Survival Mode is a game mode only available on the Xbox Director's Cut version of Fatal Frame II. It is significantly challenging compared to the normal game and contains a new boss, which was not available in the PlayStation 2 original. The mode requires the player to navigate through Minakami Village. Normal routes are frequently blocked, so the player must find new ones. Certain new costumes can be unlocked by clearing - or indirectly as a result of clearing - Survival Mode under certain conditions (see Unlockables section).

About

Survival Mode becomes available for purchase from the load menu after completing the main game and loading a cleared game save file, at a cost of 28,000 spirit points. Starting from Misono Hill, players guide Mio through The Lost Village in order to reach the final boss at the Hellish Abyss. The mode is timed, with a clock running in the bottom left corner of the screen. Along the route are many difficult combinations of ghosts, including multiple instances of the same ghost appearing simultaneously in groups, which will attempt to stop the player from progressing. A single hit from a ghost will kill Mio unless the player is in possession of a stone mirror, of which only one can be carried at a time, which takes the place of the normal health meter and is displayed on the right side of the screen. If Mio is attacked while in possession of a stone mirror, it will break and save her one time only. Any subsequent hits sustained before obtaining another stone mirror will cause a game over screen. No other healing items are present. Similarly to missions, the player is given a grade representing their performance after clearing the mode; ranks rage from E to SE/SS. Players are graded on clear time; completing the mode in less than 30 minutes will result in an SE/SS ranking. Film purchased from the in-game shop carries over to the Survival Mode inventory, which may aid the player.
