Pandemic: State of Emergency Expansion raises the stakes and intensifies the global crisis in the world of Pandemic, introducing bold new challenges, fresh mechanics, and multiple ways to play. This expansion is designed for players who want to take their cooperative gameplay to new levels of urgency, strategy, and thematic immersion.

Inside State of Emergency, you’ll find three modular additions that can be mixed and matched with the base game and previous expansions:

• The Hinterlands Challenge: Diseases are now spreading from animals to humans! Players must travel to remote regions and build outposts to contain outbreaks originating from animal populations before they evolve and become unmanageable.
• The Emergency Events Challenge: Sudden, unpredictable events throw your plans into chaos. Emergency Event cards add pressure and volatility, forcing teams to adapt quickly to new threats, restrictions, and setbacks.
• The Superbug Challenge: Introduces a fifth disease — the Superbug — which cannot be treated by standard methods. To stop it, players must develop a vaccine while simultaneously managing the other global outbreaks. This is the toughest test for experienced teams.

Also included are new role cards, event cards, and updated components to support the new modes. Whether you're looking to boost the difficulty, introduce thematic variety, or push your team’s coordination skills to the limit, State of Emergency offers plenty of fresh content for diehard Pandemic fans.
