Xbox One owners will get a chance to play DayZ, Bohemia Interactive’s survival game set in a zombie-infested world, later this month. Bohemia will release an early access version of DayZ through Microsoft’s Xbox Game Preview program on Aug. 29, the developer announced at Gamescom y.
The stand-alone version of DayZ has been in early access on Steam since 2013. Earlier this month, Bohemia let Xbox One players into its closed preview testing program, giving a small number of players access to the game.
The game is an open-world survival simulation in which players must fight for survival by scavenging for food, water, weapons and supplies, all while contending with zombie-like enemies as well as hostile players.
