THE EXTRACTION LOOP
Fight. Loot. Extract. Build.
Dead Sector combines third-person PvE combat, persistent online progression and a personal Safe Base. Push deeper for better rewards, or extract before a bad run costs the loot you are carrying.
02 // FIGHT
Clear rooms and threats
Fight infected enemies, elite encounters, objectives and multi-phase bosses.
03 // RECOVER
Loot what matters
Recover equipment, blueprints, materials and progression resources from the sector.
04 // EXTRACT
Get out alive
Reach extraction and bring the run home to your persistent operative and Safe Base.
PLAY YOUR WAY
Co-op missions and dedicated PvP.
The extraction game and arena combat have different goals. Co-op is about surviving a run and bringing progression home. PvP is a dedicated competitive space with its own match rules.
ONLINE CO-OP
Bring up to five operatives.
Form a party, ready up, revive teammates and carry persistent characters through extraction missions together.

Deathmatch and Capture the Flag.

Industrial ruins. Lunar facilities. More routes ahead.
Current missions move between very different combat spaces, with the teleporter network designed to expand into additional worlds as development continues.
PLAYABLE SECTOR
Warehouse 13
Industrial corridors, nests, relays, lockdown rooms and the Warden boss.
PLAYABLE SECTOR
Lunar Base
Frozen lunar facilities, airlocks, environmental hazards and Sentinel-grade threats.
EXPANDING ROUTE NETWORK
Future sectors
Additional mission families and hostile worlds are planned as the online game grows.
WAREHOUSE 13
The Warden waits at the end of the run.
Boss encounters use phases and dedicated presentation instead of simply adding more health to a normal enemy.
LUNAR BASE
Different sector. Different pressure.
Lunar routes bring airlock spaces, resource objectives and a colder sci-fi environment into the extraction loop.
PERSISTENT PROGRESSION
Your run ends. Your operative continues.
Gear, skill choices, research, crafting, records and Safe Base modules connect individual missions to a persistent online character.
Four active abilities
Your equipped weapon defines four active skills, including an ultimate that charges during combat.
Damage, Tank, Healer, Specialist
Four role trees scale skills, survivability, healing, control and ultimate charge toward different play styles.
Build your headquarters
Upgrade and arrange persistent modules including Workbench, Fabricator, Research, Medbay and Power systems.
