• AS-44 The AS-44 (Avtomat Sudayeva, Russian: , -44) is a series of prototype Soviet assault rifles designed and developed by Alexey Sudayev in 19441945, they were produced in limited numbers and tested in 19441945, but its development ended in 1946 due to the death of its designer.

• MG42 The MG 42 (shortened from German: Maschinengewehr 42, or "machine gun 42") is a German recoil-operated air-cooled general-purpose machine gun used extensively by the Wehrmacht and the Waffen-SS during the second half of World War II. Entering production in 1942, it was intended to supplement and replace the earlier MG 34, which was more expensive and took much longer to produce, but both weapons were produced until the end of World War II.

Zombie Update

Following our recent trailers, we received a lot of feedback about our Grunt zombiesspecifically, that there are just too many Officers roaming around. We couldnt agree more! So, we jumped right into action and created a new variant of the Grunt to balance things out. Along with introducing this fresh take on the Grunt, we're excited to unveil something even more unique: one of our special zombies, the Radioactive Zombie, also known as the Jumper. This distinctive enemy will add a whole new level of challenge and excitement to your encounters.

• Radioactive Zombie (Jumper) The Radioactive Zombie, also known as the Jumper, is one of the most dangerous enemies youll face. Highly agile and unpredictable, this zombies intense radioactivity has given it a unique ability to teleport short distances, allowing it to close in or escape in an instant. With its rapid movement and disorienting attack style, every encounter with the Jumper will demand quick reflexes and a well-planned strategy to survive.
