DayZ will probably be coming to Xbox Game Preview “at some point this year” and to PS4 “eventually” in response to the DayZ growth staff on Twitter.
Yes! Coming to Xbox Game Preview in some unspecified time in the future this yr, we’re unsure about PS4 but, however we’ll launch there too, finally – simply don’t know when but.

DayZ has been in Early Access alpha since 2013, and can hit Xbox Game Preview as soon as it launches in beta. The staff are at the moment engaged on replace zero.63 which introduces numerous core options to the sport. The significant update was slated to come out last year, but has been pushed because things like vaulting, swimming and vehicles weren’t ready for an experimental release.
Since it began life as an Arma 2 mode, a lot of DayZ’s protracted growth has centered on redeveloping the sport’s engine to extra carefully go well with its wants, eradicating pointless bloat and options and changing them with new ones.
Lead producer Eugen Harton offered an inventory of recent issues coming with the zero.63 replace in his November DayZ standing report.
The full checklist is as follows:
- New crafting
- New central economic system
- New zombies
- New animals
- Completely revamped ranged fight with far more handbook management
- Completely revamped melee fight with combos and evading mechanics
- New and fairly important map adjustments
- Diseases that “mix things up”
- Injuries that change your motion
- New motion and stealth
- Redefined spawns
- New injury system and hitzones for each gamers and animals
- New visuals for particles or blood
- New animation system that makes all the things “so frickin smooth”
- Remade buildings
- More gamers per server
- More zombies per server
- Fewer community points
- Stability fixes
