World War Z Horde mode is out now, get all the patch notes here

World War Z has received a brand new update as Saber Interactive rolls out the Horde mode. In this new co-op mode players will need to work together to face off against waves of zombies. These waves are endless and each one will get harder until players are finally overrun. As players survive waves they will get rewarded resources that can be then spent on weapons, which are randomised, and other items such as med kits, defence kits, and equipment. Completing objectives linked to each wave also earns extra resources.

Resources aren’t the only way to get weapons and equipment as there will be moments of quiet to explore the maps, and hidden in some areas will be bonus loot to use without spending resources. The new wave of zombies adds a new type called the Bomber, which explodes if it gets close to you. You can check the full patch notes after the trailer.
