World War Z made headlines at its release with literal hordes of zombies as foes. Now, a new mode is coming with a free update – featuring even more zombies.
This mode is coming: The new mode announced by World War Z is called “Horde Mode Z” and increases the number of flesh-eating undead you must fight against even further. The mode comes as part of a free update.
World War Z itself already offers insane amounts of zombies. In Horde War Z, you defend a point against increasingly larger and stronger waves of zombies. You collect resources that can be used for things like:
- Turrets
- Defensive structures
- random weapons and tier upgrades
- heavy weapons
- Medkits and other equipment
During the rounds, you can also complete additional side tasks for even more resources and, if you’re quick, collect randomly scattered items. There is especially good loot in special military containers that you must blow open.
You play cooperatively with other players. The update is now available.
More content in World War Z
This is still in the update: In addition to the new mode, there will be other content available over the course of the current Season 2. A new type of zombie will be implemented: a bomber zombie.
The bomber carries explosives on his body and explodes when you hit him. You must target his limbs to bring him down and defuse his bombs. Then you will be rewarded with special loot from the zombie.
There will also be another paid DLC “Military Bundle” with special weapon skins. This costs €5.99 on PC and €6.99 on Xbox One. The bundle has not yet appeared in the PS Store (as of December 18).
These contents are still coming: In the last update of the season, there will also be more free content. This includes support for crossplay (presumably between all platforms PC, Xbox One, and PS4) and new free cosmetics.
More information about the upcoming updates will follow.
