Saber Interactive and Focus Home Interactive are helping gamers around the world self isolate by making World War Zfree on the Epic Game Store until April 2nd. While Xbox One owners won’t be able to snag the game for free, it’s been marked down by 75% through the Deals with Gold program until March 30th.
The deal coincides with a major update for World War Z. New cosmetics, weapon variants, and gameplay balances have been implemented. The update’s highlight is the new crossplay feature enabling PC and Xbox One players to play PVE missions and Horde Mode Z together. Unfortunately PlayStation 4 players are getting left out on both the deal and the crossplay update; however, plans for enabling PlayStation 4 and PC crossplay is in the works.
