Slasher Deathmatch: Horror Icons Unleashed
In Slasher Deathmatch, survivors face off against slashers inspired by horror’s most terrifying villains, with Jason bringing brute force and Chucky delivering unpredictable terror. Each four-round match randomly selects two of eight players to become slashers, with unique abilities:
Jason’s Powers: Rage Mode immunity, teleportation to survivors, and relentless stalking with his iconic machete.
Chucky’s Abilities: Six lives, increased speed, and Combat Knife with Combat Axe for ranged attacks.
Haunted Havoc Transforms Zombies
The Haunted Havoc limited-time mode brings pumpkin-headed zombies with lurking Mimics and treat-filled Jack-o’-Lanterns across all six Zombies maps. Zombie health is reduced until Round 15, but their damage output increases faster than standard modes—creating a thrilling risk-reward balance.
Warzone Gets Spooky
Verdansk and Rebirth Island receive night variants, shrouding the Battle Royale maps in darkness. Zombie Royale returns with new features including the Mimic ability (disguise as objects), EMP Blast attacks, and Mutant Injection transformations that turn zombies into powerful Manglers.
The new Casual Z mode adds regular and armored zombies to both Battle Royale and Resurgence maps, creating chaotic PvPvE encounters.
