## Summary

*America, 1900. The western states are experiencing an economic boom fueled by an interest in mining for natural resources, powered by a new railroad. But something else has crippled the region: the rise of Undead monsters who attack the citizens every night. As a member of The Law, it’s up to you to put an end to this misery, and rule the ascendancy of the Undead once and for all.*

Revengeance II is a sequel to the first map, taking place three years after the first map. In the year 1900, the Undead have returned and this time to the mainland states, including the large city of Cristoforo and its surrounding regions. Once again, the Bandits are responsible for the chaos and the player, as Joey Dmitri, must work with his cousin Dustin Dmitri and save the world a second time. The map is set not only in the city of Cristoforo but the surrounding four states, each with their own diverse regions and biomes.

## History

Work on Revengeance II began on May 26, 2023, and the map was completed just three months later, on August 28, 2023. The in-game world was crafted via WorldPainter and (including the cities) took one month to make, finishing in late June. The story and other redstone mechanics took two months (though Chris6d completed the script in only one day). Map testing commenced in late August and early September 2023, and the map was officially released on October 3, 2023.

### Success

Revengeance II was released to critical acclaim, and was even the top map on Minecraft Maps for three straight weeks, from October 3-22. It also surpassed Torn: Origins, a previous Chris6d map, for having the most YouTube videos made of it by various YouTubers. All videos of Revengeance II can be viewed in the official playlist.

## Features

The map contains many of the features present in the first Revengeance, but greatly expanded upon. Additional features include Campsites, Fast Travel, and a plethora of new items.

### Open World

Like Chris6d's other maps, Revengeance II is an open world map, meaning the player is free to explore the city of Cristoforo, as well as the surrounding towns of Acacia, Tamarillo, and Petrichor. As opposed to the first map, this map features four entire new states (Grillo, Petagna, Derettas, and Leoreden) which each feature their own unique biomes and regions. The in-game world is over six times larger than the first map, and is by far Chris6d's biggest open world. New biomes not present in the original map include the desert, badlands, a tropical island, a birch forest, and snowy mountains.

### Full Campaign

Revengeance II consists of ten Quests (story missions) which the player must play to advance the story and unlock certain items. The map also features the Business aspect from the first map, where the player can run and manage an in-game Business to earn Coins, the in-game currency. This time, however, there are two new Businesses the player can run, for a total of three Businesses as opposed to the first map's one.

### Jumpscares

This map plays into its horror aspect by featuring true jumpscares. During certain Quests, if the player walks into the vision of an Undead Eye, there will be a large jumpscare that scares the player. The map also contains other horror elements such as dark areas and creepy sound effects (and even a few creepypasta Easter eggs).

### Currency & Upgrades

A major feature of Revengeance II is the in-game currency system, which uses Coins as its form of currency like the first game. Coins are used to buy every item in the game, ranging from food to weapons to armor to miscellaneous items. Coins can be earned by playing story missions (Quests), running the Businesses, defeating enemies, Gambling, and more.

### Campfires & Fast Travel

A new feature of Revengeance II is Campfires, which the player can set up around the in-game world. These replace Safehouses from the first game and at Campfires, the player can Sleep, cook raw food, store spare items, and Fast Travel between other Campsites. The player can also use Cable Cars to fast travel around Cristoforo, and the Railroad to fast travel between the three major settlements.

### Achievements & Boss Battles

Like the first map, Revengeance II consists of three custom Boss Battles that occur in Quests 4, 7 and 10, respectively. The map also consists of 15 in-game Achievements that the player can earn. By earning all 15, they will earn 100% completion on the map.
