Can you make it alive?

You're Jack Carver, stranded on a remote tropical island. A legion of elite mercenaries equipped with a military stockpile is rapidly closing in.

Outmanned and outgunned, your survival won't come easy. Only with skill, instincts, and ingenuity you can conquer the enemy and make it out alive.

In the open-ended tropical environment, discover many ways to kill. Set up and unleash brutal jungle traps. Commit stealth kills amidst the foliage. Snipe from extreme distances. Steal the enemy's weapons and launch brutal counter-assaults over land, sea, and air ranging from hand-to-hand strikes to rocket salvos. To conquer the mercenaries' Full Action Response A.I., you must develop skills you never thought you had.

Open season in a 100% open environment: do whatever it takes to exterminate the mercenaries, in any situation! Take cover in the undergrowth, set traps and kill by stealth. Battle from extreme long range, from gun-mounted vehicles. Fight in close quarters or through the wilds of the island.
