This Museum Island recreates Old Earth as it was before the oceans rose and nearly wiped out humanity.

Archive, Inc. is the first island in the game Into the Breach. It is led by CEO Dewey Alms and has a Temperate environment.

Upon creation of a new save file Archive, Inc is always available.

Map[ | ]

The Museum Island of Archive, Inc. is made up of 8 regions numbered 0 to 7. Region numbers are fixed, but region names are randomized. Ignore the colors on the map. The location of the Corporate HQ is always randomized.

Missions can be attempted in 4 Regions before a Hive Leader attempts to destroy the Corporate HQ.

Regions must be unlocked by attempting to complete the objectives in an adjacent region.

In the example map, Region 0 was the Corporate HQ. Regions 2 and 6 are unlocked because those regions are adjacent to the Corporate HQ. Selecting the mission in Region 2 unlocked Regions 1 and 3. The mission in Region 6 unlocked Region 4 and the mission in Region 4 unlocked Regions 5 and 7. Having attempted the missions in Regions 2, 6, 4 and 5, seismic activity by the Vek attacking the Corporate HQ destroys Regions 1, 3, and 7.

Island-Specific Missions[ | ]

Advanced Edition missions are only encounterable if "Advanced Missions" are on for a timeline.
