‘King of the Kill’ and ‘Just Survive’
Daybreak plans to split up its multiplayer zombie survival gameH1Z1on Jun 17, 2025.
It’s becoming two titles:H1Z1: Just Survive, an apocalyptic open-world experience with the usual scavenging and crafting, andH1Z1: King of the Kill, a “large-scale” multiplayer shooter. The former will be on Steam Early Access “through the end of the year,” while the latter hopes to come out of Early Access this summer with a full PC, PlayStation 4, and Xbox One release.
The idea here is to appeal to “two distinct communities,” according to Daybreak CEO Laura Naviaux. The split-apart games are even being madeby separate internal development teams.
CurrentH1Z1owners and anyone else who nabs it before February 17 will getKing of the KillandJust Surviveat no additional cost. Otherwise, they’re going to be $19.99 a piece.
With all that out of the way, I think someKing of the HillPhotoshops are in order.
