H1Z1 Survival Hardcore MMO

H1Z1, is Sony Online Entertainment's first attempt at creating a zombie-survival title, and will incorporate many of the same mechanics that players have become familiar with in popular Steam Early Access projects like DayZ Standalone and Rust. In H1Z1, players will start out foraging for supplies and hunting the local wildlife -- a list of animals that will include everything from cattle to wolves -- before moving on to the now zombie-infested remnants of human civilization.

Unlike Rust or DayZ, functional firearms will be incredibly rare in H1Z1, and players will frequently be forced to work with other players if they hope to take down a sizeable group of zombies (or fellow survivors). For the most part, melee weapons will be your primary means of dispatching the undead, and players will be able to craft a wide variety of blunt and edged weapons once they've collected the proper materials.

Players will also be able to work together in groups to lure crowds of zombies away from the towns, abandoned highways and other locations likely to have H1Z1's most-valuable supplies, offering an incentive for teamwork that doesn't currently exist in most of the game's existing competition.

In time, you'll even find the parts necessary to breathe new life into an automobile; giving you and/or your friends a faster means of getting around the world of H1Z1. The most successful players/groups will likely end up with a fleet of such vehicles, and enough player-protected parking for however many automobiles it takes to keep their post-zompocalyptic society afloat.

Like any high-budget multiplayer offering, H1Z1 will boast an elaborate clan/guild system at some point down the line, but those features won't be included when the game hits Steam Early Access next month. The studio also plans to continue expanding the H1Z1 map over time, eventually adding an increasing number of cities, towns, military bases and other assorted locales to what will eventually be an enormous land mass. Should the game prove sustainable for long enough, Smedley says the team could even add non-U.S. locations at some point down the line.
