Для DayZ вышло дополнение с картой «Ливония», которая подходит для тех, кто хочет чаще встречать других выживших. Плюс здесь куда меньше припасов, а также частые дожди и грозы.

Кроме того, игра получила обновление с новым оружием, рыбалкой и медведями.
Размер новой территории составляет 163 квадратных километра.
