Description

Generation Zero for PC is a post-apocalyptic game set in an alternative reality Sweden in 1989, when killer robots have overrun the world. Play is from a cooperative first person shooter perspective and is set in an open world that positively invites exploration.

About the Game


The game’s graphics are beautiful and have been compared to the artworks of digital artist Simon Stalenhag although both the artist and the game developers have said that this is an accidental coincidence.

Players can choose their ‘type’ as a character, with choices defining him or her as a ‘jock’ or a ‘nerd’ or a ‘punk’ – whichever your 80s vibe feels most comfortable with! While it is clear that your mission is to find out what happened and who caused the invasion as well as looking for survivors, should there be any, you are not tied to following a strict progression.

You can choose your own path, exploring the world in your own time and following the story as and when you choose to. This makes for a more dynamic gaming experience as you can perform those tasks that interest you, rather than being funnelled along a tight story arc with no time or leeway to explore.

The way gameplay is set out actively encourages this. There are no map markers to aim for: instead you explore your environment and engage with it, discovering map fragments, or short missions which, when complete, give you a hint about what to do next – when you feel like it!

Ways to Play


Single player involves the player taking on the persona of a Swedish teen returning home after a trip away, only to find that his home has been taken over by the killer robots. He seeks to avoid their lethal attentions even as he battles to find out what happened to his family.

In cooperative play, the player can team up with three friends – or strangers – to work together to uncover the mystery of what happened to the inhabitants of the house. As always, this provides a great opportunity for camaraderie and banter as you work together to defeat the machines and solve puzzles to find information.

Fun Facts About the Game


  • The game designers based the location on their own childhood memories of playing in the Swedish forests. This gives the game’s setting an eerie realism as well as a spectacularly sinister vibe instantly recognisable to anyone who played in such surroundings as an imaginative child when a monster could lurk behind every tree

  • There are six different kind of robots – most of them lethal, but some more so than others! See if you can get them all in one game

  • Husband your ammunition is a key tip. While loot is reasonably plentiful, it is still very possible for the unwary to run out of ammo, leaving them at the mercy of the mechs, as the killer robots are known, until they can restock

  • Use one of the massive 80s-style boomboxes as bait. Mechs are always curious about noise and you can leave one playing as you set up an ambush for them. Or, if you are about to be trapped, you can lob one off to the side and make a sneaky escape as your assailants run off to see what all the commotion is about

  • The more advanced robots have armour: if you can damage or remove the armour, the robots are much easier to knock out of commission

    • Generation Zero for PC is available for purchase on Instant Gaming for a fraction of its retail price. You will receive an official key and be able to play the game in seconds. Play smart. Pay less.

    Great game with good gunplay, stealth, looting, and shooter mechanics. Story is also very immersive and fun with a very open world.
    • Good Gunplay
    • Great Looting System
    • Open World
    • Can have performance issues for lower end pcs
    Very cool
    • Cool
    A really nice game to play with people. The story itself was not really interesting to me but the gameplay and ennemies definitely made it more fun and even more with some friends! Grinding and farming ennemies to loot this op weapon you wished for is definitely a good feeling haha. On the other hand I wish the world was a bit more alive with npcs or beautiful panoramas.
    • Gameplay
    • Ennemies
    • Fun with friends
    • Lack of life in general, few npc
    Great game that you can play for hours. Can be difficult to play without friends sometimes as there can be many machines at once. Some machines take time to destroy without good weapons. Would like more types of companions.
    • Graphics
    • Robots
    • Can have companion robot
    • Can be buggy
    • Hard if you dont have god weapons
    • More types companions
    Amazing Graphics, cool robots, The map of the game is insanely large with a whole lots of variety in missions, side quests and jut killing machines in general. At one point you can even have a companion.
    • Robots
    • Good Weapon Variety
    • Massive Map
    • Kind of Janky
    • Can be Buggy Sometimes
    • nothing else
    Fantastic Game, The Graphics Are 10/10 You Might just get lost in the beauty of the scenery, The story should keep you busy for at least 12 Hours, there is also a lot of Secondary objectives sprinkled all around the Map.

    The combat is also very polished, and you get access to a huge Arsenal of Guns
    • Ethereal Atmosphere
    • The Game encourages you to Exploit the Enemies weakness
    • Huge Map
    • High End PC Required
    • You will Die if you make a single mistake when facing Enemies
    • Map can feel empty (Devoid of Life)
    Nice graphics and the campain is nice when played with friends. The tutorial is a bit long and boring since you cannot go and do as you please. Altought the feeling of having the big open world up to you is fun.
    • graphics
    • multiplayer well made
    • realistic gunfight
    • not a lot of weapons
    • looting is redundant
    • long tuto
    The game is fun and scary to play with your buddies. I enjoyed it a lot. It has some bugs and issues but its amazing at how much fun you can have. My over all review:

    -Fun to play

    -I kissed your mom
    • mwah
    • no mwah
    it is a great game exept there is a new glitch with every update it has a very good campaign but you kinda have to play with friends because of how difficult it is but other than those points it is a lovely game with some lovely scenery!
    • great game
    • alot of glitches
    Chouette jeu d'exploration et de survie.Un peu lent à certains moments ou long a trouver les quêtes .Encore pas mal de bug et beaucoup de décors de batiments fort ressemblant, mais un décor et une nature extérieure très bien faites.Plus sympa en multi qu'en solo.J'ai connu 2 crashs jusqu'a present
    • scénario
    • Graphisme
    • décor exterieur vaste
    • bug quêtes et crash
    • decor batiments fort ressemblant les uns les autres
    • plus amusant en multi
