PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds is getting the Glock 18-C as a new weapon with the upcoming monthly update. The planned zombie mode will feature fast and vigilant player zombies.
What is worse than a horde of rotten zombies staggering towards you? A horde of rotten zombies rushing at you screaming! Such fast zombie hordes were disturbingly depicted in the movie World War Z and, according to lead developer Brendan Greene, soon in PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds.
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds – Zombies will find you!
The zombies from the planned zombie mode for PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds are supposed to be controlled by players and move quickly. However, they are unarmed and usually cannot pick up weapons. They must bite and tear their enemies in close combat.
To find their victims better, they are supposed to have sharp senses. Brendan Greene is thinking of enhanced hearing so that the undead can hear other players moving from a distance. Or that zombies can detect footprints.
PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds – More than just zombies – Content planned for the next 5 years
However, zombies are far from all that Brendan Greene has in mind for his game. Already, some new content has been added to the game, such as the VSS Vintorez or the recently introduced custom servers. These have so far only been made available to well-known streamers who have tested custom game modes, like a zombie horde mode. We have embedded a video of that here.
For future updates, Greene plans to implement a feature that allows you to jump over obstacles like garden fences or window frames. There will also be a replay feature and two new maps are definitely planned. For the major content update in June, the Glock 18-C pistol is on the agenda.
The gun can be either fully automatic or semi-automatic and can use a red dot sight and a suppressor. Overall, Brendan Greene claims that they have content plans for the next five years.
