We’re not sure what this means for the players who already bought the game but there are probably a few special benefits set aside for them. With H1Z1 spent so much time in Early Access, this is probably the best way to garner attention, encouraging more players to try it out and probably staying to invest some money long-term. Even PlayerUnknown’s Battlegrounds commanding the player base that it does isn’t enough to unseat free to play titles like Fortnite: Battle Royale. It’s an interesting move to say the least but somewhat expected.
The change is going into effect today at 10 AM PST. After finally emerging from Early Access, the developer has now announced that H1Z1, along with its free vehicle-based Battle Royale mode “Auto Royale” will be free to play. It started out as a single zombie survival title before splitting into two games, Just Survive and King of the Kill. H1Z1 will also undergo optimization for PlayStation 4 hardware, with the PlayStation 4 Pro to run the battle royale title at 60 frames per second.H1Z1 is – or was – quite the paradox for Daybreak Game Company.
The airdrops will be released throughout the map, with rare drops containing level 2 and level 3 equipment to make light radio noises when nearby. Similar to the PlayerUnknown's Battlegrounds blue zone, the feature shrinks the safe areas over the course of the match to bring players closer to each other.įor the PlayStation 4 version, supply drops will become the primary way to acquire high-powered weapons and armor. According to Daybreak, the removal of the feature for the PlayStation 4 version will allow the game to focus on the action and quicken the pace.ĭaybreak will also make the deadly gas zones move faster for the PlayStation 4 version. On the PC, H1Z1 players may break down clothes and helmets into materials that may be used to create armor and weapons. First and foremost, the control scheme will change, with a radial inventory menu, a streamlined user interface, and a simplified looting system.Ī major change for the PlayStation 4 is that the crafting system, a core gameplay feature for H1Z1 on the PC, will not be making the jump to the console. H1Z1 for the PlayStation 4 will not be a simple port of the PC version of the game, as there will be several console-specific adjustments.
Perhaps the best part is that H1Z1 will be a free-to-play game, which should give it at least a fighting chance against Fortnite. For gamers who prefer to wait for the open beta, at least the wait would not be too long. PlayStation 4 owners who are interested in signing up for the H1Z1 closed beta may visit the dedicated page on the game's website and provide their email address and country. Daybreak Games, the game's developer, has now announced that the last-man-standing shooter will be arriving to the PlayStation 4, beginning with a closed beta this month and followed by an open beta starting May 22.
