This free weekend is available now until Monday 6pm and will allow PC gamers the chance to download the Standard Edition and kick zombie bottom. Those players who decide to then buy the game will then be able to keep all the progress made during the weekend.
Also celebrating the anniversary of the game is the 2 week long Zombie Hunt event that will see the city of Harran beseiged by undead GRE operatives whose bodies have become mutated and extra resilient due to a special “GREcipe” boost potion. It will be up to players to rescue the endangered survivors, obtain extra supplies and kill lots of Zeds, in return players can earn in-game rewards including a blueprint for their very own GREcipe potion.
Techland has also released a new Harran Tactical Unit Bundle which is available to purchase for $2.99 on PC, Xbox One and PS4. This new unit is deployed to tackle high risk situations and use the right tools for their arduous task. The bundle includes:
- “Protector” Armor Skin, which boosts movement during night.

- “HyperArgument” Double-handed hammer with hyper-mode effect.
