Gamers of World War Z: Aftermath on the PC, Xbox Series X|S, and Xbox One may now obtain a bonus in-game weapon skin as well as an unique collectable trinket by registering on PROS (Prism Ray Online Services). PROS is a new platform that will enable online services for a number of forthcoming games from a wide variety of game providers, including select upcoming titles from Saber Interactive.
The New York map is described as while the military works to retake the city, a group of survivors holed up in a high-rise office building in Manhattan must make it out of the city alive, despite the fact that the city’s buildings, streets, and subways are overrun with zombies.
And as far as Jerusalem’s goes, in order to activate a weapon system on a satellite facility that has been abandoned, a military group has to retrieve a prominent scientist from the destroyed city.
This new update is available today on PlayStation®5, PlayStation®4, Xbox Series X|S, Xbox One, and PC. You can view the new trailer for this update released just this morning below.
