Z Ops: DeadZone

Z Ops: DeadZone is a survival game in which you play as a Z Ops agent entering contaminated zones to recover resources, investigate the catastrophe’s origins and try to reclaim lost territory. A parasite called Bane-Z spreads rapidly; once it infects the brain, its host becomes an aggressive creature that no longer responds to anything. Cities lie abandoned and their infrastructure has collapsed, while the Z Ops continue to fight.

Raid in contaminated zones

Each raid sends you into an infected area to complete objectives, search buildings, fight Bane-Z and reach an extraction point. Gunshots attract the infected, and staying too long or making a mistake can put your carried equipment and resources at risk: if you die, you lose everything you were carrying.

Combat emphasizes precision and resource management. Bane-Z are difficult to kill, and in most situations a precise headshot is the most effective way to neutralize them. You must keep track of your health, hunger, stamina, ammunition and resources while alone in a contaminated zone.

Return to the Colony

Between raids, you prepare for your next expedition at the Colony, a safe area where you can manage equipment, store resources, accept side quests, buy equipment and launch raids. What you bring back from contaminated zones directly determines your progression.

Face the Bane-Z

Bane-Z vary in speed and behavior. Some are fast and aggressive, able to close the distance in seconds; others move more slowly but remain dangerous if they surround you. A poorly managed fight can attract more infected than you expect.

Current equipment and map

The first available weapons are the ZAR-1 versatile assault rifle, the reliable P9 pistol and a baseball bat for close encounters. The current playable zone is Volygrad, a contaminated area where you can encounter the raid mechanics, loot system and Bane-Z for the first time.
