Xbox Series X|S and Xbox One

You are the Viceroy – a leader charged by the Scorched Queen to reclaim the wilderness and discover lost riches for the Smoldering City, civilization's last bastion against the Blightstorm that destroyed the old world. Unlike most survival city builders where your focus is on a single city, in Against the Storm you must build a vast, prosperous network of settlements populated by diverse fantasy races, each with their own specializations and needs. The wilderness holds many hidden dangers, and never-ending storms will batter your population into submission. If your settlements should fall, then the expedition may end – but not the game. Against the Storm is a roguelite city builder, meaning you will carry forward the resources, upgrades, and experience of your past expeditions each time you set off for a new journey into the wild. MANAGE A DIVERSE POPULATION OF VILLAGERS Foxes, beavers, and lizards stand alongside humans and harpies in the struggle to survive. Utilize their strengths as you balance varying needs, from housing and culinary preferences to taste in luxuries and recreation. Will you manufacture raincoats, brew ale, and bake pies to boost morale in the face of the oppressive hostility of the forest, or will you prioritize the needs of one species over another to operate more swiftly for the Scorched Queen? CITY BUILDER MEETS ROGUELITE Experience city builder gameplay enhanced by roguelite replayability. Build and manage multiple settlements spread across a large world map, all while collecting valuable meta-progression resources to upgrade the Smoldering City. Manage your reputation to secure success at one settlement before moving on to establish another, constantly seeking new opportunities for growth, taking on unique challenges across multiple biomes, and bracing for the inevitable destruction of everything but the Smoldering City itself. How will you maximize each cycle to not just ensure the best fate for the Smoldering City, but for your career as Viceroy as well? NEVER THE SAME GAME TWICE Every city location presents unique challenges for even the most resourceful Viceroy with hundreds of modifiers and multiple distinct biomes. Adjust your strategy to changing conditions and experiment with rosters of building blueprints and perks that can help your society thrive or bring it to ruin. Will you take on and complete additional objectives and delve deeper into the dangerous forest for potential boons, or will you approach with caution to ensure you operate within your capabilities? BUILD AN ENDLESS NUMBER OF CITIES Laying the foundations for a new city is one of the most exciting moments in a city-building game. In Against the Storm, you'll have the opportunity to repeatedly experience this by creating new settlements, while still interacting with your network of previously established cities in a growing world. The Complete Edition of Against the Storm comes with the Keepers of the Stone and Nightwatchers DLC which introduce two new species, four new biomes, and new buildings, orders, risks, and opportunities for any Viceroy up for the challenge.
