Explore

Exploration lets you leave the city in a vehicle, travel to remote locations, and bring the supplies you find back to your Stronghold. It is unlocked once you have built and upgraded the Garage far enough to obtain a vehicle.

Unlike Scavenging, exploring requires an outbound and return journey. Each location contains zones with activities to complete while you are there.

Explore areas allow PvP

Other players can scout and attack you at every Explore location. After winning, an attacker can steal up to 5 kg from your vehicle cargo. Carry only what you are prepared to risk.

Choosing a location

Locations are grouped into Easy, Medium and Hard categories. Each has its own difficulty, travel time and travel cost.

Your active vehicle and its upgrades can change the journey. Speed reduces travel time, while Fuel Cost changes the fuel required, to a minimum of 5 Fuel.

Preparing to travel

Carry the equipment and supplies needed for the activities you plan to complete. Fuel is consumed when the journey begins.

Your vehicle cannot travel while overweight. Once a journey begins, it can be canceled only during its short cancellation window.

At the location

After arriving, you can complete the location's scavenging, hunting, combat, gate and other activities. Some use timers or cooldowns, while later zones remain locked until their requirements are met.

Loot is stored in your vehicle. The vehicle cannot begin the return journey while overweight, and its cargo can be unloaded after you return to the city.
