DayZ is a multiplayer open world survival horror video game in development by Bohemia Interactive and the stand-alone version of the award winning mod of the same name.

Gameplay

The mod places the player in the fictional post-Soviet state of Chernarus, where an unknown virus has turned most of the population into undead, violent zombies. As a survivor with limited supplies, the player must scavenge the world for supplies such as food, water, weapons and medicine, while killing or avoiding both zombies and other players and sometimes non-player characters - in an effort to survive the zombie apocalypse.

Development

On August 14, 2012, Dean Hall announced that the DayZ mod would be developed as a standalone game, with himself as project lead, but in conjuction with Bohemia Interactive.[1]
