The Wasteland is a desolate and unforgiving environment where the ruins of once-great cities, now decayed and overtaken by nature, blend with remnants of advanced technology like broken drones and decaying robotics. This setting poses immense challenges to survivors, including resource scarcity and threats from lingering drones. In the game, players navigate this hostile terrain to find unique items, engage in combat for survival, and attempt successful extractions, embodying the struggle and resilience required in this new, devastated world.
??? known as "The Wasteland" in Eden: Discovery, is a desolate, once-powerful naval base located in the historic region of Mesopotamia, nestled between the Tigris and Euphrates rivers. This old and deserted area, lying just a few kilometers from Eden City, has become a critical resource zone for Eden Settlers.
The Settlers have developed an efficient pod system for safe travel between Eden City and The Wasteland. Upon their initial arrival, the Settlers encountered hostile autonomous drones, which appeared to be refurbished military units. The origins, purpose, and refurbishment of these drones remain shrouded in mystery, adding a layer of intrigue and danger to this already foreboding landscape.
??? has multiple key locations:
The Ship
Dominating the landscape of ??? is a colossal ship, a relic of a turbulent past, believed to have been thrust onto land by a violent storm during a nuclear winter. This ship stands as a silent testament to the chaotic events that reshaped the world during the nuclear apocalypse.
The Hospital
A place steeped in history and tragedy, the Hospital is a key location within ???. It's a haunting reminder of the past, with countless body bags still found on site. Adventurous Settlers who dare to explore its confines face the risk of never returning.
The Village
Amidst the ruins, an abandoned village shows unmistakable signs of life post-apocalypse, hinting at a previous settlement. The details about this village are sparse, shrouded in mystery, and a source of intrigue and speculation among the Settlers.
The Alamo
Known colloquially among Settlers as "The Alamo," this site marks the location of the last stand of the local militia against the autonomous military drones. It's a place of significant historical importance, symbolizing the resilience and struggle of the human spirit against overwhelming odds.
The objective is simple: find the exfiltration point and survive. In this ruthless environment, anything goes. The gameplay combines elements of a battle royale—scavenge for loot to survive—and an exfiltration mode, where escaping with your life is the ultimate victory. Weapons are NFTs, and when you die, you lose them—only to have your killer claim them along with any attachments. On the flip side, taking down an opponent means you can upgrade your arsenal with their gear.
In Eden: Discovery, looting is crucial for survival. Players must venture into The Wasteland, where they can scavenge for loot in various ways: in loot crates, by defeating drones, and scavenging from fallen players. Loot crates primarily contain quest items, and firearms + attachments. Additionally, loot canisters scattered around the map offer essential resources.
