DayZ is a hardcore survival game where players must strive to endure a post-apocalyptic world populated by frenzied infected and other survivors. DayZ includes the original Chernarus terrain, and the Livonia terrain.
Chernarus – The iconic DayZ terrain, set in the post-soviet state of Chernarus and encompassing 230 km2 of hand-crafted environment based on real life locations.
Livonia – The dense 163 km2 map lets players experience the hardcore survival hit in a whole new environment. Players can put their survival skills to the test by venturing into the unfamiliar land of Livonia, and seeing just how long they can last in this deadlier-than-ever world.
Meet Others
Up to 60 players are struggling to survive by any means necessary at any given time. Make friends, kill on sight, build a base, or risk being betrayed over a can of tasty beans. Use VOIP to interact with other players however you see fit. Every encounter is meaningful when your life is always on the line. Be wary. Stay alert. Trust no one.
Survive Chernarus
The infected aren’t the only ones you need to worry about – there’s also the wildlife and elements. Evade packs of wolves and frenzied bears, find shelter from the punishing rain, search for light in the darkness of night. You’ll also need to master complex survival mechanics concerning your hunger, thirst, body temperature, and more.
Loot Up
Always make sure your gear is ready. Patch up damaged clothes, craft improvised items, and head out to deceptively dead cities to scavenge for valuable resources. Fix a car and hide it in your secret base under a cover of well-placed traps. Step into contaminated zones if you dare and keep your eyes peeled for precious loot. Don’t forget that you won’t get far without a full hazard suit and gas mask.
Take your Shot
Intense PvP action can break out anywhere at any time, especially in hotspots like abandoned military bases, where heart-pounding firefights are all the rage. Some survivors want your loot, others are simply hunting for sport. Then there are those who are afraid you’ll shoot first. Learn how to fight and know when the time has come to swallow your pride and flee. One bullet can change absolutely everything. Always watch your back.
Install Mods
Head on over to the Steam Workshop and find a customized server that fits. Join an active community of like-minded players and modify your DayZ experience to suit your taste. Browse thousands of fan-made features, maps, and guns – all of which are easily managed directly from the game launcher.
Enter Livonia
Teeming with wildlife, ruins, and hidden locations, Livonia offers 163 km2 of fields, forests, and mysterious landscape – a unique new experience that will appeal to newcomers and DayZ veterans alike.
Explore the Land
An exciting variety of undiscovered locations awaits the brave and adventurous. Explore murky swamps, abandoned hunting cabins, sawmills and deforested areas, as well as massive quarries containing stashes of leftover explosives.
Follow the bear
Livonia’s food supply is scarce. If you want to survive, you’ll have to learn how to hunt, fish, and forage in the unforgiving wilderness. Luckily, the land appears to be more alive now than it ever was before the apocalypse.
Discover the secret
Venture south and find the hidden entrance that leads to a mysterious underground complex. Make sure you’re with a friend while you look for a way in. And don’t forget to bring some supplies, especially a flashlight. Otherwise you might get lost in the darkened maze of corridors awaiting all who enter.

Absolutely Worth Buying - Don't Trust the Naysayers
I've poured thousands of hours into DayZ, and I can confidently say that this game is absolutely worth your time and money. Don't let the negative reviews from people who have only played for a few hours discourage you.
DayZ offers an unparalleled survival experience that few games can match. The vast open world, intense player interactions, and realistic survival mechanics create a gripping atmosphere that keeps you coming back for more. The learning curve can be steep, but once you get the hang of it, the game becomes incredibly rewarding.
The community is vibrant and varied, with many dedicated players who are just as passionate about the game as I am. Whether you enjoy PvP, base building, or simply exploring the beautiful, desolate landscape, DayZ has something for everyone.
One crucial aspect to consider is the server you choose to play on. Your choice of server can significantly impact your experience. Some servers focus on hardcore survival, while others offer more PvE or role-playing opportunities. Take the time to find a server that aligns with your play style to get the most out of the game.
I don't understand how people can compare Rust to DayZ. While both are open-world survival games, DayZ is rooted in realism and immersion, whereas Rust has a more arcade-like feel. The only real similarity is the survival aspect, but the experiences they offer are vastly different.
Yes, the game has its bugs and quirks, but the developers are constantly working to improve it. The frequent updates and new content keep the experience fresh and exciting.
In conclusion, DayZ is a must-buy for anyone looking for a deep and immersive survival game. Trust the opinions of those who have truly experienced the game and understand its depth and complexity. This game isn't for the faint of heart, but for those willing to invest the time, it's an unforgettable adventure.
