The War Z describes itself as a survival horror MMO, pitting players in a world of zombies and humans in a fight for survival the likes of which we haven’t seen since, well, Day Z. Yes, The War Z takes a great deal of inspiration from the mod to Arma II, even down to the pricing of $30 for the game with no subscription fees. The War Z is currently being developed by Hammerpoint Interactive, a relatively new developer, and is on track for a release this fall. Yes, an MMO set to release within just a quarter or two of being revealed.
Players play on standard servers, of 200 – 400 square kilometers, and will be able to choose from normal and hardcore mode. There will be player vs player combat, and of course player vs zombie. Each server will support up to 250 players, and players will be able to purchase and manage their own War Z servers. As mentioned above, there is no subscription fee for The War Z. The game will be maintained with regular content updates for free, but we aren’t discounting the possibility of a cash shop.
