Survival

Faction

Mutants

They may look a bit rough around the edges, but these mutants are the last remnants of humanity. Relying on their various mutations, mutants combat the many brutal threats that await them in the wasteland – often at the cost of their human features. Whether it means sneaking though the Zone, hacking through enemy defenses, or soaking up damage like a tank, mutants do what they must to survive.

LOCATION

The Arks

When the bombs fell, these bunkers were the only hope for humanity. Deep underground and packed with supplies, they were built to withstand the apocalypse and keep their occupants safe. Now, with the world above turned into a nuclear wasteland, these Arks represent the last bastion for mutants who want to rebuild some semblance of the long-gone human civilizations.

Faction

ROBOTS

With humans having destroyed themselves, their former robot servants are left in the dark - literally. As the world lays wasting in disrepair, and both resources and power become scant, fledgling robot societies that cropped up in man’s absence are collapsing. Some bots are choosing to shut down, rejecting the idea of living without their master, while others have unplugged from their network to try and learn more about their true nature.

CREATING MUTANT YEAR ZERO

Mutant was a tabletop RPG first published in the late 1980s before being officially rebooted in 2014 as Mutant Year Zero. Following its reboot, the Mutant Year Zero franchise has spawned several short stories, movies and a critically acclaimed video game adaptation Mutant Year Zero: Road to Eden.
