Key information
The Isles of Abyss expansion for Once Human introduces Haywire Zones, which are specific map areas impacted by random environmental crises. These weather phenomena occur across the oceanic archipelago, presenting significant challenges for players navigating the islands or traveling by ship.
These zones function as dynamic weather events that can negatively affect player sanity, temperature, visibility, and supply consumption rates. Players must prepare adequately to defend themselves against these hostile conditions while exploring points of interest.
Despite the dangers, these zones are valuable because they produce special resources. Players are encouraged to monitor the world map, which displays icons and timers indicating the duration of active zones or the arrival of upcoming environmental events.
