Homestead Lore

Banov was once a thriving region — scattered towns, rolling farmlands, and industrial centers that fed the world. But that changed when the skies split open. Strange lights appeared at night, followed by sickness, mutation, and an uncanny silence in once-bustling cities. The government’s answer was secrecy: bunkers buried deep below the surface, each tasked with researching alien artifacts that had rained from the heavens.

Inside those labs, scientists uncovered technology far beyond human understanding. Weapons, optics, even experimental suits — all meant to prepare mankind for something greater… or more terrifying. But the research never stayed contained. Contamination leaked into the wild, spawning hybrid creatures and alien queens that now stalk Banov’s forests and ruins.

Survivors call this new world Homestead. Not for comfort, but for defiance — the last chance to carve out safety in the ashes of civilization. Here, every key, every bunker, every scrap of alien tech tells part of the story. The fight isn’t just against hunger or disease, but against forces from beyond the stars.

Homestead PvE is more than survival. It’s the frontier of humanity’s last stand — a place where courage, community, and resilience define who makes it to tomorrow.
