Updates

Update 0.3.4

15 Nov 2026 · Regular Update

Solo revives, a slower spawn pace, Retry after a run and an Aftermath setting

Update 0.3.4 is out now.

New

• Interface: The after-action report has Retry and Look around buttons, and the host’s Continue takes the whole squad back
• Settings: Aftermath setting (Off, Low, Medium, High) sets how many chips, casings, gibs and guts are thrown
• Gameplay: Downed solo players get back up by scoring kills: 1 kill the first time, then one more each time, up to 5

General Updates

Lobby

• Mode, threat, Daily and privacy are kept between launches, and if the host leaves another player takes over
• Boot prints in the sand match the Beach map’s prints

Armory

• Guns stand upright, framed to their size; you spin the gun, and it no longer pops in or loads in pieces

Spawning

• Time between spawns increased from 1.15 s to 1.94 s in round 1, and Holdout stages end with a 20 s lull
• Zombies spawn at least 18 m away (was 8 m) and out of sight; on Beach they come from the sea and by parachute

Gore

• Gear straps and hoses swing and settle faster, stuck meat drops off over time, and drips stop after a minute

Camera

• Your helmet lamp no longer glares off your own gun and arms, and dims when you face a wall up close

Audio

• Explosions hit harder, each map has new ambience, a foghorn marks rounds and zombie warnings are clearer

Settings

• Halation is off by default for everyone; turn it back on in the options

Gameplay

• During a revive both players are held in place and both see a revive bar

Weapon Updates

Jerrycan

• Has its own key (4, or hold the flashlight button on a controller) and is no longer in the weapon cycle

Fixes

• Zombies: Those at the edge of reach swing instead of standing and staring, and thrown weapons show your grenade count
• Zombies: The Warden is no longer moved to new spawn points while out of sight late in a round
• Interface: Prompts switch between controller and keyboard only on real presses; held or stuck keys no longer force keyboard

Update 0.3.3

15 Nov 2026 · Major Update

Dawn and Radio operations, a daily operation, hazards and the jerry can

Update 0.3.3 is out now.

New

• New mode: Hold Until Dawn
  • A holdout that runs from night to sunrise on Beach, Village and Swamp; opens after Threat III
• New mode: Protect the Radio
  • A holdout with a radio to keep alive: zombies go for it and you hold the use key to repair it; opens after Threat IV
• New condition: Rain
• Operations: Daily operation: one operation a day, the same for everyone, with daily solo and squad leaderboards
• Operations: A run to an extraction zone ends each operation for bonus XP; supply drops and fog banks can arrive mid-run
• New weapon: JERRY CAN
  • Hold fire to pour an unbroken line of fuel as you walk; anything hot lights it. Carried beside your guns
• New weapon: TEST LASER
  • A test energy beam that melts through walls and fallen debris
• Weapons: With the hammer out, hold fire on open ground to plant a grenade on a stake
• World: Fuel drums leak, roll and burst in the sewer, village and swamp, and sewer pipes pour acid
• Interface: Artillery, bosses, rush rounds and drops are announced with a banner, edge flash and sound; bosses get a health plate

General Updates

Bunker

• The yard has a backdrop: watchtowers, a perimeter fence with breaches, camps and a forest ring

Beach

• The landing ramp has new sounds: a latch clack, a creak through the fall and a heavier slam

Village

• Houses get tie beams across their ceilings

Lobby

• One Operation panel holds the operation and its field orders, and your own plate opens Barracks

Weapons

• Scope shadow eases in at the edge of the eyebox, so working the bolt dims the lens

Zombies

• Brutes and bosses no longer fear fire, and dying zombies can thrash on their feet before they drop
• Shots and blasts lift and throw dead bodies

Destruction

• Walls under strain peel plaster, splinter timber and shake stones loose as they tear
• Fallen trees and broken pieces topple on any ground, and rounds kick loose pieces around
• Reeds and grass are cut where they are hit, cut tops fall as pieces, and grenades mow them down
• Time to link building joints on load decreased from 3.4 s to 0.5 s

Fire

• Burning eats into walls and floors, creeping and climbing; spilt fuel and acid pool like blood
• Lit fuel and burning fuel packs burn with the same small flames as torched bodies

