H1Z1 officially split apart into two games-Just Survive and King of the Kill-in February 2016. It will remain in Early Access, priced at $20, through the end of 2016. It offers the same open-world gameplay that was in place when the zombie-themed game originally launched in 2015. The price will go up to $30 come September 20, so if you're interested, you may want to pick it up now.ĭaybreak is also working on H1Z1: Just Survive, which is basically the regular H1Z1 game as you already know it. King of the Kill's PC version sells for $20 through Steam Early Access. "By structuring the plan in this way, we ultimately will achieve higher-quality targets and not put the game in a situation where we have to compromise quality to hit a date."

"We are creating a competitive game that is consistent, predictable, fair, and as fun to watch as it is to play," he said. Wynn went on to say that Daybreak refuses to compromise on quality, even if that means delaying something as it did with King of the Kill's console versions. We have been able to make essential updates to the gunplay, combat, and vehicles, get the new map in a state to go live, and add lots of polish to the core areas of the game."

It was definitely a tough decision, but I think it was the right one to make. "As a result, I have decided to pause our efforts on the console versions and put 100% of the focus on to the PC version of the game for right now.

"It became clear that to best line up the game for success was to reduce the number of variables in the equation," Wynn said. Producer Chris Wynn said in a blog post today that the studio was "spread too thin" trying to work on the PC and console versions at the same time, all of which were made internally. In February, Daybreak said King of the Kill would launch digitally for PS4 and Xbox One this summer. One of these is "Battle Royale," which was created by community member PlayerUnknown.
