Longplay Studios opened the Steam store page for Terminus: Zombie Survivors 2 on September 2, 2026, and began accepting wishlist registrations. The release date and price remain undecided. The game is the sequel to Terminus: Zombie Survivors, which has sold over 150,000 cumulative copies on Steam. The sequel shifts from the predecessor's pixel art style to realistic 3D graphics and expands into a seamless open world. Players aim to survive a zombie-overrun world and reach the safe zone Terminus at the end of the railway. Exploration connects towns, forests, and highways, with facilities such as motels, diners, gas stations, supermarkets, churches, and hospitals offering supplies. Survival mechanics include cooking, farming, fishing, crafting tools, and managing fires against rain, snow, and cold. Weather effects like fog and wet roads affect visibility and require situational judgment. Zombie variety ranges from indoor lurkers to street-filling hordes and giant specimens. Online co-op supports up to six players. The developer is an indie studio based in Daejeon, South Korea, founded in 2021, whose debut work won the Indie Game Award at the 2024 Korea Game Awards.
The occupation system is the defining feature of Terminus: Zombie Survivors 2. A character's previous job, whether firefighter, teacher, nurse, bus driver, or police officer, determines their post-apocalyptic way of life. Each profession survives the end of the world differently, adding a layer of role-playing to the survival loop.
Encounters extend beyond zombies. Looters appear, forcing players to choose between trading supplies or hiding and waiting them out. The railway tracks to Terminus can be traveled alone or with friends in online co-op, where division of labor suits the survival tasks: someone cooks, someone repairs walls, someone watches the door.
The predecessor holds a 'Very Positive' rating on Steam, with 94% of 4,315 reviews positive. The sequel supports seven languages: Japanese, English, Korean, Simplified Chinese, Traditional Chinese, German, and French. It is scheduled for release on PC via Steam.
