The game contains 5 chapters represented by the 5 stages of DEFCON:

DEFCON 5  - the initial stage of the outbreak, the first contact of the strike team with the quarantine city.

DEFCON 4 - things spice up, new types of infected appear, maps become bigger, and event pools refresh.

DEFCON 3 - here there will be all Bosses encounters. Think outside the box.

DEFCON 2 - all you learned so far and more, maps become bigger, all stakes are amplified, and difficulty is increased.

DEFCON 1 - all choices you made so far in the game since the beginning will now have a direct impact on the gameplay and on the ending cutscene.

Each difficulty setting has its unique layout in how many days each DEFCON has.