Shock

• Electric burns go through clothing and skin, deeper with longer exposure, and bleed

Gore

• Limbs break at the joints, helmets pop off, and guts hang and trail from open wounds
• Bodies sever, split in two or drop in lumps depending on where the damage cut through them
• Blood pooled on an upper floor soaks through and drips from the ceiling below
• Floor blood streaks are slanted drops with tails and satellites, and Blood detail is its own setting

World

• Bunker and sewer rooms are rebuilt with smooth cast concrete: pillar feet, caps, ribs and trims

Camera

• Your body stays upright and sits back from the view, so looking down shows your chest

Audio

• Each map has its own room reverb, and walls muffle sounds behind them
• Fluorescent lamp buzz is much quieter and follows the ambience volume slider

Interface

• Menus are folded into seven rows; Service record holds career, operations, achievements, leaderboards and the manual
• Barracks puts loadout, skill tree and look on one page; tokens are spent in place
• The after-action report is four blocks, and parts, market and draft share one rarity scale
• Effect text is plain stat lines such as +8% Armor, with the flavour text removed
• All 46 achievement icons are redrawn in an inked graphic novel style

Gameplay

• The artillery pickup calls a full barrage that clears about half the field, with brighter gun flashes on the horizon

Weapon Updates

Blister

• Throws a liquid jet that breaks into strands, splashes off what it hits, and stains and wears walls and floors

Fixes

• Weapons: Several gun parts and skill nodes that had no effect now do what they say
• Zombies: Bodies falling a long way no longer jump mid-air, and ground kills no longer kick bodies up
• Zombies: Grass and leaves no longer shield zombies or corpses from blasts

Update 0.2.2

14 Nov 2026 · Major Update

Update 0.2.2 is out now.

New

• New mode: Hunt
  • Five rounds at any threat, each with a quarry whose death breaks the wave; opens after Threat II
• New order: Old Guard
• Progression: Weekly contracts: three goals each week that pay XP and claw tokens; each mode gets its own leaderboards

General Updates

Beach

• Craters on the beach hold calm pools, and waves roll over them
• Foam gathers around anything wading in the shallows, and bodies part the water
• Bodies get a ragged wet line at the water’s depth and dry off after leaving the sea

Village

• Barricade planks are built with the hammer, and the use key only opens doors
• Barricades keep an eye-height slit clear to see through
• Shop signs hang from posts and swing on their hooks

Weapons

• All guns are back to the blocky cube look
• Every gun has its own firing sounds, and shots fade out instead of cutting off

Zombies

• A flamer’s fuel pack can be set off by any gun and sprays burning jets; a dead flamer burns, then blows
• Grenadiers carry bigger yellow grenades on their chest so they stand out in a crowd
• A leg shot past its limit now comes off
• Tall sills are cleared in one hop, and crawlers stand up before they vault
• Skin scatters less light, so it looks less waxy

Destruction

• Arches stand, and breaks tear along joints and grain
• Parts left hanging swing from whatever still holds them
• Shots chip pieces out of bushes and thin plants
• Big collapses hitch less when buildings and trees start to fall

Fire

• Torched bodies and severed limbs burn with small flames
• Spilt fuel pools and trails where you can see it, catches from bullets, fire and blasts, and burns to soot

Gore

• Blood lands on your gun, arms and body, splashes back from point-blank kills, and wears off
• Blood spatter grows with the force of the hit, clusters on walls, and pools where it drips
• Bodies that fall from a height splat, and a new Blood detail option sets how sharp floor blood looks

Camera

• Looking down shows your whole torso, and your body casts a shadow again

Audio

• Your own gun sits above teammates’ guns, and the horde quietens under your shots
• Rooms and sewers have their own echo, and your own gun sounds drier indoors
• Music and ambience are louder, and the loudest effects were brought in line

Interface

• All 46 achievement icons are redrawn in one matching style

Gameplay

• GPU frame time in our heaviest benchmark decreased from 14.9 ms to 11.4 ms

• Lobby: Long titles on player plates wrap instead of being cut off

• Armory: The menu Armory no longer shows wrong prices; it lists your parts and gun level
