STORY
A pseudo-historical sequence of events…
The legendary mercenary Big Boss leads an army that belongs to no nation. Under the guise of a nuclear inspection by the IAEA, a hostile force known as XOF launches a surprise attack on Mother Base, Big Boss's base of operations. His soldiers put up a desperate fight, but their efforts are in vain, as Mother Base falls.
A moment after Big Boss escapes the area by helicopter, an intense light appears in the sky, and a wormhole opens over the base. The wormhole begins to suck up everyone and everything left, transporting them to some parallel world. A soldier who helped Big Boss get away is almost pulled into it as well, but manages to escape. A close friend of the soldier, however, isn't as lucky.
The soldier then mysteriously loses consciousness, waking up six months later in a facility belonging to Wardenclyffe Section, a secretive research organization of the U.S. government. A member of this organization, a man known as Goodluck, gives the soldier a special assignment with the following order: "You don't get to sit this one out. You're already infected with that lifeform I was telling you about."
The soldier then travels alone to the same parallel world -- to find a cure for this infection, and to rescue those sucked into the wormhole half a year ago. Waiting on the other side is a hellish landscape where victims of the infection have transformed into grotesque creatures known as Wanderers. The soldier also encounters a member of none other than XOF, and together their bitter struggle for survival begins...

Interceptor Units & Defensive Units
Sandbag barricades not only stop the enemy progression, they can also be used as higher ground for more efficient attacks.
Traps are one of the many types of Interceptor Units featured in the game. They can be very useful to slow down the enemy assault if placed on the creatures’ path.
Fences are the most common Defensive Unit. Striking with weapons such as spears can be used to attack the creatures gathered against the fences.

The perfect timing to go for those missions is between enemy waves. Communicate with your teammates to make sure the roles are well allocated among you. Some must stay behind to strengthen the defenses while the others are exploring the surroundings trying to clear those side missions.

CREATURES
A brief overview of the creatures that dominate this world.
A creature that you will frequently encounter while exploring the mist.
Wanderers are not highly intelligent and are weak at recognizing nearby enemies, making it easier to square them off one by one.
However, they can become distinctly tough to beat when you encounter them as a horde.
A creature that appears to have an abnormally swollen head and is considered to be a sort of subspecies of the Wanderer.
These creatures have a tendency to violently explode upon their death so you must be careful about how you deliver the final blow.
Some reports have cited cases where they did not explode, however, the reason behind these cases remains unknown.
