Chernarus has once been a popular tourist destination. Now it’s a post-apocalyptic wasteland struck by an unknown epidemic – and you’re one of the survivors immune to the virus, desperately trying to make it through another day.

We’re excited to introduce you to the authentic open world of DayZ – available on PlayStation 4 in our most complete release so far! Get a quick intro to the gloomy, post-apocalyptic country of Chernarus in our brand-new live action trailer:

What if the zombie apocalypse actually happened?
DayZ is a persistent, 60-player online survival game. But when you immerse yourself into Chernarus, everything immediately feels disturbingly real. The fear of other survivors, the growling sounds of the infected, and the looming danger of permadeath makes you behave like you were actually there, surviving the apocalypse.

To achieve this feeling, we based many of the stunning locations you see across Chernarus on real places (as seen in the live action trailer!), and the environment design closely follows the landscape of a small region in the heart of Europe. DayZ is as real as it gets.

No laws, or rules – it’s pure survival
When society falls, it brings out both the worst and the best of mankind. In DayZ, we give players the ways and means to demonstrate what we’re capable of as human beings when following our basic survival instinct. There are all the ugly things of course (have you been force-fed a disinfectant spray before?), but at the same time, DayZ players can forge true friendships, or restore your faith in humanity through random acts of kindness.

How far will you personally go to survive? Are you a hero, or a bandit? The choice is yours. We don’t hold your hand or give you any artificial goals or rules to follow. The game is your playground, an online social experiment with one ultimate consequence for making bad decisions: in DayZ, when you die, you die.

This is DayZ, this is your story
A way to survive is to get a couple of friends together and play DayZ as an adrenaline multiplayer shooter, killing every survivor before they have the chance to get the better of you. You’ll have loads of fun (and loot!) for sure, but doing this, you’re missing out on the best: interacting with strangers and experiencing unscripted moments as they naturally enfold.

So while we don’t force you into anything, here’s a piece of advice on how to play DayZ: put yourself out there and try to talk before you shoot! From direct voice chat to public address system loudspeakers, DayZ offers a variety of communication tools to let the situation play out.

Yes, you will probably die often, but then, it’ll all click together once or twice, leaving you with an epic story to tell. And exactly this is DayZ – it’s your survival story. Make it a good one!
See you in Chernarus, Survivors!

It’s solo but you can still team up with your friends. You can team up with strangers as well. There’s really no end to the game. You just walk around and scavenge until you die.

It’s a solo game. There are no teams.

You and your friends can play together and act as a team. But you’re not officially on a team. You can kill him and take his shite and he can do the same to you.

I get that.

I get what you guys are saying now. My question was more “could I jump into a game with my buddies in the same server” not “could my squad jump in as a team”.

Welp. I’ve already talked one of my friends and possibly another into buying it. Looks like I’ll buy it too then

Really wish it was like $30. I want to give it a try but I can’t justify paying $50 for this when for an extra $10 I could buy a brand new AAA game.

Yeah I agree that the $30 dollar range is about right for this game but I've always heard they do a great job of adding things from time to time. The fact that it still gets played on PC after so many years is promising to me and why I got it.

Another shite show money grab from Bohemia, while the OG PC version is still only half finished and only playable with the help from the modding community.

Are you running it on the base PS4? I’m curious how it runs on that.

I ended up getting it.

Played for about 45 minutes this morning. Spawned not far from a little town along the coast line. Ran into there and got a vest, some .45 rounds and magazines, a shotgun. Healing items are going to be a pain the butt to find I feel like. I’ve gone through prob 15 houses and only found some alcohol I’m saving to use as disinfectant.

You really only need rags to wrap a wound. You can get those from scrapping ratted shirts with a knife.

Your blood levels and health pretty much just recover as long as you're hydrated and have enough nutrition.
