This Is Your Story

DayZ is a hardcore, survival-focused multiplayer sandbox. Thrown into post-apocalyptic wastelands, you have a singular goal: survive. There are no missions or quests. Your story will be written by facing the unpredictable challenges created by the environment, the infected, and your interactions with other survivors. Every decision is yours. This is your ultimate survival story.

Survival of the Fittest

You will be dropped into brutal post-apocalyptic lands filled with a violent "infected" population. You and up to 59 other players are among the immune few, competing or cooperating to gather limited resources.
Will you team up with strangers and become stronger together, or play as a lone wolf to avoid betrayal?

No Skill Trees but Your Own

There are no map markers, mini-maps, or waypoints. You must navigate using your instincts and knowledge of the landmarks.
Diagnose your own illnesses and find the right treatment, or manage your immune system to recover. Search every building for your next ration, bandage, tool, or weapon.
Loot is life here, but death is permanent. When you die, you lose everything and start from scratch!
