Our take on HALF DEAD 2
Players who expect a purely cooperative run may hit a wall when a session turns to PvP, where other players can become armed opponents. Those who dislike trap-focused room progression may also lose interest while navigating the multi-floor network.
What is HALF DEAD 2?
Enter a multi-storey building made up of rooms containing deadly traps.
Players can work together in co-op or choose PvP, where weapons can be used against other players. The setting is a futuristic survival contest involving criminals and rebels sent into a network of dangerous rooms. The game includes multiple floors, protective equipment, character customization, and support for up to 16 players on the same map. Players move through the rooms while dealing with traps and, in PvP, armed opponents. The building’s rooms form a network that players must navigate across several floors.
