DayZ fans rejoice as we will be receiving a new map for the zombie apocalypse simulator very soon!
Announced today, DayZ fans can expect to see the Livonia DLC map to show up on all platforms very soon. Developer Bohemia Interactive didn’t give an exact release date, but told us it should be soon. However, they did release a new trailer which manages to showcase the new map very beautifully.
Check out the new DayZ Livonia DLC announcement trailer down below:
Anna Buenafe Brand Manager at Bohemia Interactive took to the PlayStation Blog to discuss a little more about the upcoming Livonia map for DayZ. Check out what Buenafe had to say down below:
Based on the recently released map from the Arma 3 Contact spin-off expansion, the Livonia region brings a fresh new experience to the post-apocalyptic world of DayZ. With vast green landscapes, dense expansive forests, serene lakes, and winding rivers, the 163km2 Livonia map offers the perfect backdrop for any survivor lost in the wild.
The landscape, however, won’t be the only change of pace for DayZ players. The temperate late summer climate of Livonia will bring frequent rainfall and thunderstorms, providing players with additional environmental challenges during their travels – and making protective gear and shelter more important than ever. And, of course, with a new wilderness comes new wildlife. Most prominently, there is a new predator roaming the forests of Livonia – bears! – and they won’t take kindly to human-shaped threats. Survivors will have to be well-equipped to effectively deal with these grizzly foes.
DayZ is now available for the PS4, Xbox One, and PC. Are you excited for the upcoming second map? Let us know in the comments below!
