DEADGATE
You go onto an island full of zombies and rival squads on a contract. Finish the job, take the loot and get out before the clock strikes midnight.
Every raid is a contract
You go in with a job. The quarantine gate stays shut until it is done, and nothing in your bag is yours until you make it out alive.
Pick a contract
Region, difficulty and reward are on the table. Easy jobs pay little; hard ones send you into the heart of the city.
Risk your gear
You decide what to bring. Taking your best kit means accepting you might lose it.
Drop onto the island
The raid starts at 10:00. Zombies wander the streets, other squads are on the island and every shot is heard. The day keeps moving while you are inside.
Finish the job
Reach the objective and get it done. Only then does the exit gate unlock.
Get out before midnight
At midnight the island closes. Whoever fails to leave by the gate or the metro leaves everything behind.
Screenshots are from a development build and may not represent the final game.
The island
Roughly 1.5 km² of island: a city of towers, an old valley town, villages, industry, a military camp and a hospital. Four quarantine gates and three metro entrances are the only ways out.
- Kule Şehri — the towers, narrow streets
- Vadi Şehri — apartment blocks, town square
- Devlet Hastanesi — state hospital, medical supplies
- Askeri Kamp — military camp, weapons and armor
- Batı Sanayi — west industrial, warehouses
- Kuzeybatı Köyü — northwest village, quiet
- KD Çiftliği — northeast farm, greenhouses
- Hurda Kampı — scrapyard
- Kapı 1-4 — gates 1-4, contract exit
- Metro A / B / C — emergency exit
The in-game map (M). Your position is never shown on it during a raid. Place names are in Turkish.
