When a player's healthbar reaches zero or they fail to meet a critical objective, they will be met with a Game Over. A Game Over comes in the form of an all black screen, with the words "GAME OVER" in white letters. If an enemy killed the player, it will sometimes show the enemy, at the center of the screen, above the game over message and with a quote above their head. However, based on the settings, the game over screen could be different, as just showing the player's corpse, the area going dark, a light coming over the player, and the words "GAME OVER" at the top of the screen. In this type of screen, the message fades away when the "CONTINUE" option appears. If the player is knocked out but not killed, they will still be able to see themselves in the screen, but will not be able to move, and will not get the option to continue. Instead, they will get a countdown until they wake up. If they are killed while unconscious, they will get a standard game over screen. If they are knocked out and thus unable to complete a critical objective, they will get a black game over screen, but with the knocked out message to accompany it instead. After getting a game over, the player will have the option to Respawn or quit the game.

Game Over messages[]

Most of these only apply to the default, black screen game over screens. Location related game overs only come from being killed by environmental damage and have a 50% chance of being shown if killed by one of its location-specific enemies.
