Overview
POWERNAUT 2 plunges players into a post-apocalyptic future where cloning towers dominate a strange alien planet. Set thousands of years after the events of Powernaut Vangardt, the game follows VAN, a newly awakened clone who finds himself at the mercy of a world overrun by monsters. The core gameplay loop involves VAN battling his way down through infested towers, only for a security failsafe to trigger, causing the structure to collapse. VAN must then escape upwards, often finding himself teleported to the next tower in a seemingly endless cycle.
