NEW UPDATE COMING SOON!
{STEAM_CLAN_IMAGE}/32399966/5690da0482837cffa35627d20a5a553f38e5097e.jpg After launching our latest mobile game VDV MATCH 3 RPG: ZOMBIES! ( Android / IOS ), we finally have time to get back to creating a new update for War Of The Zombie. One of the big new features of the upcoming update will be the introduction of the SDM1S KRAKEN (a SAFE built version of the SPRUT SDM-1). It's armed with a 125mm canon, drives through all water AND buildings. Although it has weaker armament and fewer PAX than the M60AS FORGER, it has a greater top speed and firing rate, making it the perfect gift for all those zombies and rebels. This little brute will be replacing the existing MGS THUMPER (which will be retired from the game), any Thumpers you already own will automatically be replaced by the SDM1S. Now you can finally deploy a tank from your Ark or FOB!Read full article on Community Announcements (vdvgames)Patch NotesOfficial
