Aiden is also equipped with tools like a grappling hook and a paraglider to aid in traversal.
Combat primarily revolves around melee weapons, although long-range weapons are also available. The game introduces new types of zombies, and the undead becomes more aggressive at night. Players can explore the vast city of Villedor, scavenge for resources, and make choices that shape the game's world and the perception of Aiden by non-playable characters. Multiplayer functionality allows for cooperative play with up to four players.
