World War Z Horde Mode Map, Zombie & More Teased in New Screenshots

world war z update 1.06 patch notes

The long-anticipated World War Z Horde Mode Z  update is almost upon us, and to help draw up the excitement, Saber Interactive has released a number of new screenshots and gifs, showcasing the new map, zombie, weapons, and more!

First up is the reveal of the new zombie the dev teased last week. The zombie is called “Bomber” and much as we and many others speculated, this zombie will be the type that explodes as it nears players. We don’t have any video of it in action yet, though we do expect that to drop with the update trailer. For now, here’s a new screenshot of the zombie.

Next, we get out first look at how the map will look like in Horde Mode Z. As you can see, this is only a portion of the World War Z Horde Mode Z map showcasing the many defenses that players can set. These defenses should no doubt look familiar to those who played the single-player/co-operative mode, though they’ve clearly upped the amount that can be set by a large margin.

Here’s a look at the map in action!


Launching the same day is also a paid weapon skin pack called “The Special Operations Forces”, which will include a number of new weapon skins (no gameplay enhancements). You can view the skins down below.

The World War Z Horde Mode Z Update will be launching sometime this week. According to the season 2 roadmap, World War Z is also set to receive cross-play along with some paid character skins with this update.

According to the developers, this update will also come with a number of bug fixes, though nothing has been detailed yet. We will be sure to publish the patch notes as they go live later this week, so stay tuned!
