In the distant future, #killallzombies is thrusting civilians into a sport of survival were a ravenous zombie population is unleashed in the name of sports entertainment.

With the potential of a collective horde of over 1.000 zombies, television spectators vote upon how many and what kind of zombies or obstacles they want to un-cage to make survival all the more harder for you to accomplish.

The arena comprises of hundreds of hexagon shaped tiles that are capable of totally changing the dynamics of the gameplay by altering the landscape by spawning new obstacles, such as various cars and knives and others; hexagons temporarily caving in on themselves to create dangerous traps for civilians to cautiously navigate; hexagons temporarily raising from the ground to create a blockade that may keep some zombies out, but when they find their way around or if they are all already in front of the barrier, then you are in for a tough time fighting your way out of that horde; alongside many more ever changing hexagonal gameplay dynamics.

The update contains 4 new spectacular guns so that the player could kill even more zombies having more fun:

- Volcano gun (six-barrell-all-you-can-kill machine gun);
- Pepyaka gun (shoots with blue energy blasts which form an elegant explosions when they contact with the enemies);
- Spread gun (shoots with 5 energy blasts in wide and middle range);
- Flare rocket gun (rocket launcher alike);

These guns are extremely powerful and especially useful to defeat new fast and venomous boss, the CrusheRhino, which may seem indestructible from the first sight.
