In Dead Trigger 2, one of the new features added to the game are friendly non-player characters (sometimes referred to in-game as "sidekick", "crash survivor", simply "survivor" or technician"). If lucky enough, one or two friendly NPC survivors can spawn in a Defend or Assault mission, and they always spawn in Escort missions. If NPCs are seen in Defend or Assault missions it is not necessary to keep them alive, but they can be helpful. Opposed to that, it is important to keep them alive in Escort missions, because their death will lead into a failed mission. All NPCs wield a Glock 17 pistol.
The survivors from the Hideout can also appear as NPCs. They are usually safe for zombies standing behind a wall to receive boxes from Kyle.
