Press release:
Wiesbaden, Germany – 24th February, 2022.
Dawn breaks on a new day, centuries into the future after humanity’s apparent end.

Today, life flourishes in the critically acclaimed survival city-builder “Endzone – A World Apart” as publisher Assemble Entertainment and developer Gentlymad Studio unveil an all-new DLC chapter titled, “Distant Places,” releasing on Steam and GOG.com in May 2022.

Boasting over 4,500 positive reviews on Steam, Endzone – A World Apart puts players in charge of rebuilding society in a world ravaged by a global nuclear holocaust. Colony denizens face realistic and terrifyingly prescient crises like radioactive soil, scarce clean water supplies, and tumultuous and deadly storms. Additionally, the struggling society is under threat of raiders — roving gangs of resource-hungry wasteland warriors who pillage settlements and steal valuable assets.

The Distant Places DLC takes place centuries after settlers were able to regain a foothold on the surface of Earth after having been in subterranean bunkers for over 150 years to escape a radioactive hellscape on the ground above. The DLC introduces some highly requested features, such as brand new territories to discover and explore via Hot Air Balloon; settlers of the “endzone” will be able to fly to unseen destinations far beyond their usual borders in search of other displaced survivors, new food items, and brand new building blueprints.

Key Features of Endzone’s “Distant Places” DLC Include:

A Story Untold: Experience 12 story-driven, large-scaled global expeditions that take you to four varied, yet unseen places of the world. Suited for only the most well-equipped adventurers, they offer uncertain but very rewarding outcomes.
Brick by Brick: Support and expand the settlement with new buildings by discovering blueprints during treacherous new expeditions
Beyond the Mysterious Beyond: Driven by an insatiable quest for knowledge and resources, settlers can take to the skies aboard their purpose-built hot air balloon in search of new opportunities
Exotic Foods: Give the gift of scurvy prevention, by letting settlers experience the unique tastes and merits of six all-new exotic seeds like coconuts and bananas

Endzone – A World Apart: Distant Places will be available via Steam and GOG.com for Windows PC in May 2022 for £6.49 / €7.99. In keeping with the game’s theme, Endzone – A World Apart is available as one of Assemble’s “Save the World” editions, which comes with extra goodies like the official soundtrack.

Assemble has partnered with the environmental activist organisation One Tree Planted for Endzone’s Save the World Edition, which means for every copy sold, the company plants an actual tree in damaged forests around the globe. To date, more than 40,300 trees have been planted around the globe as a result of the partnership!
