The new "Battle of Arizona" update is now freely available to all players of World War Z: Aftermath. This new update adds a new map for the game's Horde Mode XL and is playable right now on Steam, Epic Games Store, PlayStation 5, and Xbox Series X|S.
The new map is set in an abandoned military museum in Phoenix, Arizona.
Also released today is the new Desert Defenders Weapons Pack. This paid content adds a Kukri melee weapon plus four desert-themed, military-grade weapon skins for the DE50 pistol, 1877 SBL rifle, TMP5 SMG, and M500 shotgun. What the heck is a "military-grade weapon skin" as it applies to a virtual weapon skin? Well that beats the heck out of me. If you want those military-grade weapon skins and new weapon, that'll cost you $4.99.
In addition, today’s “Battle of Arizona” update features free content for all owners of the original World War Z and World War Z: Aftermath, including:
- New Power-up – Improving Bags: Discover all-new Improving Bag power-ups on PvE and Horde Mode maps for a crucial advantage in the heat of battle! Arm yourself with a variety of bonuses, including a unique boost to strikes, increased ammo capacity, and an additional equipment slot.
- Class Swapping in Horde Mode and Horde Mode XL: Players can now change their class once during each preparation wave, giving you a chance to adjust your tactics in a pinch!
- Custom Player Portrait Frames: Show off your accomplishments with new customizable player portrait frames, which are displayed in lobbies and on the scoreboard.
