Bohemia Interactive announced today that DayZ, which is currently available for Xbox One and PC, is finally coming to PS4 on May 29.
DayZ is an open-world online survival game that put players in a post-apocalyptic world. It was first released on Xbox One last March 27.
Here’s an overview of the game, via Bohemia Interactive:
Every day is a new story. This is DayZ — this is your story.
With the need to manage your character’s basic survival requirements and the looming danger of permadeath restarting your progress, DayZ is an exceptionally immersive game. Despite not directly featuring any storytelling mechanics, the post-apocalyptic open world of DayZ presents a unique online sandbox where every decision adds up, creating your own personal story. When all 60 players on a server engage in this completely unscripted survival scenario, the resulting emergent gameplay leads to intense player interactions — some action-packed and short, and some involving long, sophisticated roleplay with very real emotions that you remember long after.
Celebrating this unique storytelling aspect of DayZ, Bohemia Interactive premiered a cinematic CGI cinematic trailer that presents one example of the various stories DayZ can offer. Crossing ways with hostile bandits, overcoming injuries, plotting revenge and improvising during combat are all concepts very familiar to DayZ players. That, and a little bit of imagination — or willingness to fully immerse yourself into the world — will reward you with highly personal gameplay moments very close to this cinematic vision of DayZ.
DayZ is now available for Xbox One and PC, with the PS4 version coming next week.
