A double kill in round 20 of a Zombiez arcade match as the Abomination closes in

Classic

Every round sends more zombies that are tougher, faster and hit harder. Armoured brutes join from round 20, every fifth round is a Hellhound pack, and every tenth brings the Abomination.

Hardcore

Zombies have 1.6 times the health and hit 1.5 times as hard. You earn 1.75 times the XP.

Infected

One random player becomes Patient Zero and hunts the team alongside the horde, respawning when they fall. Needs at least two players.

Ranked

Classic difficulty with store upgrades, store items and the Godslayer switched off. Every match moves your rating from Bronze to Master, and the top 10 Masters are Grandmasters.

Daily Run

A solo run on the day's map with a set loadout and two mutators, the same for everyone that day. Your first attempt is the one that counts.

Crash Site

Hold the military outpost at 3 am while the horde comes across a field of alien eggs, wrecked aircraft and campfires under the UFOs. It has its own quest, Signal from the Crash, and the Alien Overseer in place of the boss.

Sub-Station Z

A stormy night at a toxic substation with five perks, five wall buys, gates and an exfil.

Map Builder

Build your own maps with /zbuild or Map Builder in the Zombiez menu. Place spawns, wall buys, perk machines, crates, the Overclock Bench, gates and the exfil, and keep up to three drafts at a time.

Zombiez in the launcher.

A top-down take on the in-game mode, on the Crash Site, right inside the Plexa launcher. Play it while you wait for a friend, or when you have ten minutes and no scene.

  • The same rounds, guns and perks, with the Mystery Crate and the Overclock Bench (and the Godslayer)
  • Hellhounds, the Abomination, buff cards and exfil
  • Classic or Hardcore; keyboard and mouse or a controller
  • A 3D view, in beta: switch it on in the arcade's Settings

Single player and offline. Arcade levels, Bones and bests stay on your PC and never count towards your in-game Zombiez profile, rank or leaderboards.

How to start.

In the city

  1. Join PlexaRP or PlexaRP Balkan.
  2. Type /zombiez to open the lobby, or choose Zombiez instead of text roleplay when you pick your character.
  3. Quick Play, or make a lobby and invite up to five friends with its five-letter code.

  1. Get the Plexa launcher for Windows.
  2. Open Zombiez from the game tiles down the left.
  3. Pick Classic or Hardcore and press Play.

Questions

Do I have to roleplay to play Zombiez?

No. Choose Zombiez instead of text roleplay when you pick your character, and you wait in a private hub between matches. /zombiez rp takes you back to the city.

How many players can join a match?

Up to six. Infected needs at least two players, and the Daily Run is solo.

Does the arcade count towards my rank?

No. Arcade progress stays on your PC and never counts towards your in-game Zombiez profile, rank or leaderboards.

Where can I see the leaderboards?

On zombiez.plexarp.com: live matches, player profiles, match pages and leaderboards.

Is my progress tied to one character?

No. Zombiez XP, levels and ranks belong to your account, so every character on it shares them.

Hold the line.

Get the launcher, join PlexaRP and type /zombiez.
