[img]https://i.imgur.com/RnWnALV.jpg[/img] Dear Community, (Original Post: https://forums.fredaikis.com/index.php?/topic/8876-infestation-battle-royale-out-now/) We are proud to announce that Infestation: Battle Royale is now officially released and available to everyone on Steam. We would also like to take this moment to thank all of those who have supported us along the way.   You can play Infestation: Battle Royale in 2 ways: [list] [*] Through Steam at: [url=https://store.steampowered.com/app/1240290/Infestation_Battle_Royale/]https://store.steampowered.com/app/1240290/Infestation_Battle_Royale/[/url] or   [/*] [*] Through our Launcher which you can download at: [url=http://playnewz.com/download]http://playnewz.com/download[/url] [/*][/list]   For those with more further questions we have listed out an FAQ below: [list] [*] [b]What will happen to the current Battle Royale mode that is already available in Infestation: The New Z?[/b] What started out as a beta has now grown so big that we decided it's time to make Battle Royale its own game. BR will be lifted out of New Z before the release and added to the launcher and Steam as a separate game. By doing so we hope to raise the attention of new players, and also players who are into Battle Royale games but not necessarily survival.  For the patch set for early March/late February we are bringing a lot of new content both to The New Z and Battle Royale such as Colorado V1 BR, massive vehicle improvements, performance optimizations, 64-bit gameplay, new loot with new spawn mechanisms etc.   [/*] [*] [b]Can I still use my New Z Account? What will happen to my purchased content?[/b] Don't worry, you will still use the same account in order to log in. You will not lose anything from the splitting, all skins, sprays and other content which you've purchased in New Z will still be available in the new Battle Royale game.   [/*] [*] [b]OK, so the accounts will be linked?[/b] Correct, things like experience, season passes, account subscriptions will still be synced over both games, just like before. If you make a purchase in Infestation: Battle Royale it will be available in The New Z and vice versa.   [/*] [*] [b]What will happen to the older Battle Royale leaderboards from New Z?[/b] As this in a way means that Battle Royale is stepping out of Beta, hopefully with a great influx of new players - we feel that it makes sense to also reset the current leaderboards. This will be done on the Steam launch date - 4th of March - and high ranked players will be contacted and granted a special reward.   [/*] [*] [b]I don't play Battle Royale, how is this beneficial for me?[/b] Our hope is that this will as well raise the public's attention to New Z and that it will help bring an influx of players to both games!   [/*] [*] [b]What about New Z? Will it be left behind?[/b] NO! Together with the BR separation we are patching The New Z into patch 3.0! With the 64-bit additions and focus on performance improvements and bugs lately we think it's time for New Z to step into the next stage and we aim to bring you updates just like we have been for the past 4 years!  More info about patch 3.0 will come at a later stage!
