[h3]Weapon Update[/h3]
In our last update, we introduced you to the Kar98, M1897, and Gustloff206. At that time, these weapons were still in development and not yet available in the game. Now, we're thrilled to announce that these weapons are fully operational. We're excited to show you their performance in action and how they can enhance your gameplay experience!

This is a rare example of a WWII German Prototype sheet metal semi-automatic rifle that was manufactured by Gustloff-Werke in Weimar. This design closely follows various other late war German designed rifles and pistols that were manufactured using sheet metal stampings and minimal machined parts.

[h3]Character Abilities Sneak Peek[/h3]
In the last development blog, we also introduced you to two of our characters and their unique abilities. Now, we're excited to unveil the final two members of our roster: Hans and Curtis. Each character brings their own distinct background and specialized skills to the table, adding depth and diversity to your gameplay experience. In this blog post, we’ll dive into the fascinating histories of Hans and Curtis, exploring what drives them and how their abilities can be utilized to survive the challenges ahead. Get ready to meet Hans, the meticulous scientist with his devastating flamethrower, and Curtis, the fearless ace pilot with his explosive flaregun traps.
Hans BergmannHans Bergmann hails from the serene spa town of Baden Baden, born into a family of aristocrats loyal to Emperor Wilhelm II. After the Great War and the Spanish Flu claimed his mother, Hans' father, Otto, became distant and cold. Seeking approval, Hans excelled at boarding school and piano but was pushed towards science to align with Germany's industrial rise.
Flamethrower X
- This Ability is essential for crowd control and survival against the zombie hordes. With it, Hans can unleash a torrent of flames, incinerating zombies in its path. Its range and damage make it perfect for clearing tight spaces and holding off large groups of enemies. The intense heat not only burns zombies but also causes panic and disarray among them, giving Hans a strategic advantage.
Curtis AshfordCurtis Ashford was born into a prestigious military family with deep ties to the United States Navy. His father, Captain Ashford, had high hopes for Curtis to follow in his footsteps. However, Curtis' passion for aviation led him to become a pilot, inspired by the strength and agility of the Golden Eagle. Curtis excelled at the Naval Academy and quickly proved his skills in the air, becoming an ace pilot during World War II.
Assigned to the 6th Fleet, Curtis flew Republic P-47 Thunderbolts and gained a fearsome reputation over Malta, earning over 15 confirmed kills. His aircraft, marked with a flaming skull, became a symbol of fear for enemy forces. Despite a tragic mission where he was the sole survivor, Curtis continued to serve with distinction throughout the war, flying P-51 Mustangs and participating in critical missions over Nazi Germany.
After the war, Curtis rose to the rank of Lieutenant Commander and was tasked with leading a top-secret mission to a hidden island in the southern ocean, where Nazi scientists conducted secret research. On this mission, Curtis utilizes his unique ability: the Flaregun X12 Prototype.
X12 Prototype
- The X12 Prototype is Curtis' ability, allowing him to set explosive traps. These traps detonate automatically when an enemy gets too close, providing strategic control over the battlefield. The X12 can be used to create choke points, ambushes, and defensive perimeters, making Curtis a versatile and tactical asset in any combat scenario.
