Projekt Z is an atmospheric zombie co-op FPS set in WWII with a diverse crew of soldiers, each with their own unique abilities, whose mission is to unravel the secrets of a Nazi experiment on a lush, remote island. Players will discover covert schemes related and unrelated to "Projekt Z" – a plan formulated by the Nazis to turn zombies into weapons to shift the war in their favor.

You have the Hideout, you can craft weapons, ammo, and other consumables here. You will also be able to build structures inside the Hideout (similar to Fallout 4's settlement building). From the Hideout, you start missions. Missions belong to a story arch and can influence each other, depending on the order in which you do them. An example: a mission where you clear the island's sewer system will lead to different zombie types appearing in other missions that otherwise were trapped in the sewer system.

Story arcs have a beginning and an end and shall not be stretched indefinitely. After all, the best stories are those that were planned with a definitive end in mind.

During missions, you can find items, building materials, and recruit personnel for your Hideout. Missions can be repeated for gathering more materials/loot.

“We are pleased to announce to the community that has supported us since the beginning of development that we've found an excellent partner in Modus Games and look forward to completing this passion project,” said Justin Miersch, founder and game designer at 314 Arts.

“Projekt Z is much more than your average cooperative shooter, and we are very excited to reveal its depth and uniqueness to fans of the genre,” added Shane Bierwith, president of Modus Games. “Together with the team at 314 Arts, we are eager to share more in the coming months.”
