A remake of the post-apocalyptic MMO starring zombies – Infestation: Survivor Stories – developed by Hammerpoint Interactive, creators of the original game. The production was originally known as WarZ; however, following the accusations of plagiarism and conflict with creators of the World War Z film, it was modified in many ways, resulting not only in a change of the game's title, but with introduction of major changes into the game's underlying concept. The new version is an attempt to re-implement the original ideas as the authors initially envisioned them. The game tells the same story, and the changes affected mainly gameplay mechanics. Among others, the entire process of character creation and progression, crafting system and elements of individual missions, were remodeled. Free access to the inventory was slightly limited, and so was the frequency of firearms deployments, introducing instead a possibility to freely modify the latter. Premium accounts were also removed from the game and a special system for items exchange and trade between the players was created in their place.
