High damage melee with extended range

BATTLEZONE UPDATES

Battlezone receives balancing improvements and new features!

INCREASED PLAYER HEALTH

Player damage resistance has been increased to match Survival.

INCREASED EXTRACTION HELICOPTER HEALTH

The Extraction Helicopter has increased damage resistance, making it more resilient against enemies.

NEW BOMB OBJECTIVES

Bomb crates can now be found, awarding loot when successfully destroyed!

Zombies and Infestors are attracted to planted bombs, so they can be used to kill groups of enemies.

Enemy mercenaries will attempt to defuse planted bombs, so make sure to defend them!

ADDED AIRPORT

The Airport map has been added to the random Battlezone map generation.

SCOREBOARD IMPROVEMENTS

The Scoreboard (pressing Tab in game) has been updated to include more player details relevant to the current game mode, like Battlezone loot or current Survival money.
